 West was won.

We went up against a side which was playing for a spot in the 8.  We were belting them, until the weather intervened.  Once again, the umpiring was atrocious.  I'll take a win the West anytime.

Fritsch - Did Bugger All

VDB - Worse than Fritsch

Umps - Played for Eagles

Absolutely nailed it 

How does Vandenburg get chance after chance. Was slow and dumb and missed two definite shots that should have been kicked

I think this is your best work Joeboy, that said, a touch understated on Bowey & Petty who I thought were outstanding.

James Harmes! A bit more humble pie as a late night snack for several Demonlanders, who wanted him banished. You know who you are.

 Bit harsh imo , guy got hurt in the first ten minutes. 
Speedy recovery Hunty.


Hunt - Taylor calls Langdon

...and the camera is right on his face as he's getting his ankle checked by the physio on the boundary line.

To be fair he couldn't see his number.

Also says gawn will struggle with tbe distance from 45 metres. 

The bloke is just about the longest kick in tbe team!

Petty doesnt do much wrong. Very good player as is Bowser who will be the most inexperienced player to play in a Demon premiership in at least 60 years.

 

Enjoy the next 6 weeks fellas.

TV commentators are dckheads mate. Amateurs.  One of the clowns was going on about how Melk cracks in week in week out.  I mean do some research. Every part of that sentence is wrong.

 

Sidenote: Melksham always plays well after a spell and then fades after a month or so.

 

Double sidenote: VDB is pretty ordinary and Sparrow is solid, i like him.

I agree on Gawn but Rivers can kick it post high from 50m out and go 20m into the stands. I'd back him to be the longest kick at the club.

Umps hate Melbourne

Thid state of affairs has become so very obvious. What can we do about it? It may not be hatred from the umpires, but it is condoned, approved, never questioned by the AFL and its glorious myth of an equal playing field - highighted by an abnormal free kick differential between sides playing the one game of football, week in and week out.

In the Dees' case, any progressive movement of the ball is interrupted and directly interfered with in a very arbitrary manner where the consistent application of 'rules' and 'interpretations' is grossly prejudicial and arbitrary to their continuing disadvantage.

It is time for Pert to directly question the AFL itself with mounting evidence of such flagrant abuse. There is a template for the detriment of the MFC in the approaching finals - well rehearsed and grossly invalid - but no-one seems to care.

Fritta to rest / be managed due to all the head bashing he received from the Eagles. Replace with JSmith.

Gawn swings his foot and leg in an arc to the left when kicking for goal. He should lead his kicking action from the knee with a bent leg and smoothly extend the knee joint when making contact with the ball.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
