Van Rooyen isn't the answer for a backup ruckman 

Been real good as a ruckman. Not sure what you are watching

We are playing a different style and our poorer skills and decision making is laid bare. 
 

Need to get the lead and lock the game down. 

 

They look too polished unless we lift


Don’t usually post in the game day thread but that 2nd qtr effort was disgusting. Brisbane are hardly the toughest & they smashed us around the footy. We looked soft. 

Without Petracca it feels like we’d a bottom 8 team.

ANB has been killing us for weeks now, his turn overs and fumbles just ope us up on the rebound

I'd say months! 

Anyone have Hardwicks phone number?

Agreed. Giving us good use with his second efforts. He’s really not bad.

Spargo deserves an absolute roast!

Gave Brisbane all the momentum after that stupid turnover when he decided to kick across the field near CHF and caused the turnover.

I'd dead set Sub him out for that.

100% our biggest weakness tonight.

He has never hit form at any stage since the concussion.  Coming back to bite the selectors on the bum.

A pitty Clazz aint ready.  Straight swap

Yep nailed it. I'm all for fast ball movement but needs to be in the right players hands.

Trying to play a bit too quick and risky. Been good to watch but lions on top now

As soon as the pace and pressure picked up, we've panicked and our forward 50s are ooozing pus again 


Unfortunately May is getting taught a lesson by Daniher. 

He really got going that quarter.

Their half backs are just clearing it way too easily. 

Doesn't help when Spargo, Anb, Melksham and Pickett offer zero defensive pressure. 

Glad to see the negative trolls are back after losing that quarter.

A very disappointing quarter, but they are a top 4 team for a reason. They move it better than us. They have much better forwards than we do, so they can actually kick it forward with some purpose. They were all over us and make us pay for every turnover, while rarely turning it over themselves. 

 

We have to get back to winning the contested game. We can’t win it in a shoot out.

Don't worry guys, our loading program will see us blow them out of the park in the second half. That will be the reason we win. 

@binmanand @A F guarantee it. 

But if it doesn't occur, you can't blame loading okay? 

It'll be other reasons. 

 

Are you at the game this week Steve, or still in Europe complaining that Melbourne supporters don't turn up to games, and in the same breath lauding how important Collingwood's crowd is to their arousal levels?

We need Smith's height and mobility at half fwd

Should be straight in for Spargo from now.

Let's hope we don't wait till the last 15 min

He was supposed to be a fwd though. Not like we don't have a better ruck option in Grundy.

Can't defend quick ball movement!!!

Any chance we can get a coach to tell these guys to lower eyes and hit a leading target going forward !!!

Bomb in everytime to Brisbane advantage

You’d think we are playing a division 3 team, not a premiership contender.

  • 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.
