    I watched that game at the commercial club in albury.   With great trepidation. We started slow in the first 10 with Richmond all over us,  then completely dominated the rest of the match.  A good night.  Probably the night where we came of age

    As I recall, Richmond fresh after a demolition of the Saints was billed as the tigers  going to re affirm their premiership authority and humiliate some upstart 5-0 pretenders.

    This was the game many (me included) realised we were the real deal.

    They jumped us early, I think it was 2.3.15 to 0.0.0, and were all over us with their 2017-20 pressure.

    We absorbed it, limited the damage from their momentum, and then flipped it on its head. And they absolutely crumbled. All whilst Hibberd gave Dusty one of the best baths Dusty's ever had (there haven't been many). It was joyous to watch.

    Agree this was the watershed game for 2021. Topped off by coming home and finding Sportsbet had paid out on my pre-season bet of Melbourne to win the flag at $26. Even they knew then.

    Was that Jonesey 300th?

    I remember Kozzie getting involed in a 'kerfuffle' and Jonesy was in their with a grin from ear to ear.  Bolton was gobbing off to Viney, telling Jay to have a go but Bolton was also back peddalling at light speed.

    Kozzie ended up on the interchange;  Goody had his arm around him.

    Same here. Richmond were awesome early in that first quarter and against any other side would have put on 8 goals by quarter time. But we stood up, absorbed all of their heavy punches and then started throwing our own. Definitely our "coming of age" game for mine.

    • 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.
