Better but the dogs have the breeze in the 3rd so we need to keep the pressure up.

May has been magnificent for us. 

Fritta bounced back with a nice goal. 

Presuss finally doing what he had to do. He is taller and much more bigger than english. He needs to dominate those ruck contests and he started to hit it in the right spots.

    We look the more dangerous side when we go forward, just need the midfield to lift, started to get going in that quarter

    Once the clearances evened up that quarter, we comfortably had their measure. Dogs have an elite midfield so have to break even in this second half. In the arcs, Melbourne is clearly superior. 

    Agreed. We need to start winning clearances. Do that and I think we will win comfortably. 
    They are killing us when they get the easy clearance because they have so much speed they always have a man out.

    We know which end is the scoring end. Smart move is to make Q3 a bog and play for the win in Q4. If we try to go head on in Q3, they will get a lead and then turn it into a bog in Q4 and we will lose.

    I think after today’s game it’s time to rest Pickett and bring in Bennell to play small forward. Pickett doesn’t give us enough. 

    His 2nd half would want to be pretty good to stay in.  Depending how they go in this 2nd half it could be Bedford for Picket and Harley for Harmes (if the FD deem him fit enough).

     

    I it is always a worry with Pickett, Spargo and Hannan in the same side. They all are very low possession players

    Spargo has offered nothing except 1 good tackle

    Umps ❌ 

    Bulldogs mids on top - losing inside contest ❌

    Spargo and Pickett not effective❌

    May Preuss Langdon our best ✅

    Agreed. He isn’t soft. He just can’t kick.

    Yep.

    Won't argue that he could have laid a better tackle on English in the first term, but he's had 8 kicks to go with 6 marks and a goal.  Plays his role for the team perfectly.

    I reckon TMac is playing his guts out and going OK. He was the player chasing the Bulldogs player who was penalised for running too far.

    needs to stop hitting it out wide (mostly to doggy outliers so far).... just dump it in close and let our boys do what they do best and muscle it from the inside to the out.

    time to turn up the pressure on the doggies and win this game.

     

    Kossie and Spargo, all they need to do this quarter is apply relentless pressure, keep it in the forward line

    My heart breaks watching him. What a monumental [censored] up, one of many, by this club.

    Which both did do in that second term.  Their pressure might not come up as stats, but they have been better as a game has gone on.

    If they can hit the scoreboard in the second half it will be a massive bonus!

    Steven May is showing why we so despately needed him. we wouldn't be in this game without him. 

    it's the opposite of our usual games, we aren't winning the contest, or inside 50's but we look really efficient and winning the game. 

    backing us in, but we need to take our chances.

    • 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.

      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.
