    Spargo playing maybe his 15th game. I think he has had a great first season, and while he wasn't brilliant today, he wasn't disgraced. Think you're being a little harsh.

    A lot of Tyson's touches today were very effective.  He played a very good game despite a couple of stereotypical Dom floaters.

    The defence : Magnificent

    Midfielders : Gave a lot

    Forwards : Very good.

    Weiderman : Best game ,provided marking/competitive option.

    Lewis : Cool Head Luke

    Jetta :Build a statue

    Brayshaw : Leave your hat on. You are too essemtial to us .

    Oliver : Best phonebox footballer ever ( Never ever thought I would quote BT)

    I think you have been very kind this week Joe Boy. As you should

    Spargo was very ordinary and should not be in the side.

    Agree he has a crack and uses it well , will be a 100- 200 game player

    A lot of us said he needed the rest and JKH should have played instead.

    They ran the ball out of our forward line without any pressure and that was his role and ANB's.

    Spargo as I said before will be a good player for us.

    As for ANB he is a game killer for us. His turnovers and fumbles are so momentum shifting.

    I don't know about his grunt work I hardly saw him lay a tackle, or get close to an opponent, except when he had the ball and then turned it over.

    Anyway well done guys you deserve your finals chance after a very good year.

    Win next week and we get the chance to pay back the Cats on the G.

    Proffer a replacement that will stand scrutiny or keep quiet and support the kid

    JKH should never play a game again list clogger I'd take Spargo any day of the week over him. Spargo wasn't too bad.

    Your sizeism is tiring, Bugg was at Casey and poor, Spargo was in Perth

    He was poor today plain and simple did not mater how tall he is. I said nothing about his height.

    the simple fact is he did pull his wait.

    First year player who is clearly showing the signs of having played too many games. Badly in need of a rest.

  • Quote

    I thought all 22 did well.

    Tyson was good, so I'll put that down to the usual tiresome sledging he cops.

    Spargo wasn't bad, but wasn't good either. His spot could be up for grabs going into finals if the likes of Garlett really get going again, but I'm beginning to lose faith that could happen.

    Hogan - Was not missed

    Petracca - Went missing late

    Spargo - Not AFL standard (yet)

    Melbourne - Speed achilles heel

    Kent - Bad and good

    Frost - Makes us better

    West Coast - Few keys out

    Weed - Break-out game

    Salem - Rarely wastes it

    Hibberd - Most important defender

    TMac - Goody used wisely

    Jetta/Clarry/TMAC/Gawn/Brayshaw - Need a paragraph

    Tyson - Joe Boy Correct

     

     

    I have never knocked Tyson for memory, but today he frustrated me a little.  Running into traffic for a hand-ball receive.......is obviously slow and takes on the tackler too much, yet has difficulty breaking a tackle.

    I'm with Joeboy.  Today's game was nothing to write home about for Dom.

     

    BTW, I aint a Tyson-hater.

     

    How the hell did Frost stay at Casey for most of the year, and why did we sell the farm for Lever?

    I though spargo lost us the game last week against the Swans and almost this week through his inexperience. This can’t happen in finals. For me, Jesse Garret needs to come in for him.

    He needs to get fitter, needs to streamline his body, more muscle, he’s an 18 year old kid and will be a good midfielder in future

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
