Hawthorn are going to be a huge challenge next week.

They will be.

And a big factor is we will struggle to come up from last nights game such was it's intensity. 

I'm glad the Hawks have travel, and one less day to recover.

They will look to to to us exactly what they did to the Pies - run us of our feet

    Port probably have second locked up, and the all important home final, if they can beat Freo on the road next week.

    That would be crud apples.

    Look, no one wants to hear it now, but this Port game is why we shouldn’t sell games to NT. Why would we give up home ground advantage in such a tight race? Lost that by less than a goal. If that was 4 points we are second.

    Its a losing mentality selling games.

    Yeah it’s definitely not a football first decision by our club.

    Hopefully we get rid of it some time in the near future.

    We've dropped a few too many games against top 8 teams in close margins that we should have won.

    Another soft call of a goal.

    Watching the Richmond game and they took 90 seconds to decide if Riewoldt took a mark on the line or not.

    Last night they made a game deciding call in 35 seconds.

    If we can win one of the next two, we will have a home final against the Pies without Nick and a double chance.

    That’s probably our best result at this stage.

    How ironic would it be for finishing 4th being the best option?

    "INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE!!"

    - as per... every. time.

    The umpires are exonerated for their decision making.

     

    Jonno Ralph - letting us all know that the AFL have 'ticked off' the decision on Petracca's non goal last night... FMD.

    100% agree now.

    Probably good to see the Lions beat Collingwood next week just to dent Collingwood’s confidence and form further, and Port winning at least the same number as us after today.

    We will beat Collingwood in a qualifying final at the MCG. We would be underdogs in the other games. 
     

    If we did finish 4th, the loser of that match (1st v 4th) will probably end up playing Carlton at the MCG the following week. Still would prefer that situation as I’m confident we’d beat Collingwood.

    And with Moore maybe touch and go.

    Just need to get it done against the Hawks then we can do whatever we need to against the Swans to get the final match up we want.  The exact reason why all last round games should be played at the same time.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.
