Go home, Kayo, you’re drunk. They’re showing replays of replays of passages of play, like it’s on loop. 

Clarrie, Salem, ANB & BBB all looking sensational. A few blokes look a bit dusty but thats what these games are all about. No Jake Lever or Bailey Fritsch so our structures are slightly out. Chandler showing a bit. Looking forward to seeing what The Weed can do in the 2nd half.

    These boys are looking really sharp considering how shortened our preseason has been. We look like we are just picking up where we left off in November.

    Everyone looks super fit and in awesome condition. It’s a full-on muscle-fest out there. 


    Is there a VFL game for the other players on the list after this?

    Nice training drill for the boys out there….North are several classes below

    Don't have Kayo so am enjoying myself following this on the North bigfooty game day thread. It's very satisfying having our team talked about like this.

    A couple of times we’ve been caught out going forward with turnovers because have they been pushing back hard defensively and we are getting outnumbered .

    Melbourne's defence is hard to beat.

    they've split us open now

    Good reality check. Stops the uncalibrated preseason chugging off.

    Not a bad quarter of football but we saw about 5 minutes of play from the Dees that shows the difference between the Premiers and Wooden Spooners. They are a class above and we saw it late in that quarter.

    They move the ball quickly we were not able too

    Melbourne too strong and too good for us to play silly.

    Melbourne read the ball ahead of what we are doing as much as its about poor execution.

    We stagnate we should be playing on quickly but Melbourne don’t allow it

    Melb numbers behind the ball and numbers in front of the ball....

    We are winning out fair share of contests but the Melbourne backline is picking off everything.

    Melbourne with ascendency across the ground. Running with numbers, more numbers around the contest, cleaner with the footy.

    Melbourne are very good at smothering kicks in close

    How long till Round 1, 2023?

    They are just out working us on the spread offensively and working back a lot harder defensively. There are a lot of lessons today let’s hope we learn from them .

    We're getting crushed by melbs stronger mids.

    There are a lot of skill errors, but most of those would be because of the pressure being applied by the defending premiers.

    We just hemorrhaged 8 goals in a row and as soon as the pressure came we played like under 10s

    Their last two games were an absolute dismantling of Geelong, and then kicking 46 goals in a row to smash the Dogs and win a flag.

    Melbourne are really good

    At the ground, effort is ok skills & structure the glaring difference. 
    Seems an odd set up with the personnel we have on the field, allowing them huge outnumber behind the ball playing into their hands. likewise around the contest their positioning is much effective, better spacing allowing clearer outlets despite what looks like an extra there for us.

    I wanna see my boy Jayden running around!


    Great first half

    Particularly impressed by Hibberd and Sparrow is showing he is best 22.

    Pickett just cannot get near it other than on a few link up plays.

    Would have liked to see some more scoring from forward stoppage.

    Looking forward to seeing the Weid and Hunt in the second half.

    Harmes looks as though he means business. Nice goal just now.

      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.
