Bowser looks great and Dogga with 4 goals is turning it on.

 

What a difference kicking straight for goal makes!

    Dom Viney.

    That's harsh on Tyson. Don't think that even he got caught that often.

    I do like Viney but he's just trying to do the impossible too often.

    Good job everyone! except Viney you can rot in the 2's forever and Harmes you can do the same if you cant kick easy goals. 


    I’d like to see Koz get around it more. He just needs to get that spring back in his step. When he’s feeling dangerous opposition clubs get so nervous, and it’s great to watch.

    You’re joking right?

    He always got caught holding the ball, always.

    FMD Garry Lyon is a miserable campaigner. Was a great player for us but not convinced at all he's still invested in the club. 

     


    The key to is and always will be tackling pressure.

    Can’t fault much, but Harmes and Viney kill me. 

    Neither has learnt to take the first option and Harmes can’t hit a single target. 

    Really want to see them lift their game, as they should be copping a bake from Goodwin. 

    Loving the forward pressure. Brown’s looked really good and that helps TMac, Fritsch and Jackson get free and hit the scoreboard. Oliver incredible and Lever, Petty and May solid.

    A week is a long time in footy huh. The confidence we’ll be getting from this is very important

    For me I think this is Viney trying to find form. He has been injured and not in the team also trying to find match fitness. What a good opportunity to try and find some of that touch. He is getting the ball and once that confidence comes back he will be the bull he was again!

    Feel quite bad for Viney. He seems so out of place in this team. Doesn't seem to be "one of the boys" and tries to do too much.

    Also getting FAR better looks at goal, looking more shallow and straight as opposed to deep in the pocket.

    Hes an absolute mess of a player.

    Needs to FRO to Casey and learn to play football. This guy will kills us come finals.

    The issue I have is Goodwin is unfortunately too soft to drop him.

    Absolutely spot on comments as usual Dazzle

    I’m not satisfied, half to go and there were bad habits creeping in at the end of the quarter. We have a big opportunity to get some good form today and get some huge confidence. That will all be undone with a mediocre/poor second half.

    Yep spot on. BB50 leading straight rather than 45 degree angles into the pockets....who'd have thought!?

    I'm not denying that but my point was that I didn't see him get caught at the same rate that Viney is today.

    Anyway, Tyson's been out of the team for three years, so let's get back on topic.

    Jones would actually be better than Viney at this point. Smarter with the ball and seems to be more adaptable.

    Magnificent second quarter. That being said, confidence can be a double edged sword.

    Dare and dash are required to open teams up. We have shown plenty of that. It’s manic, relentless and inventive.

    It can also lead teams to unwise and presumptuous disposal. The Fritsch and BBB forward entries are case in point. BBB was right to be dirty on the former for torching him, and then proceeded to lose all moral high ground with that unrealistic shot.

    Dogga is having a day out. The opposition isn’t overly organized, but you can only play against the opponent presented to you. He’s also fixed his kicking from beyond 35 out, which is a credit to him.

    Bowey is a pleasant surprise. I wasn’t big on blooding more newbies leading into September, but he’s shown poise beyond his years.

    Clarry may need to be the medical subbed off alas. He’ll be suffering from leather poisoning. ?

    From now on all Melbourne players have to spend 8 hrs on a plane before each game..

    I can kind of see his point about is it good to be playing in a game like this. I mean today looks cruisy but next week we will come up against the Eagles & it will be a completely different game

    Should see if Geelong are still keen on Viney. Worth asking the question

    • 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.
