Ha, ha. Which one? Perhaps all three!

He actually forgot his underwear before the 1999 French Open, and didn't want to take up his coach's offer of wearing his, so he played without any. Because he won he decided to never wear underwear again!

I guess there was none for sale at the tournament ?  frilly knickers, non ?

    That would be coaching 101 to have T Mac playing as a defender tonight.

    Coaching 101 is also not to start throwing players around because the whole team is under-performing, or to start shuffling players who are down on form.

    (Though with May, Lever and O'Mac out, and the next generation not ready, the rule book could be ripped up.)

    King of the bleeding obvious- Cameron Ling. "Melbourne must win tonight." Spare me.

    Painful isnt it....

    Interested to see if we stick to the zone defence guarding space. Never liked it because requires everyone to know exactly where to position themselves and be able to adjust on the go with awareness of what's happening around you. Don't have the confidence that all our players have the smarts or instinct for this...

    T Mac and Frost walked out together, warmed up together for a while, walked back in together chatting the whole way.

    Backline Bros tonight?

    With any sense... straight to the pub !!

    Any reason why after years of linking arms around each other’s shoulder for the national anthem and Anzac ceremony we decided not to do it this year?

    So does that mean we're left with Weids and Bull up front? It won't matter how many i50s we have tonight in that case.

    Depends how we use it going forward, and how often we make a contest.  If we can at least break even in a marking contest and get it to ground, you would hope the additions of Garlett and Lockhart would go someway to helping us create some pressure and to keep the ball locked in there, which is what we want.

    But if we bomb it to 2 or 3 on 1s, then we're in trouble.  Big trouble.

    I saw that and thought instantly 'I wonder which poster will bring that up on Demonland?'.

    You didn't disappoint.  Means nothing.  We did it last year and lost, so it makes no difference.

    I was thinking Lockhart goes back as the Jetta replacement. We'll know soon enough. I don't have much faith in us doing anything other than bomb it in at the moment.


    Any reason that woman interviewing Hardwick was wearing a Dressing Gown? budget cuts...

    I'd love to see T Mac down back tonight.  I know he has the odd brain fart moments, but he brings some experience and we know he can match it with the best.  It might help to bring back some confidence in his game as well.

    Needs to find some form somewhere why not.  T Smith out of the square.

    Low long raking kicks get there quicker and create more chaos.  Quick bail out kick if no early options coming inside is ok but at least go long & low so the opp can't intercept as easy and chaos when it hits the deck...

    Good luck Demons!

    • 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.
