    I really want to see Langdon stop and prop to assess his options today. Brad Hill is someone who does this well and when you have that acceleration you don't need to just run off the moment you get the pill.

    Cue the trade-in May vs. pick King comparisons 

    There is no comparison. King will be a star for the next 10 years. May was what we needed at the time. 
     

    Tmac to toe a behind for a 4th qtr last play victory that catapults our season!

    Yep his ball use has been trash and a major disappointment. Because other than his ball use, I’ve loved his run and spread and his speed on the wing. But he lets himself down with execution and decision making time and time again. 

    Melksham needs a big game today if he wants to retain his spot. When he plays well we play well forward of the Centre so fingers crossed he can pull a finger out today.

    I'll preface this by saying yes, I know, all that stuff since 1964 and over the past 18 months. But even before the media pile-on I detected something different in the players as they walked from the field after our last match, heads hanging lower than usual, and then also in the post-match presser with Goody. They are frustrated with themselves. Relocating operations interstate is undoubtedly difficult, but I think this week is a character test. Line in the sand stuff. If they don't come out firing then I'm not sure what hope we have.  

    Carn the Demons!!

    Big games expected from Viney, Oliver and Melksham

    As long as we continue to look to draw a ‘line in the sand’ we’ll continue on with the mediocrity mentality. 
    We need to be at peak mentality at all times.

    get ready for stress and excitement for 3 hours

    I've got a cherry coke to keep me happy if we lose  

    Was Lockhart practicing his [censored] golf swing during the warmup? Is this under 10s?

    I feel that it's reasonable to resort to cliches while trying to amp myself up for a game I've been pretending all week not to care about.

    Can we assess, hold up when needed,  look around and pick the right options.  Then hit them up particularly up forward?

     

    Do we play that ridiculous front half zone tonight as per the Cats and last year against the Tigers?  Hopefully that's well behind us and we bring the pressure intensity on our oppenent through the corridor.

    Can the Weid take a few grabs, get involved and hit the scoreboard?

    How does Harley go?

    Do Salem and Melk finally show "SOMETHING"!??

    Good luck fellas and lets hope we pull a finger or two out.

     

    Visible change in game style so far. Let's see if it continues.

    • 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.
