    In my 100% honest opinion I'd say we are a 10th place side. A perfectly average team. Nothing more, nothing less. 

    I’d argue less.

    Surely a Bedford couldn't do worse.

    But it really is like switching witches hats at the moment.  We don't really have anyone better than ANB in the magoos right now.

    but could he play whatever ahem role Brayshaw is currently not playing very well?

    Tracc has had two times he should have kicked for goal from 55, went for the pass and stuffed both up. 
    He’s had 7 touches and I know he’s not on his own, but Dusty he ain’t. 

    He's been quiet these last couple of games.


    One of my daughters, a keen Harry Potter fan, reckons the umps are under the Imperius Curse. A few Snape-like Crows fans with wands in the crowd, shouting ‘imperio’! As good a theory as any.

    Adelaide are absolute puss. They are easily the poorest team in the competition right now and we’re just fluffing around  with it. If we don’t come out with some killer instinct in the second half and put this game to bed, this game and season is dead.

    Yep, we have the players to just run right through these soft clowns but they just aren't really interested.

    I expect no likes ...because most of you guys would be happy for the big H to fail.

    Not me

    I'm not happy to see any Melbourne player fail.

    However, the bloke looks very, very timid tonight.  He needs to lift the urgency and contribute more.

    Brayshaw is like the kid who's old man drags to play footy and he's picking the daisy's from the grass.

    Doesn't give a phark.

    Yeah the umpiring sucks.

    But let's talk about us.

    We suck more.

    We're barely up in CPs and down in clearances to the 0-9 basket case whose biggest weakness is their midfield.

    Gawn isn't dominating hit outs, so maybe that's impacted our ability to get on top in the middle. Who knows.

    I can't stand vandenBerg's OTT faux aggression. His free reversal is inexcusable.

    ANB and Bennell are giving us nothing, and without Hannan and Pickett we have no forward 50 pressure.

    And WHY is Brayshaw playing? 4 touches, spending time on the bench. I just don't get it. What is the point?

    I think most on here could play the role Gus is playing right now.  I'd be a chance of getting four touches to half time.

    We would struggle to get a third round pick for Brayshaw at the moment.

    3rd in the Brownlow two years ago. How in the...

    Goody pre match presser where improving and he has a plan for a premiership. There are more than half this side that are not AFL standard. It is so sad after seven years of a rebuild where back where we started. 

    How's this for a number:

    11 of our 'players" have had less than 5 disposals.

    Bennell 1.

    Are they actually doing any training while in these hubs? Or is it all golf and surfing? Skills are deplorable.

    We're seeing two bottom 3 or 4 teams tonight. It is depressing how terrible we've become.

    Crowns have 9 changes and multiple first gamers. Mind you we have an almost pristine injury list. This is the worst Crows side in their history and comfortably the weakest list in the league atm.

    And yet we are staring down the barrel of a loss.

    Unforgivable.

    • 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

      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.
