Great first quarter, but boy Brayshaw couldn't have done much worse in that last 1 minute of play! Especially after kicking such a fantastic goal!

No. Just very slippery.

Isn’t that two quarters in a row we have won.  A first this year I think

Where was this effort last week?

Jeffy has looked lively, although I wish he'd use his chances more. Promising stuff from Weid, Baker and Hunt. Brayshaw has looked good here and there but geez he looks so horribly down on confidence, hopefully that goal helps.

If I had a dollar for every time OMac lost his feet...

Commentators mentioned that there was not a breath of wind at the beginning of the match. Ball seems very wet though and players are comically dropping it.

That was a pizzweak effort from o Mac then. Lucky Jenkins is an equally inept footballer

Gus, Clarry and Trac are all on so far. Makes a big difference. 

A couple of efforts from bailey last in the Q to make up for a poor Q

So can we safely say that there is no such thing as holding the man, around the neck or dropping the ball in the AFL?

Well apart from a few dumb frees that was a good quarter. Weid looks good and happy to have Hibbard back in the backline. Lets keep it going. Maxy dominating the ruck.

Makeshift backline could be our undoing here. The question is going to be if we can kick a big enough score to overcome the goals we're going to leak up the other end. Still, at least we're kicking goals and looking like a decent team. Next week with More, Salem, May and Lever in ... look out.

I'm liking our forward entries. Finally, the boys are running into good spaces, we're lowering the eyes a little and not being so damn predictable. 

I tipped us tonight. Just goes to show, if you tip us enough, sometimes you're 1/4 right!

Depends on how much the crowd yells

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
