GAMEDAY - Semi Final

Featured Replies

Our decision making and skills are killing us. Midfield getting beaten, but where in front if our midfield lifts in the second half we should win.

 

Half time couldn't have come soon enough.

Time to readjust and realize not everything is one for the highlight reel.

Our short passes have been criminal.

If we don't fix it (and improve our inside 50s), we won't be so lucky, because I doubt the Hawks will miss those chances in the 2nd half.

We've been given a lifeline here. We don't really deserve that lead, but we have to make it count!

 

From our defensive 50 that quarter most times we kicked it out back to them. Need to run it out with handball or kick to a one on one, not an outnumber.

Classic clash of game styles.

Lot of players need to lift a lot of work to be done yet.

ANB Dom and Gus too.

Forgot Tyson. I think ANB May be on Smith who has SFA

They’re tagging Gus. 

We need more from Milkshake and Trac. They’re giving us SFA.

Oliver did not stage. Commentators are morons.

It's all over Twitter. Fox footy saying he dived, AFL Nation asking people if he flopped. 

It’s Whorethorn pressure we have to beat. This is not Home and Away Footy...

We can get better

Spot on.

Anyone who thinks that Oliver flopped, I’m very happy for them to stand with legs evenly apart in front of me and I’ll hit them front on.

Tyson is so bad.. jogging to contests and when in the action, looks slow. Vanders looks stuffed!

Hard to fathom we are winning. I dont think we have plkayed anywhere near our best. Lets hope we do our 3 quarter blitz and not ay pn their terms.

Make space. Hit the targets. Don’t kick to the outnumbered player. 

Do the above and we will win.

I agree was basically a basketball charging foul situation.  I don't think it should have been a free in AFL football, but it would have been very hard for Oliver to stay upright.

Would rather be in our position than theirs. Run them into the ground this quarter.


Anyone wondering if Mitchell will win the Brownlow- I can confirm the umpires notice him.

Lucky to be in front, need to lift across the board really 

Yep! We're playing very ordinary footy, and we're winning (thanks to Hawks wasting chances), just imagine if we get our ship together!

Oh well, we are ahead. Melksham and Hannan need to lift. And Tyson is useless

the Hawks setup took the running early and they have controlled most of thre play IMO.

 

I'm glad that Goody hasn't shown his hand YET.  by making panic moves...  I feel like we've started to adjust to the hawks setup and intensity.

 

I think we can lift from here... but as Lew said, we have to get in harder & lower for the ball, and win the contests... bang more bodies D's.

    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.

    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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
