Back 6 were [censored] unreal!

Adam Tomlinson take a bloody bow. Ive questioned his work this year but even after last week I was satisfied with his performance. This week he went up a notch! Lucky he wasn't dropped as @DeeSpencer was adamant he would... 😎

This now has to be our settled back 6 for the rest of the year.

Still think Petty will be there in September. 

Tomlinson's lack of athleticism costs him against the better forward lines.

 

I honestly thought everyone played to their best. Yes there were mistakes but the run and attack from every Demon won the day

Geez Louise. Only we could have concocted a scenario where we nearly coughed up a game at the death that could’ve been won by 15 goals.

Is that a thing do we think?? We were the better side but they did look a bit flat in the last.....

Looked flat?! They nearly overran us with seconds to go!

You can take the American out of America, but you can't take the arrogant, entitled [censored] out of the American

Incorrect. Tomlinson needs to play a role. He can concede 2-3 goals a game and we can still keep the opposition to under 10 goals because it allows May and Lever to play their natural game. 
If he keeps this form up and we can play Petty forward, we will win the flag. Yes, I said it. 

Being 16 points in front with 1:44 left on the clock, and having the ball in our hands from a point being kicked, we really shouldnt have seen this one go as close as it did.

Caught it from Geelong’s prelim team from 2021

Not pumping up our tyres too much, but that was definitely a grand final preview

Not sure the Pies will be there 😁.

He’s a [censored] but 100% not a Trump supporter.

Yes, it is unfair to brand him with that when there is such a wondrous variety of annoying American types to choose from.

Right.

You are going to be really disappointed for the rest of the season then.

I mean really.

Clueless comment.

If this was about any other country there would be outrage about racism. Can't you just say you don't like the bloke and leave the anti USA out.

Personally, stuff him.

Why do umpires get to umpire teams back into games against us so often. 

The umpires under instructions from the AFL regard themselves as 'entertainers par excellence', far more important than the players, and teams. If we killed The Filth by significant amounts, the 'entertainment' level and resultant anxiety from a spectator's point of view would be massively eroded. Plus, of course, this game was against The Filth and its hotline to the media in general, the AFL Headquarters, the gate receipts, the broadcast rights, the Tribunal and the thousands of toothless simple minds (so represented) in the Piggery. Sad to say, but evident. 

I knew we would win, and JSmith would start making a supporting difference to the game up forward when I noticed several Demon supporters breaking out the French brie at 3/4-time. Of course, they didn't have any wine; who would drink the swill provided by the caterers at the ground - and you cannot bring a dusty but mature red into the ground as an accompaniment. Viney and Salem were great today - and May was a rock, well supported. 

We are into 4.50 for the flag, Pies 4.00

Are we finally looking at a MFC v Pies GF? That would truly be amazing.

Not enough love for Lachie Hunter's hit on Hoskin-Elliot (3.54 left in the first quarter). Was awesome. Too bad Grundy couldn't finish the work off.

Tell me you're clueless about footy circa 2023 without saying you're clueless about footy circa 2023.

Pls Binno.

His fumbles and indecisiveness going i50 are killers. If we lost everyone else would be asking for his head too.

Perhaps he's just in the middle of a loading phase & he'll come good....? 


Unbelievably gritty, hard and admirable win. We played our system and played it well. We were unbelievably patient and stubborn and that got us the game. 

But I will say something. 

We could be a dynastic team if we had a couple/few more elite ball users. Because my god do our best players butcher it consistently. 

And that's something I hope we address in the off season. 

Edited by JimmyGadson

17 tackles inside F50 to 4 and awesome pressure all over the ground creating doubt in the pies and turnovers.

That sort of effort will win plenty of matches.

Kick straight and that was a 5-6 solid victory.

Stoked with this win.

Kossie played to his best! I don't think so.

 

We won this game the way we like to win. Hard contested footy. Won clearances (without Oliver!) and contested possessions and dominated defensively. 
That is pleasing as we know this method wins us a flag. 

I really hope the younguns take the confidence gained from this game and never doubt themselves, that they can take on and easily be as good or better than much more fancied opponents.

A wonderful team effort, and when the chips were down, they ground it out and stood up with their more experienced team mates.

Joyous day!

  • 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.
