As the game gets closer, I get less and less confident. 

We have a few underdone players and I worry about their forwardline. 

The mids will win it as always. On paper our midfield looks a class above theirs, but this is Melbourne. We could equally win or lose by 100 points. 

Feels like this new season has crept up on us very quickly. Must be because we actually played past August last year. 

Lose by 100??? You have no idea what you are talking about

Maybe I should list the side that played 3 years ago for your comparison. It’s chalk and cheese. We are essentially 2 players off full strength 

Really?  Go your hardest.

To save you a bit of time, the bench for the Round 23 game 3 years ago was Salem, Stretch, Harmes and Matt Jones.  That was a team that lost by 100+ points.

I would take that bench (even at that stage of their careers) any day over the one we have named for tomorrow.

If I was a Port supporter, I'd be worrying that Ken Hinkley hasn't realised this is Round 1 and is instead picking a team to help him win a game of Scrabble.

Gold!

I'll go one step further, if you think this side is 2 players off full strength, then I don't think we have any chance of winning the premiership this year.

Reports that Ryder has been knocked around by his injury, lost weight because he hasn't been able to eat properly etc....so even if he does play he's not going to be 100% by the sound of it


Less than a day to go.

Not feeling so confident about tomorrow after an uninspiring pre-season performances, but the fundementals are there for the season ahead as a whole.

Get the win Demons and start building towards finals 2019.

A fine drop.

Jasper Hill is not bad and also Paul Osicka. The latter hard to find but is worth the trouble. 

Buy the Osicka from Nicks at $29.99 at the moment....

The first winery I ever visited, in 1975. I was a Rose and Port frinker, asked Mrs Osicka for a rose. She hissed they didn't make one. I asked for the port. She rolled her eyes and said, We don't make a port.

Them were the days....

We have 19 of the 22 we beat Geelong with in the elimination final last year.

I'm supremely confident we win this game.

35 point margin is my tip.


At least Ollie Wines won't tear Viney a new one...

I'm tipping Ryder will have a tough time tomorrow with it being 31 degrees while wearing that giant stackhat on his head. Surely he won't be clunking them with it also obstructing his vision slightly. 

MFCSS: Obstructed vision = blinder.

If it's affecting his weight Re nutrition intake, they may not play him...   if he's lost weight,  it's probably pointless to play him, and could set him back further.

The 3 debutants for Lewy Vanders and  Hannan.

Rarely have I seen debutants get a guernsey for so  little form and style.

But I remember Greg Wells debuted with No form at end of 1969 (I think) was nearly BOG and hardly ever missed another game so here's hoping 

Good Luck Tom Corey And Marty.

Hunty for Tyson also makes 18 out of 22!

Yes, and that perennial thorn in the side Justin Westoff, at 199cm , tests our height.

Danger game big time for me.

Love Fritsch being in as he can play tall.

I missed out on concerns re; max which west coast worked out in the prelim playing 2 talls and Preuss being left out, or anyone else that can ruck apart from Weid.

I hope they think about what appears to be an Achilles heel for max on a smallish sample size so far but relevant.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
