Despite the conventional wisdom on here Jackson was pretty good from what I saw of that Q...a nice tap to advantage and a couple of good grabs. Happy to see Freo getting smashed but look with both eyes people.

What really surprises me tho is how much bigger and slower he looks. Did they get him to bulk up to play deep forward? It seems to have nullified his ground level athleticism.

Edit: he also doesnโ€™t look happy. He was always happy and smiling at Melbourne.ย

I mean seriously. Can we get better commentators. Please.

I was literally thinking this before, it's like they want him to be a bullocking forward. Really lumbering aroundย 

TBH, I derided this thread when it first appeared. I am now a clear convert.

I now have two games to give a damn about weekly*

I guess that makes up for the detached apathy that I held for the 15 years 2003-2018.

2018 and even 2017 were fun years I reckonย 

Can you imagine winning the Premiership this year and then walking away with a pick 2,3 or 4 on draft night.

Freo reek of Melbourne 2019. Long season ahead for them.

This deathride is going all the way.ย

He looks like a defeated man out there does Jacko.

For once we would know what it feels like to be Jeelong.

I would post a pic of Homer droulling, but don't know how.

I've had my doubts about him but Rankine is looking the goods so far this season. Been excellent today

Is there a smarter player at forward 50 stoppages?


Freo look horrible. unless their defence and mids are flying they wonโ€™t win games

each time they rebound they have no options or connection. as average as LJ has been Tabener as the senior fwd has been woeful. doesnโ€™t compete

they would have expected 5-0 or 4-1 given their run. wait until they have some tough games!

freo have Dogs Lions and Swans in the next 5

2007 - 2018 EO we were in it from 1998 - 2006.!!

Iโ€™m starting to almost feel bad for him. But then I remember that he made his choices and we are possibly going to run away from this with a top 5 draft pick so ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

The lack of mid forward connection is Freo's big problem and I can't see this resolving itself anytime soon. Some of the delivery today was dreadful.ย

Freo look like a genuine bottom 4 side

Ironically, there's a 2019 Melbourne vibe about them.....at least that season gave us the pick we landed Luke Jackson with.....!

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
