11 rounds in  and it has finally clicked.  But still a half to go.

Get the job done  vs Crows and  then get back possibly all of Lever , May and Salem for QB.  Finals will be in our sights.

Effort in the last third of that quarter was brilliant. Everyone cracked in hard. Few skill errors/decisions and we could be another three goals up.

Just slow cooked and ate the most amazing lamb shanks whilst watching the footy. 

At last our football is looking as tasty as those shanks. 

Let’s keep it up boys!

Forward line looks Dangerously dangerous for the first time in a while.

Jeffy and Weed doing great.

I thinks sometimes it’s just finding that perfect balance.

A good quarter. Oliver and Gawn just smashing it. Hannan does look a tad rusty but that's to be expected first game back. 

Them losing Sloane helps. Memo to the ch7 camera man. Keep it on the footy. Christ nearly missed Jeffy's goal when Petracca passed it over because we had to see Pyke in the coaches box. 

anyway lets keep it going melbourne. So far so good.

Crows have applied basically no pressure so far. Our midfield is dominating.

Game would be over if Tom Lynch wasn’t playing. He’s been there only really good player. 

Sloane out is big - need to take advantage of this and put it beyond doubt this 3rd qtr.

A lot of players that were copping early flak from you lot, have done some redeemable things. All except one. Are we watching Omac’s last game tonight?

This year, shank has had a completely different meaning for us. Thanks for reclaiming it for a much greater purpose.

Yep, been better than the likes of Spargo, Stretch and Hannan.

I was thinking Stretch was playing a role in defence and on the wing rather well. But there you go.

Hot Slippery conditions is going to really stretch the fitness of the group later in the night. They’re down Sloane, which is a lucky break fr us. Go dees. Let’s bring this one home and light up a bit of hope fr the season!

Looks like the Viney of Old so far.

Marking, tackling and kicked a goal.

This is exactly the style of play that got us into finals last year and boy when it clicks like it has so far then we look bloody impressive.

JKH with 12 disposals and really cracking in. Not bad for a bloke in his 2nd game from missing 8 weeks of footy.

Nathan Jones down back for me is a big win so far. Bilky Stretch also doing well down there also.

Jeffy back to his brilliant Jeffy best

I [censored] love Frosty

No I am not.

He always make a good contest and puts in good second efforts.Sometimes it not just kicks and marks.

He came in last minute and is putting in a good show, even Darcy has been giving him a rap.

Jones looking good at half back apart from that Galluci moment where he just pointed instead of going to defend him himself.

Are you being serious?

Just a coup,e of minutes ago i i heard the ABC radio commentators giving him a big wrap. Yuo know, paid objective observers 

Doing his job. Again. Laid a couple of crunching tackles late in the lst quarter too which should satisy his critiics who think he is not aggressive enough

Watch with your eyes not your confirmation bias.

    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.
