Gotta say this is a garbage performance from our midfield. It's like we're letting them have a few bloopies.

 

Petty to the backline, Trac forward. He’ll why not throw May forward for a bit, see if he can get some confidence.

And for the love of god someone tell Fritsch to stop gelling his hair and get into the game.

    Bizarre Game. 
     

    Fritsch, Langdon and Lever are nowhere to be seen. 

    If they can enter the match we should do some damage. If they can’t, this is going to the wire.

    I certainly can see why we tried to get Essendons pick to get Humphrey. Guy is going to be weapon.

    May is done.

    70 to 45 contested possessions.

    Gold Coast just working way harder.

    That is very worrying. GC just hungrier and they’ll continue to work hard given they have a sniff. Really need to lift.

    Pathetic umpiring. Recall the bounce.

    Terrible bounce but Grundy can’t just go running past the ball and jumping in to Witts. That’s exceptionally stupid.

    The underrated reason to why the Pies got rid of him is because he’s really dumb for an experienced player. Has no concept of playing the percentages 

     

    From my position in the outer it looks like the suns are employing the collingwood tactic of having more players at the contest. No backline can defend that movement.

    They have grown in confidence since halfwsy through the 1st quarter.

    Grundy and May need to lift up.

    Is May still carrying some injury? He looks very sluggish in open space.

    Geee we look really off.

    When have we looked on? 
    we have been underperforming since round 11 last year and it’s starting to get frustrating

    Once again, the umpires are embarrassing the game. Shocking inconsistencies. 

    I hate them. I honestly do. It’s a deep seated I really want to burn their houses down kind of hate. 😳

    We are in front. 

    Go Dees.

    Bruise free football, midfield not putting enough pressure on the suns. Same as last few games

    Our much vaunted backline not doing much vaunting. May carrying something? Need Petty back there, Turner being rag-dolled by Casboult.

    Slender lead, poor half.

    We look unfocused, giving them too much room. They’re taking marks at will in our backline. May has been horrid. Please put Petty back.

     I’m loathe to say this already but the reality is that we’re not there yet, not even close. Like last year our wins have come against low ranking teams or ones who have not yet found their stride.

    Our wins are v 10, 11, 14, 16 and 18. Losses against top 8 teams.

    We need to make big improvements. If we sneak a win out of this I’ll be very happy but we need to address stuff like what the hell happened to our backline, where is May? Why do we disappear so often? 

    Needless to say we need a big statement setting second half.

    Not enough players working hard hard enough and hitting the contest with intent. Gold Coast first to the loose ball on so many occasions.

    Most of our players can lift so expecting a response.

    • 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

      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.
