a lot of positives so far tonight, playing well as a team. poor disposals are still there but not as many and not hurting us as badly as past weeks.  we certainly in with a chance regardless of the umpires.

 

Petty looks a player. Hasn't done much but a good intercept Mark and a few spoils nice size looks composed..

    We went in undercooked this year but I wasn’t expecting it to include the coaching staff.

    They’ve evolved.

    Lacking the polish that would have us almost home

    But loving the aggressive movement through the middle

    This is what I don’t understand, how isn’t this addressed, Carey, BT, Dunstall have all spotted the issue, yet he’s shanking them left and right every week.

     

    Trac needs to chat to a specialist goal kicking coach, clearly Melbourne don’t have one.....

    No he needs to see a psychologist. This is purely mental. He is terrified of missing and you can see it clearly in his face.

    Ok we are still in front, they are potentially 2 down. We need to take advantage of that. I like our run and play on but sometimes I feel we are doing one to many handballs where we should just be getting it long. 

    I like how Baker went in to stand up for harmes in that quarter. 

    If we can get 2 or 3 goals from Trac and Tommy finds his 1st quarter form we can hold on. 

    Maxy is rucking brilliantly. 

    Come on dees we can do this.

    Needs to talk to Russell Robertson. I remember he went through a similar faze earlier on in his career, fixed it up and become one of our most accurate kicks for goal.

    We lost our energy after that small break in play. Hopefully we can capitalise this qtr

    100%

    from memory he lowered his ball drop, learned to take a big breath before beginning his approach, and relax then kick through it

    Couldn’t hurt as he is putrid at the moment. Makes Casboult look like a dead eye.

    Trac is a good long kick. 

    But his kicking for goal whether from a mark or snapping or on the run is horrible. He needs help

    Incidentally, Elliot Yeo is up to ten tackles at half time.  Say what you will about his ducking cheating rubbish wehn he has the ball, he's putting in the effort. 

    I hope one day he ducks and someone actually really hurts him. Cheat!

    I love the way we are playing this game. I like the games of Baker, Petty and also T. Smith.


    Come on Melbourne 


    Stretch's kicking inside 50 ....blah !!!   TRAC THAT IS [censored] RUBBISH!!!!

    I don’t think we’ll win this but this has been reassuring. May Lever Jetta melk Hannan and we’re back

    OTOH please can we get pe-trarckarh’s kicking sorted

    Would love a straight drop punt......yes!!!! Jeffy alleluia alleluia

    • 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.
