That peanut Jon Anderson starting a rumour on 3AW this morning that Clarrie won't play๐Ÿคฌ

usually rumours like this ย donโ€™t come from nowhere. The benefit might be that itโ€™s really then a 3 week break for him to the tigers game.ย

Gee the peanut gallery will be in overdrive if Oliver is a late out.

this is true, but goodwin doesn't play funny buggers - in the presser yesterday he was asked directly about claz and said "he'll play"

If Clarry is out, I don't mind. He needs to get his hand right. He is too important for the rest of the season.

ย 

I'd like to see Petty play a somewhat defensive role on Harris Andrews. Keep him out of it and ย Brisbane are in real trouble.

ย 

Why have Brisbane started badly?

any key outs for them?

One of the biggest threats for tonight will be Bailey, IMO. He always seems to bob-up against us.ย 

ย 

Agree.ย 

I'd also add that we have also struggled their other excellent medium half forwards/mids/utilisesย  in particular mcluggage and McCarty.ย 

Defensively it's been our Achilles heel for years.

Part of the issue against the lions is we have to send one of our best mid sized defenders to Cameron - and basically play him man on man (ie not much zoning off).

But it's also a personnel issue.

Nev was brilliant as a small/medium defender in 2018, just about the best. But since then we've struggled in that space.

The juddster was brilliant last yearย  and has become our go to player for the opposition's best medium forward.

But the lions have four excellent medium forwards to cover.

I think Howes was brought in to strengthen our ability to cover such playersย  and thus far had been terrific at doing so. He'sslotted in down back like a 200 gamer and gives us so much more flexibility.ย 

So, I'm more confident than I have been for ages that we have the tools to cover the lions' dangerous medium forwards.


Look thereโ€™s only one thing I know for sure, Koltin Tholstrup will be kicking 3 goals tonight.

Bookmark it, rack it, set your watch to it, circle your calendars around it and set your VCRs to it.

Game day, legends!!

Who's excited? I'm excited!

OH, AND MY 1Y0 WHO WOKE UP THIS MORNING AT 455AM AND REFUSED TO GO BACK TO SLEEP - CLEARLY COULDN'T WAIT FOR THE GAME!

Sadly it appears Salem may of passed his best. Injuries and other issues may of caught up with him. Personally I'm holding judgement until writing him off as he's a one of our smartest footballer's. We can probably adapt his role to make him more than useful into the future.

VCR's! Are they still a thing?


Please everyone who is going can they barrack as twice as loud, because I am unable to go because my back is putting great pressure on my groin, which is causing a lot of pain, and making it hard to walk. I am using a walker to walk, and taking pain killers. I am seeing a physio who is very happy with progress. Too hard to go with walker, and I doing exercises and plenty of walking to get better. This is the first Melbourne game I have missed at the Mcg for many years.

In his last 2 games Lachie Neale has sat out the match with a massive bag of ice on his ankle.

Having said that he got 35 and 27 possessions in those games.

eh?

he's been very good so far this year

once he moves back into midfield rotation - likely after bowey is back - he'll win a lot more footy

don't look at his fantasy / supercoach scores for his effect on team, and team balance

No sign of WCW on here yet,shes probably on her second pack of fags by now

  • 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
