Brown definitely deserves another week. He also looks as quick as Usain Bolt compared to Tmac out there.

 

Wagner : Did his job

Melksham : important link

Salem : best game tonight


 

Pretty much bang on. I was not confident about Wagner but I thought he played a decent game in the end.

While it wasn't Gawn's best performance he certainly battled hard and did everything possible.


Petracca      4 great goals

May              His best performance

Oliver            Great last Quarter

Langdon       Is all class

Lever            Back to best

Wagner        give him credit

Rivers           is our future

Gawn           Lead us well

Oscar           Played his role

Viney            gives his all

Salem           consistent as always

Brown          presented all day

spargo          missing in action

                      Rest team effort

Oliver - Slow first half

Petracca - 2 or 3 (votes)

Salem - important final kick

Rivers - Looks a find.

Hibberd - has found form

Wagner - just a game

Brown - easily surpassed McDonald 

Brayshaw - disappointing from start

Tomlinson - one needed mark

Viney - resorted to tagging

Melksham - lost lateral movement

Jones -  very costly mistake

Lever - much improved performance 

Weideman - 2 goal quota

A bit harsh on Wagner. I thought he worked his way into the game well and played his part in an increasingly accomplished back half.

Watch the game again. This was Tomlinson’s best game for us so far. He played very well.

Absolutely agree esp in last quarter!!

Wagner - better than usual

Tomlinson - some good things

We can’t expect to be a real threat until we can get consistent effort across the park. A lot of passengers each week and it costs us too often, this week we got off lucky

Oliver - critical last quarter

May - another AA performane

Viney - tagging role worked

vandenBerg - having no impact

Jones - unfortunately played terribly

I don't understand this point about passengers.

You don't get that defensive structure without everyone on board.

We had players that made mistakes with ball in hand and some of those might miss a game next week, but we shut down a very good running team with a stunning 18-man defence.

One example I would give is Brayshaw. Had a quiet night but he ran constantly from east to west to combat the Saints spread and switch. That's not a passenger in my view.

On a side note, another point I would make is that defensive efforts are not always reflected in tackles or any other stat. Sometimes corralling and forcing a kick to an advantageous position is better than a tackle.

Don't get me wrong, this performance was far from perfect and we have plenty of players that need to get better around the ball and with ball in hand, but you don't get a performance like that from May, for example, without everyone pulling their weight, defensively.

Agree, looked to be really busting a gut all night. There was one where he didn't quite get to the ball carrier but put on just enough pressure to impact the kick inside 50 which we marked.

Won't get a stat but that is exactly what we need from every player. And didn't get from every player last week

  • 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.
