Donโ€™t remind me, the first game of the year I saw in person.

    We should win this one in a canter. Crows have nothing to play for and we have top spot on the line.

    Last 4 years (including this year), Adelaide producedย in MCG:

    2018ย  ย  Rd 13ย  ย Hawthornย  vsย  Adelaideย  ย MCGย  ย  ย  88:32ย  ย lost by 56

    2020ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย None

    2021ย  ย  Rd22ย  ย Melbourne vs Adelaideย  ย MCGย  ย  ย  ? : ?ย  ย  ย lost by 20+ย 

    I reckon this time, the max points Demons would allow Crowsย to kick are 60, Demons themselves will kick over 80.

    I felt both B Brown and Viney are slowly but getting better and better.

    I like Koz, I like May and his recent interview.

    I like Melksham's mark and goal kickingย last Monday. In Rd 5 Hawthorn's game (in MCG), he kicked 3.0, no behinds. Let's prepare some instant milkshake ready for this afternoon...

    Go Melksham, go Koz, go Dees!ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย

    The last time we beat Adelaide at the G, (the late) Colin Sylvia, Jurrah and Moloney were running amok.

    Letโ€™s hope Collingwood are the only side we couldnโ€™t beat in 2021.

    Tis strange. All the TV guides have 7 broadcasting essendon/goldcoast at 3pm.Guess we will have to wait and see.

    Not sure nationally, but our game today will onlyย be on Fox Footy from a Victorian perspective.

    Perhaps In SA it will be on channel 7 but doubtful anywhere else.

    I know Iโ€™m not always positive about things but jeez this a negative spin.

    Percentage doesnโ€™t mean anything now but I would ours to go above the Bulldogs to further reinforce that we have been the best team all year.

    Iโ€™m actually pointing out how outstanding our season has been to beat all but one side, assuming we salute today. Thatโ€™s next level brilliant.

    Itโ€™s a positive comment.

    It's opening up for us somewhat. Teams around us are getting key injuries while we still have a charmed run.

    We need to make the most of it and cement a top 2 spot. Can't rely on the dogs winning next week, just win today and in Geelong or we run the risk of playing port in Adelaide

    I expect us to be switched on and professional. Players are playing for finals spots so no hollywood BS. Heat, intensity, system, method. The Crows fired their last bullets in the showdown last weekend so won't put up much resistance unless we give them a sniff.

    50 point Dees win. BB to kick 5

    Agree on BBB.ย Vineyย wonโ€™t be playingโ€ฆ.Still suspended.ย 

    It's a still, partly cloudy morning here on the west side of town. It mightย only be 8am but there's a hint of warmth in the airย and the cherry blossoms are bloomingย on the tree out front of HQ so September must be within touching distance. In these lockdown times it'll be a stripped back game day affair with a walk round to our local caff Sadie Black forย some take away lunch that'll beย washed down by some bottles of Sunset from the Two Birds brewery down in Spotswood. Enjoy the game everyone, wherever and how ever you'll be watching it.ย

    Reckon it'sย a Ben Brown kind of day. Tipping 4 or 5 goals today and really stamp himself, andย remind the competition that he's still got it.

    Agreed on this CB.ย  Win today and were' playing for top next week and will be above the Dogs.

    Also, looking at the losses this year, I believed at the game that GWS are worthy finalists after their win against us, the Hawks showed they a a good team yesterday and the draw could be called noteworthy (?), and the Pies had the Buckley emotion.

    Adelaide were the only outlier in the Dees performance this year.

    Lets put that to bed today and we have beaten just about all comers so far this year. Self-doubt inside the club would be non-existent going into finals.

    I would welcome the chance to play a team that hasn't beatenย a top side all year in Port (rather than Geelong) for first week of finals.ย

    With Covid numbers in Victoria going backwards, a win today is the only thing that can put a smile on the face of Melbourne supporters. Letโ€™s do this!

    • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
