Kozzi, Salem, Viney all solid

we started to get our structure right in the last 7-8 mins

itll come. 

Brown needs to aggressively attack the ball not just wait for it. 

and we generally need to go in harder and win contested footy at stoppages

    It’s been horrid all round. AFL making a mess of the rules again with random interpretation changes mid season

    Well we had a chance to recruit McKay or Curnow, yet we decided to draft Weideman.

    Thanks for the history lesson 

    Eagles have done at least 4 incorrect disposals / throws not penalised.  
     

    And why do the umpires  try to coach?  If thee is a block, penalise it and the message will get through.

    Really think it's time to go past Ben Brown.  Hope he proves me wrong for the rest of the game but I think he is cooked.

    If the rest stopped kicking it behind him or over his head he’d look better

    A very useless comment to make 9 years down the track  🙄

    Not that far behind on the scoreboard and plenty of time left in this. We'll still win from here, but there are some serious problems we need to address if we're going to compete for a flag again this year and the next few. Our midfield has been horrible this year. Horrible. Our forward line doesn't have the right personnel, but the midfield does them no favors.

    Are you sure?

    Harley Reid alone could tear our midfield apart. Same old [censored], poor centre clearance.

    With all the supply their forwards are going to get it looks dire.

    Why do we lose first quarters so often.

    There is something wrong with our game prep for sure.

    The lazy kicky to players is killing us.

    Some of these blokes need a rocket up them  during the break.

    Salo first game back excellent.

    We don't deserve top 4, the way we are playing and the luck some of the other teams have (see Port and Collingwood). We will be lucky to play finals. 

    Unless things change drastically we are not a contender this season, simple as that.

    not simple as that at all

    3 weeks ago Giants and Cats were unbeatable and flag favourites 

    when we win this game we will be third


    For the life of me when will our club ever find a gun , even the bottom teams have better power fwds and our so called A grade mids look d grade

    I read your posts and I want to contact the boss of Guinness Book of World Records. If there's a record for relentlessly posting "we're doomed, we're doomed, don't you know we're doomed" posts, surely you've just surpassed it El Diatribe.

    Have you thought about one per quarter?

    I noticed Kossie leave the ground to bump high again early in that quarter. So much for learning his lesson. Very lucky he missed completely

    It mostly comes back to the mids getting some two way running into their game and hitting targets as we transition forward with some speed on the ball.

    The stop and prop possession / momentum game is a killer for forwards and there's no need for it unless you ARE needing to arrest momentum later in a game or icing / protecting a lead.

    Viney needs to get more accurate in general.  Massive turnover king this season which is killing many of our transitions forward.

    Sparrow on the wing like it’s 2020.

    No cohesion with the forwards. 

    May and Gawn giving nothing. 

    Oliver coughing it up. No cohesion with Viney, Oliver and most of the mids.

    Shes going to get ugly

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
