Watching this at a sports bar in Hoi An Vietnam. Tiger on tap. Awesome 👌 

I'll be flying over your head  (Nha Trang back to Hanoi; le tour de in-laws) about 30mins after the game finishes. Sometimes even a flight delay is favourable, although listening through a mobile in a packed airport waiting area isn't ideal!

It was a push, totally stupid and unnecessary by Langdon.

I thought it was a push live but didn't think it would get called. It was hands on the back but he barely gave him any momentum.

We can thank Tom Hawkins for that one not being a goal

Are TMac and Weed just decoy forwards these days?

Clearances a huge concern.

If Harmes is running with Coniglio he is getting thrashed.

 

5 disposals and two marks combined. Pretty poor.

Langdon tiny push in the goal square.
BS free.

It deserved to be paid just out of langdons stupidity alone. Like what on earth was he thinking. That coupled with Mcdonald holding on to their ruckman's arm in the ruck contest and Harmes kicking into the man on the mark are some of the dumbest plays I've see this year. 

Another game that will be neck and neck until deep into the 4th because we couldn't ice the game sooner.

Giants always pick off Gawns taps.he needs to hit onto the outside. 

If you are tallkimg punching it any angle towards goal over the top of the inner ring of players.....Yup!!

Also Clarry and Tracc need to handball to outside preferrably Lingers side so he can run on to it.  All these 2 to 4 foot hand balls, even Viney is guilty,  bringing the heat on us around the ball and too easy for the Giants to get a hand in and steal or spoil.

Go further / wider and changle lanes pls

But it made 0 difference to the goal going through so why does it need to be paid? Makes no sense. 

Because you can't push people in the back anywhere on the field.  Free kick

GWS have brought the heat. not sure if we have faced much heat so far this year, dogs?

They have but I think we’ve handled it well, only difference being that’s the Giants best and we’re running at about 75-80%. That Kosi non handball to Fritsch was effectively a two goal turn around.

Lever ismoving fine in the warm ups thankfully. Let’s do him a favour and not let the ball ping down there quite so frequently, hey Clarry?

    NEW CHAPTER by Meggs

    There was no setting sun to ruin the spectacle this week, just the rising moon over the brand-new empty GMHBA Stadium in Moorabool Street. It was a perfect evening for footy on a pristine surface with an enthusiastic crowd building.    Children dressed in Demon colours formed a Guard of Honour as the reigning premiers ran through the raised Demon banner declaring: MELBOURNE & GEELONG, A NEW CHAPTER IN THE OLDEST RIVALRY.     The strong travelling group of Demons

    BATTLE OF MORDOR by Meggs

    Shadows form over Middle-Earth as the two oldest football clubs in the land Melbourne and Geelong take battle for the very first time for 4-points, down at Kardinia Park (aka Mordor). If you dare, come venture down the highway and support our talented team. Melbourne’s Season Eight form line is 4 zip and we’ve been playing some scintillating footy.  The fanbase is growing.   It needs to be said that our opponents so far have hardly been top shelf: Collingwood sits 12th on the

    SISTER ACT by Meggs

    In the twilight at Frankston Oval, for the first ever match between Melbourne and Hawthorn, the Demons were clinical winning by 59 points and remain undefeated in Season Eight.   The Melbourne team ran out to a wonderful #DeeArmy banner paying tribute to Ron Barassi, ‘a football legend, the greatest Demon’.     So true!   Meggs was super excited to see Irish recruit Aimee Mackin playing her first game.  Aimee quickly showed us that she belongs out there with composure, ga

    ON SONG by Meggs

    Meggs asks is it time to heave ho the melodies and words of yesteryear and update Club theme songs with some Australian composers and singers?     What prompted this reflection was the discovery that this week’s combatants’ themes were written by the same early 20th century American composer, George M. Cohan.     Cohan’s melodies The Yankee Doodle Boy and You’re a Grand Old Flag have been used by Hawthorn since 1956 and Melbourne since 1912.   Even earlier, the clu

    RUN UNBEATEN by Meggs

    The Demons withstood a spirited challenge from the Western Bulldogs in the 10th anniversary of the Hampson-Hardeman Cup to run away with it in the last quarter and take their unbeaten run to 12 wins on the trot, an AFLW record.   The Doggies were tenacious and their losing score of 6.5.41 was the highest score against Melbourne since their last loss against Brisbane in Round 4 on 18 September 2022.   With the sad passing of AFL football legend Ronald Dale Barassi, champion player

    LEARNINGS OR BURNINGS by GOTO

    Well, the 2023 season is over for the Demons after a two point loss to the Blues in the First Semi Final. All season WE have been hearing about the “learnings” that the team needed to make after each loss, but how much have we actually learnt when they:   1. Lost four successive finals at our own home ground;   2. Fell in five of their last six losses despite having more shots at goal and in the sixth, they had an equal number of shots;   3. Lost seven games by under two
