    I’m not keen on the team selections. But shall reserve my judgements until post game. 
     

    Confidence is not high here.

    Will certainly be watching how we deliver the ball into our forward 50. We have gone with a smallish forward setup so we better not be bombing long to the square! 

    Fingers crossed we deliver the ball properly EH but our forwards need to play as forwards are meant to play ... leading to space,  multiple leads (at speed), defensive pressure,  play in front,  kick straight etc etc

    But our clearance work needs to be clean & efficient.  Scrubbing the ball forward or banging it forward won't work

    It all starts from the dominant ruckman ... and our schemes & set plays from the tap.

    What's the reasoning there?

    Geelong's got Ford in that same sport.

    Zurich still on the front for us.

    A game we had to win, were favourites and didn't come to play. Whereas we're not favourites today don't really rate Geelong and if we bring the right attitude we should be right in it. Hopefully winning.

    Brayshaw with no helmet? Not sure about that? ?

    Two kicks to the hot spot (both correct kicks to make) but no tall forwards to contest.

    Nice.

    Contrast this to Geelong’s first goal.

     

    Another [censored] waste of inside 50s. Geelong one inside 50 and goal. 
    Will Goodwin ever fix this?!


    Melbourne football right there. Repeat rubbish forward entries, goes the other way defence a mess, easy goal to the opposition.

     

    Count the easy goals for them. That’s 1. 

    Lever misread that and didn't go up. 

    On the one hand in happy that there weren't 3 players trying to spoil. 

    On the other I'm not happy that it was Lockhart vs a ruck


    Horrendous defence. They had three floating back to the goalsquare.

    Suggests our forward press was too high and once they got through, it was too easy.

    Dangerous signs.

    Cats implementing a transition and MCG masterclass just then. We couldn't get near it

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
