Thank god that’s over. Terrible quality game. Happy to bank four points and move on.

Well done to Weid on his return. Took his opportunity and was the best forward on the ground.

    Got there - a slightly un-Melbourne scoreline (oppo kicked 70 points rather than 50-60) but we got the Melbourne margin (20-30).

    Told you all that Weideman was a good selection pre game.

    Nah jk I put my hand up. That was like Weideman of the 2018 finals series. More of that thanks.

    Tom McDonald on the other hand is depth now. Casey. Whatever it takes.

    One game I'd rather forget and move on with the win.

    Another very professional win. We were challenged throughout most of the game but we've developed an outstanding ability to grind out wins when we're not at our absolute best. 

    Oliver played one of his usual brilliant games. Brayshaw just keeps getting better every week. He and Langdon have become a killer wing duo. Weideman's earned himself another game. Good on him.

    Gus is Mr Fixit, very happy for Weid. 
    Oliver is sublime.

    Keep banking points.

    Those posters who called an end to Weid’s career in the Casey thread last week, the floor is yours.

    Incredibly frustrating.

    Takeaways: 4 points and Weid looked great and took his opportunity, will be great to have him as another forward option this year. Looked confident, and happy! Gus was good out back. Clarry immense.

    Things aren't clicking yet, but we're 3-0, beaten two top 8 teams and plenty of time to work things out.

    On to Port!

    Weid deserves to stay in next week (from a SW doubter).

    TMAC needs a lesson or 2 in humility. Maybe May could teach him, as he was well humbled tonight.

    Clarry BOG. Brayshaw very good as well

    Well done Weid with 4 goals. Keeps his place. TMac back to Casey to try and find some form

    Bank the 4 points and move on

    Looking at Tommy walking off the ground I reckon he knows what's on the cards - possibly no Ben Brown next week, so he might have one more chance in the side but if Brown is in I reckon it's for McDonald.

    Considering the experience that is out, i will take a 5 goal win. 
    No injuries and 4 points at Round 3

    onward…

    Can’t win a premiership in April, but you can certainly lose one.

    Still stuck in 2nd trying to get to 3rd.

    You clamp down on Petracca and all that does is let Oliver run rampant. We are a hard team to stop.

    I know some posters will flame us for the scrappiness of that effort but "Bang Bang Bang" footy isn't needed at this time of year. Bank the points, reset, recalibrate and move onto next week.

    Very happy to see Weideman do well. He keeps his spot ahead of TMac for sure, IMO.

    Bank the 4 and a great deal of regrouping required before Port in 6 days.

    Last week likely took it’s toll but there’s adjustments to be made and some players that need a bit of a rocket.

    Lever et al. can’t come back soon enough and once Brown returns, TMac is on borrowed time given Weid’s performance. I simply believe he adds nothing for us if he can’t take a mark anymore.

    Pickett can’t live off occasional displays of brilliance for much longer either.

    • 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.
