    Well, what to make of it?

    I thought we were done 10 minutes into that term and then... we just clicked a bit.  We tackled harder, won the clearances and, for the first time this season, took our chances!!

    What it means is that we are well and truly in this contest.  If we keep up this hard work then we are every chance.

    How we are only 4 points down is amazing. Some great inspiring goals by the Skips.

    six, but much of a muchness

    we should be at least five goals down; our accuracy keeping us close thus far this year

    Wow. We should be down by at least 8 goals. But we are right in it

    Big 20 minutes in the rooms

    How much do the boys want a win???

    The whole commentary team have just been waiting for us to stuff up so they can say how loose and leaky we have been.

    I don't think we have been playing great but neither have the Swans and they haven't been all all year so far.

    Yes incredible at times it looked like blowing out.


    They still seem to score the ‘easy’ goals. Where as we look like we work so much harder to score. 

    If we can start to win the clearances then hopefully the one armed monster can create a contest and give spargo melksham and co and crumbing chance. 

    Cmon Dees.

    Key to that quarter was a willingness to taking the dangerous kick on. Apart from Fritz it was non existent in the first.

    Got lucky with a few of those snaps in the pocket but that will generate confidence which we desperately need.

    Jones being moved into the middle has been well overdue.

    We were good in the second quarter last week too. Need to actually show up in the second half.

    we are playing so damn poorly, very few players actually playing well and we are still in the game, thanks to their poor kicking for goal.

    i just wish they would stop this zone defence and man up. When sydney runs and gets the overlap like every other team that has played us this year we are toast.

    If Jones is to play it must be up forward - useless elsewhere.

    Hibberd is gone. Hore showing something.

    Wagners will never be any good.

    OMac just horrible.

    Lucky to still be in this game. Our skills are sub VFL standard. Luckily the Swans Are just as bad and haven’t converted.

    The optimism i can take out of this is that our midfield can only get better. They started to show signs in the last 5 minutes. If it continues, we will win this game.

    Brayshaw has to present himself this next half.

    Are you agreeing with me now?

    I never disagreed. I just hate it when supporters attack players in such a personal way. Even if it’s just a figure of speech I would never suggest shooting a player. None of them are out there trying to be bad.

    Gee who would have thought Pruess and Jones would be our leading goalkickers

     

    Our third terms have been our achilles heel all season.  You could argue, on the scoreboard anyway, that we've still been in the contest for our first three games at half time and fallen away badly after that.  We need to turn the tide this week and come our firing.

    • 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.

      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

      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.
