Some holes appearing in the Swans game. Really struggling to score, and too easy for opposition to rebound out of their forward 50. They need a couple of small defensive forwards to help keep the ball down their end.

I think Casboult has been outstanding for the Suns. His kicking might still not be great, but he keeps on presenting and is such a good mark.

    Problem is they get right on the edge about to explode and be raided again by Victorian clubs.

    That's fixable though, Brisbane were in the same boat not so long ago, winning games really helps with retention. 

    I would imagine the AFL will move heaven and earth to get Clarko to the Suns, if he can convince a couple of quality veterans to go there and retain their out of contract kids, i'd nearly back them to push for finals in 2023

    Nice touch for the players to acknowledge the eight supporters that travelled down from Surfers.

    That is a very good win by the suns. 

    Now we just have to win tomorrow and we will be 3 games clear ahead of sydney. 

    Collingwood fall out of the 8 

    Now just need the hawks to put more misery on the bummers and it will be a good day.

    I’m stuck on two lines of thought right now. 
     

    Tigers 2018 preliminary loss.

    Barring major injuries were playing in another GF.

    Swans  having a forward line revolving around Franklin is starting to look like a mill stone around their neck.

    Isaac Rankine taunting an opponent as he got a free kick at defensive 50, what a stupid [censored]. Try running both ways for a change you over hyped nobody!

    You cant count a Bloke walking his dog past the ground that stops to sniff a post as part of the crowd Rab!

    Pruess only played 22 games. Good to see him play solid footy. Looks like a 100 gamer already

    One thing that I really noticed in the Port win was their kicking to a leading forward inside 50. I think they had nearly 20 inside 50 marks. It's something that Melbourne has really lost. We kick long to à big pack and rely on Ben browns reach. Would love to see us delivering to a leading forward out in front. I don't think it's our forwards. All of our forwards are capable of a strong lead. I watch and they just hold back and wait for the long bomb. Probably why our forwards aren't kicking bags atm. Thoughts? 

    All our taller forwards can mark and kick but their leading patterns are all [censored] about at the moment. 
    Keeping something up our sleeves for finals?🙄

    Dew was a long time assistant at Sydney.  Probably proves that Longmire hasn't changed much over the years since Dew left.

    Giants just not working hard enough. Whitfield with 7 touches? Create run and overlap and they should win easily.

    I excluded him from my head count Picket. Incidentally his dog has a coterie membership at Hawthorn.

    Yeh i agree they looked better earlier in the season taking multiple avenues to goal.   Become a bit predictable when Buddy's in.

    That free kick to Hogan was ridiculous. No contact, or minimal at best.

    Why don't the commentators call it?

    MRP peer pressure

    Wow.... Ward literally looked like he got shot there and the ump still fell for it haha

    Aside from the form of Cameron i don't really see much change in either team vs last season's general output 🤷‍♂️

    32 and 290 games taking its toll. Still a gun but lost some explosiveness

    • 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.
