"the fittest I've ever been" ....... wow!  Competition for spots in the best defense in the AFL will be intense, and that bodes damn well for our quest to go back to back!

    Speaks well and I think his clear hunger to be a bigger part of what the team achieved last year will inspire and drive the team to greater heights. Is there greater though? Maybe just to "do it again" by the Beach Boys

    I really like this bloke. So personable and easy to relate to. We are really spoilt for choice. We can manage an injury in just about every line atm but let’s hope for another healthy season. 

    May is really the only player that has soft tissue vulnerabilities in backline but you could argue that his hammy in the finals was more a result of the push than anything else.

    Top shelf depth for this year. Probably misses round 1 if we’re at full strength.

    We’re in a great position to have May, Lever, Petty and Tomlinson fighting for 3 tall defender spots.

    Tomlinson could literally play anywhere if we are seeing players miss with Covid.

    Pretty handy player to have in these times.

    Looks like he is in beast mode, seems like a truly humble man as well.

    He is certainly ready to go

    These boys are Hungry, as long as our fitness standards stay at peak levels. That is what got us Number 13.

    I thought the comment around Milky was a great example of feeding off and helping drive each other. The incumbents will know what is in waiting and I think today's performance by Khawaja just shows the value of having a "next man up" opportunity.

    Very happy for Adam to be back .

    But who comes out for him. He was replaced by Petty who has been great so it's hard to see him sidelined.  Rivers isn't going anywhere and is not really like for like.

    I also wonder how Hunt is going to get back in.

    Nice issues to have but hard for such loyal players.

    …..and Smith and Turner…..etc.

    trying to get into a Premiership side isn’t easy, probably injury the only way. Petty and Bowie have shown what is required if the opportunity presents itself.

    Thanks Goto. I totally forgot about Smith who I think is a very underated player.  

    For a club that used to have a backline that really struggled we have not only the best in the comp but one with enough to field another very strong one in the twos.

    With Bbb finding a return to his old form and also becoming good at contested marking and Fritta emerging as a key player. our forward line has caught up. So can't wait for this season to get going. As dominating as our cricketers have been, it's just not doing it for me anymore. I've tasted a flag and I need more. I know it's the Ashes and a patriotic duty....I'm sorry but my heart beats true.....

    • 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.

      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.
