I reckon not being able to leave your house every second week for a week would be hell 🤷. Anyway, just leaving the stadium and off to the old whiskey bar. 

I lived in Perth for a while. It reminded me a lot of Melbourne in lockdown.🤣

 

We should be given an extra 4 points for beating the umpires. In a bus full of dees supporters going home singing GOF.

For those who are a bit jaded by the last 15 minute output.

imagine you’re 6 goals up - 15 to go, you’ve cooled down - you’ve essentially sewn up top 4. And Burgess says, don’t go out and injure yourself, play it cool, play it safe…you’ve got another 5 matches to go for the season.

do you a) play it safe or b) ensure a greater likelihood of injury after cooling down and go really really hard?

 

Spot on. The time was just too long for the keepings off mode hence why they came back.

If Fritta, Trac x 2, LJ kicked those goals

if the umpire didn’t call Spargs to play on

If the umpire didn’t pay that free against May

If the umpire split the frees 50/50 in the last

The game would have been wrapped up much more quickly.

Absolutely. First option, quick hands, great vision and speed in the first 10 metres.. 

 

Yep in his 2nd game...

I'd happily take that. The last 15 minutes were no doubt hard to watch but I'm sure that if it wasn't for the infuriating lightning break we would've kept the game in control and won by 6-8 goals. That break completely messed with our focus.

ANB and Melksham had their best games of the season. Brown is coming along nicely. Petracca and Oliver, as always, worked really well together in the midfield.

The last 15 minutes aside, that was a very impressive win. We were all over them until three quarter time.

also not forgetting that without the break game would have played out in pelting rain

Going to bed, that was not enjoyable. The win is however. More to come tomorrow.

PS: Weeknight footy can stick it. 

 

[censored] fantastic win with everything against us - location, Covid, fired up opposition, umps, lightning -thats  the win that galvanises the team for the flag. Bring it on -try to stop us!

Will count for squat if we don’t win the last game of the year

Why?

We're locked into the top 4 no matter what.

Presumably we require momentum, or Geelong are the litmus test, or...

To be fair I don’t know how the umpire could call play on before even blowing the whistle on that Spargo mark. He kicks that goal and it’s done. 

I am just glad we didn’t cop massive injuries in that last 15 minutes. Take the 4 points and bid farewell to WA, their booing halfwit fans, their [censored] premier, and their crap teams. 

I won’t lie, I missed the Spargo one, what happened?

Bowey a future 200 gamer. 

How good was that spin out of traffic at pace in the last qtr and found a teammate

Bloody great win

Beat the lightening, the umps and Meth Coke all in one night

Withstood relentless pressure in the last quarter

I'm a VERY proud and happy Demon supporter tonight.

I think that was Spargo's fault. He marked the ball and then immediately plays on. I think some are arguing the umpire called play on, which would have been wrong (the kick was more than 15), but I reckon he thought it was touched or something. He handpassed to Sparrow who missed the snap.

No it was not       2 minutes away from the worst defeat in living memory   bloody angry what they put us through the last 15 minutes .....west coast [censored] heads are not that good to be allowed to come back like that    I usually do not say anything about umpires but they were shocking   that one against May for contesting from the side   Royal commission needed as to why they are so bad at interstate venues against Vic sides    votes tonight  Umpires 3 brownlow votes.

Ahhh those ungrateful players, not thinking about the supporters back home, stop focusing on the game/your body/risk for finals, and think about the supporters

Clear mark about 40m out directly in front (so probably wouldn’t have made the distance). Umpire doesn’t even blow the whistle to indicate a mark, Spargo looks over his shoulder, umpire calls Play On. 
The umpiring at that stadium is such a disgrace I don’t know why clubs don’t get together and put a complaint in.

Loving the development of Petty this season. Lever and May are great mentors for him. Thomo might find it hard to reclaim his place next year!

Thommo can play other positions I reckon. Wing, forward. Too good to not be in the 22. Bloody good position to be in though 😁

Right.

Your first post after the game, other than to bag the umpires, is to say this win means nothing if we don't win the premiership.

That's a ripper attitude.

And by ripper I mean ridiculous.

 

Dudes. I was at Optus tonight. Every single moment was amazing. We totally outplayed them bar some moments in the 2nd quarter. That third quarter and the start of the last was total domination. By the point we came off the game was over regardless. I am on top of the world right now. Go you mighty Dees. We came here to do a job and we did it. Dees!!!!

Round 12 the last time we’ve scored more goals than behinds, it’s disgraceful from the club and I agree it will cost us something big if we don’t actually sort it out. 

We. Are. Top. Of. The. Ladder.

Disgraceful? It was a slopfest out there tonight. And we won. Would've won by 6+ goals without the delay.

  • 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.
