He was a concern SWYL but perhaps not as big a concern as last week imo

 

Fair call. He still has a long way to go

The Wino was fairly quiet so his job may have been to negate his old mate

    Viney needs to be commended for his defensive job on Wines, he was basically a non factor. Viney offence stuff will come.

     

    he had 33 touches? lol

    Viney got destroyed 

    Wines just didn't have anyone else to give it to

    Pickett 4 tackles inside 50, Brown, Jordon and McDonald all 3.

    Love that.

    Seeing Brown with i50 tackles is fantastic.

    Gawn confirming they did a block of hard training around the bye. 

    But said it wasn't a factor in their form slump

    Imagine if we ever convert more than 50% of our shots on goal. What a time to be alive that would be!

    Was thinking the same thing Jaded, would be great if we could turn them into goals.

    Well we can work on that, so happy.

    Imagine if Goodwin played Lever down back for 4 minutes, then in the ruck, then tagging a defender then on the bench then in the ruck again for no reason at all. 

    The no reason is he knew Jackson would smash Marshall in the ruck and our defenders were killing them in the air. 

    The way we play without a lot of uncontested ball use and flooding numbers up and back makes the talls so important and Port’s talls just didn’t have to. So they had to mix and move Aliir.

    For us it’s a matter of whether we can get the same control in the air on the mcg where there’s more space to cover and it’s harder to get pressure.

    Good win on a hostile tract. Good win and how a tall key position player makes a difference. Thaught Brown played quite well. And hats off to Petty.

    Yes a very diplomatic answer from Gawny, not wanting to see any blame for the GWS loss, etc., fall on Burgess.

    Thought we were outstanding tonight. Structure was on point and Port never knew where to kick, there just wasn't any space. Then when the last resort was to bomb in we just cut it off all night. Our system is exceptional and the players executing it are so committed. 

    Trac and Oliver immense. Salem doesn't know the meaning of missing targets. May and Lever fantastic. Will finish this later want to see the highlights!

    My work mate is Port. As per tradition, I will get in to work before him and drape a flag over his desk.

    Yes, Ken really didn’t put Aliir into a position to succeed.

    It was great.

    Am I the only one to notice they took ages to play our song after the win and only played it once? Even the DJ is salty that they lost by the look of it

    I actually think the doppy aholes started playing the Port song then went I [censored] we didn’t win quick change it.  Idiots.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
