    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

    • 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.
