So we have a great win and this is all some have to focus on…

Incidentally, one of our cheer squad members picked the guernsey up and handed it back to the fan. She said he was a stupid teenager and he looked “sheepish” when she returned it to him.  Which suggests he knew what he’d done was idiotic. Thing is, he did the same thing after the match too. Seems he is more stupid than sheepish.  😑 

edit: after Melksy dropped it on the ground, when Tracc walked past it he kicked it further under the fence. Funny, no one’s mentioning that.

Maybe a $1000 fine coming up for supporter equipment abuse?

The guy is extremely lucky it wasn't Maysie that grabbed it.

Watching Oliver it is clear he is still hampered by his broken thumb. His normally instantaneous clean ball takes were still absent and his handball skills were suppressed. May need another couple of weeks to fully recover. Costing him at least ten possessions a game. 

Most importantly, can he still win the Brownlow?🤔

Have always thought Sparrow was fantastic

my favourite little moment last night was in maybe the third quarter he got into a bit of a scrap and was holding two blokes by the jumper at arms length, one in each hand.

He’s only a little fella and when you meet him and chat to him he seems like he’s about 12, but gee he’s a tough kid and really cracks in. 
 

As for BT grouping him as a player ‘pressing for his spot’, how laughable. 

How long ago did you meet him?

He is built like a brick outhouse and over 6 foot. I couldn't believe the size of him when I walked past him locally last year.

That was a magnificent choke last night 

In front of all their fans and corporates. 
 

Even with all the commentators barracking for them

David King will have a completely different agenda on Monday…

What would Leigh Montagna know about winning a Flag anyway??

He was involved in 2 failed Premiership Campaigns

Has anyone in the media heard of Petty? Cant recall his name being mentioned. Its always trac olie brayshaw viney.

We're not the same side without him.

We also look tougher and meaner with Hibberd back .

Of course I consume it but a friend of mine used to work for Croc Media and knows Hutchison well - they literally design their views around reaction. Hutchison admitted to my mate that he will say something (or advise/cajole someone else to say something) that he doesn’t believe just so it hits your cerebral cortex and gets you annoyed or fired up.

I am not above getting riled up over what Twitters algorithm sends me but I am trying to not get inflamed as that is it’s intention…

Maybe the umps are coached the same way 😁

Was watching the replay of the last quarter this morning and they all had a lot of praise for him as being our best lockdown defender and the first picked each week.

HARRY PETTY AND THE HEARTBREAKERS
It’s not just the two-headed Dees defensive ‘monster’ (Steven May and Jake Lever) that makes Melbourne an uneasy match-up down back.
As we saw when it mattered last year, you have to include Harrison Petty as the third wheel.
The Dees’ defence restricted the Dockers to only FIVE goals - with four of them kicked by small forwards.
Big forwards Matt Taberner and Rory Lobb were kept goalless.
The credit must collectively go to Melbourne’s back six, and more specifically Petty, Lever and May.
They helped to break the spirit of the Dockers’ forwards as well as the hearts of Freo fans.
When the triple-headed defensive ‘monsters’ all play together, they are very hard to stop.
They have played nine games as a trio this season, with the Demons winning seven of them.

OK .good   i am overseas so  i look at all the tv panels and quarter highlights on line but thats it. I can watch full games as well but usually turn off the volume. Unbearable waffle.

Agree WE GOT INTO FREO’S HEAD 

Teams have beaten us if they play with dare and run. It seems easy to say but it’s often harder to do.  The Pies will bring the run.  Daicos and Crisp and Pendlebury won’t be scared.
 

Another point to note still. But we need to do more than defend.  60 inside “50s” and 12 goals. We need to get better ourselves in attack. Yes we have a gun defence.  A lack of a key forward will be a worry. No Franklin. No Hawkins/Cameron.  Not a Mihocek. FFS not even a Daniher.  We need a fit BBB at least. 

Totally agree. Just watching JVR at 5.0 again today.

I reckon we've got to give him a go for a week or two.

Petracca needs to get his confidence back in front of goal too.

That's hilarious. Such a bold prediction.

He must have splinters the size of cricket bats sitting on the fence like that.

For context Andy, given you were oat the game you would have missed him tipping freo right before the game on fox.

This season he has gone from the Dees being guaranteed to go undefeated to missing the Top 4 to still a chance to missing the Top 4 again to keeping the faith. If we lose next week his head might explode.

That and the fact he was tackled at every contest before taking possession of the footy

Wouldn't surprise me if he predicted the Dees to be relegated to the VFL if we can't defeat the filth...

Rather than a big 40+ point win next week. Do we run with a couple of point win, to prove that not only can the filfth be beaten, but they are not the masters of the close games?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • 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.
