    Against one of the biggest clubs, who were playing for a spot in finals for the first time in a decade, who threw everything at us. What a brilliant result and end.

    How did we win that?

    just maybe it will give us some confidence that will rub off into better performances. Team changes do need to take place.

    We won, but we're not winning the premiership

    I hate the attitude of fans who have somehow forgotten decades of mediocrity and don't enjoy wins. FFS. 

    Huge lifter. That sort of win will give the boys some extra bounce. 

    Jayden Hunts last couple of minutes were unreal

    Petty is AA, he is just brilliant. Brayshaw huge all night. Please I cannot watch us kick it to Brown anymore, thank you, like you, but not the KPF we need.  Thanks Melks love your work. Cannot understand how we got picked apart in the contest, without our defence we would have been blown up. Salem looking better each week.

    There needs to be a minimum for four changes for next week.

    A totally complacent team playing a style that has been worked out with a forward line that couldn’t kick straight if their lives depended on it.

     

    I fully stand by these comments.

    That last three minutes was wallpaper over cracks.

    Barring a miracle. The Bulldogs should knock the Blues out of the finals now. If we can win next week then we should secure a top 4 spot.

    Always liked what Melksham brings, hope this helps to bring some others to Team Melk, because he was the difference. 

    He doesn't rack up the most possessions or tackles, but he generally actually thinks about his possessions and is really crafty.

    It’s fair to say we take that and move on real quick. We have a lot of work to do.

    How are we not just making up the numbers?

    We've just played a game against a possible finals contender that gave their absolute all and we won. Last week we played another incredible game against another genuine finals contender and only just got done when we really should've won if it wasn't for some poor kicking.

    In no way are we making up the numbers.

    Confession time. 3 minutes to go I got up and said "we're done, we can't do it from here. We've lost all our close ones this year". Well, bugger me.

    That was as close to a final as you will get. Not a great spectacle, but as tough as hell. Both sides will be very sore over the next 2 days. 

    Delighted, shocked, annoyed, Exhiirated. 

    I did that with 14 minutes to go and turned it back on with 30 seconds to go.

    Reckon Jayden Hunt is the only reason we won that game and it was due to a bit of dare - be nice if collectively we could employ that mindset across more than the last quarter

    Hamish McLaughlin just openly admitted that he was barracking for us to kick a point so that it guaranteed Carlton a spot in the finals.

    Hey Hamish, how about you and Gil [censored] off to an island and never return.

    Melk and Petty take a bow.

    Don't look at how Geelong are playing they are going in with soft lead up games into September.

    Massive character tonight.

    Jayden Hunt played I think one of the best quarter of his career. He was immense. 

    Really good quarter - great drive and connection. He's coming back to form.

    I felt the commentators really wanted a Carlton win.

    I could and will watch that Kozzie goal endlessly.

    Absolutely. I'm rapt for that last 60 seconds but there is no way this forward line in this team wins a flag this year.

    You little ripper, I thought we were toast and will take a last gasp victory every day. I think we ran that game out a little better than the last couple of weeks but the Baggers seemed to have more runners for longer.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • 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.
