Great quarter so far! We'll take that. 

We've dominated with so many forward 50 entries but just not connecting as we would like. That fine! That's the upside in the game that if we can just connect better we'll win.

Go dees!

Did I see Fritsch limping off towards the race then? 😬

Happy to be in front against an always-difficult opponent on a ground that is difficult to play on.

Sydney's contested marking is giving them some looks, and our fumbly ball handling is costing us at times.

We dominated that quarter.

It's not his ability to get the ball It's the decision making.

And his soley one-sided 30m maximum kicking distance

I thought Nathan Jones was commentating for the first 1.5 quarters, turns out it's Burgoyne

Same!

How is nobody seeing how wild these set ups are? 
That we are still winning is insane. 
Hunter in the centre bounce. I laughed so hard.

Thyroid issues can really kick one’s butt. I suspect that’s been the major cause of Salo’s problems this year. 

Sure from A fitness point of view, but watching where he is running to or when he has ball in hand (over the last few weeks) has been so unlike himself. But you might be right. 
tbh if it wasn’t Salem he would have been dropped a few weeks ago.


Very tight, pressured, squeezed kind of game with lots of pressured turnovers. Liking Turner. Full team defence looks strong. The SCG is so tiny it makes for a scrap, and most goals will come from mids and small forwards. Tidy our kicking, we win well.

Just making our thoughts plain. Sorry for differing from your opinion.

How do you rate his tackle pressure and disposal?

I rate his tackling and disposal on par with Langdon's and miles better than Jordon's.

FWIW, I fully endorse diversity of opinion but Hunter has randomly been a whipping boy on this site all year. Langdon had a long form slump in the first half of the season and he didn't get nearly as much criticism as Hunter does.

What? Surely they would talk about this on the coverage. Lord give me strength!!!

Very scrappy game but looks like it’s getting on dees terms that qtr, should break in our favour if we continue

The dislike for Hunter on this site is really embarrassing and cringe. He's been consistently good this year and will possibly finish in the top 5 in our best and fairest.

And by the way, he is a way better player than Jordon.

I totally agree, except for the bit where you used “cringe” as an adjective (and yes, I know, I know, but they’re wrong too). 

First year at the club. People need to chill. 
 

 

Our backline is just so much better with Tomlinson in there. He’s not superstar, but he plays his lockdown role well enough (88% one on one win rate, best at the club). He allows the rest of our backs to play to their strengths. It’s almost become comical now watching our defense turn to water when he’s dropped.

We’re just cruising today so fingers crossed for no injuries.

lib party preselection and no more commentary work for c7 will suit him

lmfao ...

Half time

Just not quite taking our chances inside 50 

Gawn. Brayshaw. Fritsch.  Melksham (loved that mark and goal) 

🤯🤯Salem. 
🤯Kozzzy 

🤔Turner some good and some not good 

Strstegy - defensive…2 or 3 behind the ball and two down at stoppage but we’re winning clearances !!! 


There is a scenario where we would play Sydney in a 1st Semi final if they play/beat Carlton and we lose to Collingwood (if GWS won today).

Sorry, that's the 20 year old in me

I’m liking the forward line setup. Not so much Rivo and Maysie taking shots for goal!

Does anyone else reckon Rivo looks like Adam Ant with his sunscreen?

Only if there is a quick whistle blown in time for the player to make a decision. If the umpire hasn’t blown the whistle for the first free, the player has no choice but to play on because no free has been paid yet.

Well at time we will agree to disagree because players just keep going.

Interesting call from Buddy to do a farewell at the SCG but not do anything at the Grand final.

I guess Sydney is his home now and he's played there for years. Nothing more to it?

  • 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.
