Good luck Jacko, Rivo and Benno!!

Dees by 20 pts relax we got this.

Oh and Hunt to play dangerous forward crumber!

 

I expect the guys to be a bit rusty, and somewhat scrappy with "connection". I'll be OK with this if we give a 4 quarter effort.

The amount of games I've been to where it appears we put the cue in the rack after getting out to a three goal lead early in the game.....

Do it for Nev. And me.  

Just saw the pre game Zoom with Mahoney. Sounds like Hunt will be spending more time up forward for speed around the contest. Has a point bit to prove, would love to see him snag a couple. 

 

An unintended consequence of no AFL for the 1st part of the year was the rest of the family's disinterest in it becoming vocal. AFL in the past had always been unspoken priority, but Id lost my privileges. By yesterday i could sense a gritty losing battle.

Enter a 70" Ultra HD 4K TV for the man cave. My barely used BetEasy account with $2 left (thanks Demons) has led to Kayo being added as a free App for 3 months. Just finished setup connecting with the LAN. Me and my new scarf are chafing at the bit. C'mon Demons!

I had a crumpet for the first time in probably thirty years. Hoping it's not a omentaphor for our defensive structure.

As he should. 
We lack goal kicking avenues up forward and Hunt proved himself to be a handy goal kicker for a lot of last year. Anyone remember the winning goal he kicked last year in the same game from outside 50?

Its forward or bust for Hunt IMO.

This sounds like a silly question to ask, but are all games at Marvel with the roof closed through this covid period rail, hail or shine?

Correct... The open roof plays havoc with the TV coverage

Terrible stadium but we're stuck with it

I heard a few weeks ago that the roof will be closed for most if not all games at Marvel.

Expecting it to be closed today.

How long does it take for the roof to close?

They’re using a hand-crank to save money so 17 days.

Make of this what you will. One night on the drink my friends and I had the idea of a prank for morning radio. One of the guys was a Commercial real estate agent. We planned to have a for sale sign made up and have it placed in front of AFL park Waverly. Only the guy did not make up the sign, instead being a sharp agent he pitched the idea to Jeff kennett who was figuring out planning for the docklands. [censored] of with the guy for not doing the prank and maybe having a small hand in us playing at Marvel today.

at this point it wouldn’t even shock me if goody put jackson in the backline after training as a forward/ruck. I’d expect nothing less from Melbourne

Feels like you went with the trusty alphabet soup Skuit...

Wait where has this stuff about Jackson playing in defense come from? We are crying out for quality tall forwards and avenues to goal. Why would you take a talented young tall who has trained ruck and forward and then stick him in the backline?! What a stupid decision that would be. Very Melbourne!

Neogilistic portmanteau fail. I may be a bit excitable at the moment.

  • 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.

    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.
