We didn’t deserve to win, but we were good enough to get close.

    Port are being well coached this year. They have a few spuds that are playing decent, hard football.

    Very concerned about our record against top 8 teams.

    Didn’t deserve it.

    Terrible at clearances, terrible at getting the ground ball, terrible tackling (in the last quarter ANB actually stood flat-footed while he watched a Port Player gathered the ball and had to time to dispose of it before going in for the tackle) went to water under pressure.

    I said last week that good teams willl destroy us, we have been beating up on mediocre teams and got found out tonight.

    We need more speed in the side, Hunter hasn’t done anything for weeks.

    That boundary throw in at the end was comically bad but didn’t cost us the game.

    Definitely not blaming umpiring but there were some real howlers and non calls in that last 5 mins along with a pathetic throw in at 15 seconds left.

    Chocco needs to work on our ball handling skills. The amount of fumbling we do is ridiculous.

    First quarter was terrible but can’t be overly disappointed with the loss. Port are a good team and that was hostile territory. We did well to be in a winning position and they just go on top of us. Need to sort out these quarters where our mids seemingly go missing.

    Aside from half a quarter, we were a very poor, uninspiring team outclassed by a better team. 

    We came in soft beating up on bad teams and tonight were shown up by a contender. Another loss to a team in the 8. Not a good look. 

    Ah well we’ll always have 2021 😔

    Can’t expect to win games of footy with 15-20 minutes at this level, especially as we start playing better sides.

    I hope there are a few blokes feeling guilty for some appalling efforts.

    We lack a bit of appetite for the contest and have an air of arrogance about us at the moment.

    Not sure we are where we hope to be at this stage of the year, particularly from a gameplay and cohesion standpoint

    Would've been good to make Butters accountable after collecting 35,000 disposals in the first half? Rotate Hibberd, Riv and ANB off him. When a guy is completely off the chain he has to be stopped

    Pressure and clearance won the game/lost the game.  

    We expected too much from too few, with only some superhuman efforts getting us a whisker in front.

    Pressure is the way to beat Narrm.

    Very few winners tonight and way too many guys went missing.

    We played one great quarter and were flogged in 3. Questions will rightly be asked about our ability to beat other contenders.

    Disappointed, but we got what we deserved.

    We are making up the numbers this year. We aren’t anywhere near good enough for a flag. 

    Pathetic effort to play for 10mins of one quarter - we got what we deserved even with the shafting by the umpires.

    You look at our lineup on paper and just wonder how we can be so ordinary so often when coming up against the better teams.

    We seem to be smack bang in the middle of wasting the best group of MFC talent we may see in our lifetimes.

    Then again, maybe our guys are just a bit overrated.

    • 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.
