We're down two players, this could be a game changer. Harris scores from a set shot.

Dees 3.4.22
Blues 3.1.19

 

And just like that Blues are in front from a snap.

Dees 3.4.22
Blues 4.1.25

Hore shanks a dolly on goal, we've missed some great chances.

 

We've had two balls going in on goal only for ridiculous bounces to deny us.

Cunningham seems to have lost all ability. Shaping as another St.Kilda game as another chance wasted on the siren.


Cunningham has been woeful. So many perfect one on one chances.

And Newman should have given the ball off or kept running. Two goal turnaround 

Bloody hell - the second I tune in: another knee injury, Bloos kick 2 goals to hit the front and we miss a soda. 

3 quarter time.

Dees 3.4.23
Blues 4.1.25

 

Gee some easy misses that quarter, Newman, Cunningham and Hore and O’Dea’s bounced 180 degrees...it will be a miracle if we get up.

Carlton were very good that quarter and probably could have had more chances turned into goals, but equally we had some great chance that we absolutely shanked. Frustrating, I can see us losing this by under a kick and looking back on those chances feeling we should have won.

One quarter to go, down two players could be tough.


This is that game we always have at least once a year. More of it, more scoring shots, and we get done. 

Blues get the all important first goal.

Dees 3.4.23
Blues 5.2.32

Smashed on the outside, wasteful once inside 50. O'Dea is a liability once they get it on the outside. 

Game over i'd say.

Dees 3.6.24
Blues 6.2.38


Disappointing result, we were so clearly the better team at half time. Really should've been in front by 3 more goals but failed to make use of our dominance, our players were exhausted by the end being down two rotations and in the end when we had our chances we butchered them. 

Puts us back to the pack and outside the finals spot, lots of work to be done. 

That may be season over. Carlton one game ahead of us now, and we have Freo and Suns to come. They have Freo and WC.

Looks like we'll be dudded by the conference system again

Bum

Again our old nemesis our forward line conversion and skill 

For the umpteenth time has enough chances but lack skill in finishing 

Please Melb recruit footballers not other players from other codes that MAY be good sports but don't have the footballers instincts.

Desperately need a skilled forward who gets 6 touches and 3 goals 

Cunningham lucky to be on team as no other big forward Give her a run around Th r ground yo get into the game please 

Mivk Stinnear must surely be coaching fir his job in the last 2 games as he has had 4 years of non success to make finals 

Injuries have not hrlped ageing today but same old story of lost chances.

Mickey at least 3 times per year every year fir 4 years in a row!! We are too dependent upon forwards marking as skill to kick goals on run us almost impossible for us !


Really looked slow and unfit. The injury toll is really hurting us.

Maybe that had something to do with 2  injured players off the ground in the last half  And about 4 ACL injuries this season !

A game of two halves (as they all are, but you know what I mean).  We ran out of players, and (consequently) legs in the second half. Four, and possibly five ACLs  in a season is just [censored] luck, no matter how you spell it !

Can't see how the conference system has done us. Injuries and lack of finishing would be more to the point.. We still had our chances to kick goals and stay in front but lack of composure and more likely skills let us down plus a certain tallish lady in forward line is having a shocker.

Cunningham wasn't the only one to have a shocker O'Dea was terrible too.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
