Not even the do gooders of last week can say we've been the better side in this oneย 

ย 

Two things late in the last quarter:

  • Stoppage 10 metres out from WCE point post, Oliver handballs to no-one TOWARDS their goal.ย 
  • Petty v McGovern on the wing, absolutely no contest at all. No strength or contest, just a simple mark to McGovern.

My wife, who watches some Dees game, but isn't really into footy, said "it looks like they don't want to play".ย 

Worst I have seen the Dees play since 2019. No intensity or passion at all.ย 

OK just checked the score. What the hell. I know we lost lever but seriously it's west coast.ย 

Who's on waterman?

Theyโ€™ve had 2 seasons to address our fwd issues with BB & Tmac succumbed to injuries & form yet failed trying to turn defenders & Grundy into fwds & in doing so robbed them of another flagย 

Spot on, except I'd say it's 3 years we've had to work on an oppo key forward to get them to us, for nadda.

We've played Petty forward when he's a far better back, paid $600k to watch Grundy play VFL, and now are playing BBB and Turner forward simply because there's no one else.

I'd say our window is well and truly shut. One flag during lockdown from the best list we've had in 60 years. So disappointingย

The imbalance of our list really showing. We clearly can't trust Fullarton and he's just another break in case of emergency list blogger like Schache.ย 

Iโ€™m confused, you say โ€œCLEARLY canโ€™t trust Fullartonโ€

Based on what ?

He hasnโ€™t been given a chance yet.

This was the game to try him.

Instead they opted for Brown.

โ€IMHOโ€ that was incompetency from the Selectors.ย

Im sorry, but max past it?ย  He has been in career best form and a lock for AA

He doesn't look 100% fit and he will be 34 next year.

Of course he will still dominate in some games but, how much longer can we expect him to keep going?

Wow. A full implosion.

Getting in now so I've spat my dummy already and am not tempted to join in the post-game misery w---.

Stars were flat, and the tail was loooooong.

Passenger culture creeping in.

It may be time to rethink and plan ahead.

Use this season to develop the team of the future.ย 

That includes what are we doing with our coaching staff (starting with the Ruckman who is training our forwards).

I have some hope in our yourn guns like JVR, Taj, Windsor, McVee, Kozzy, Rivers.

Maybe it's just the end of the road for our 2021 players like TMac, BBB, Petty (if his head is already in Adelaide), Salem.

We could use some young talent in the midfield. Max is also starting to look past it, and understandably so, he's carried this team since 2015.

It's gonna be a long season.

Agree with all that except Max still a few more good games in him but the others mentioned on the money. The good thing is the game nearly over so donโ€™t have to listen to any more of this commentary,

Goodwin...ย  learnings..... none ..

Our whole forward line, Fritsch included, have provided absolutely no defensive pressure.

Goes straight in and straight back out.ย

Career best form and best in the league. Im not talking about age ect.ย  You've lost it if you think he looks slow and past it

Agreed.

Although Tommy has had a very good year down back.

It's our fwd line excluding Fritta that just lacks a Darling type player.

Add now our mids look suspect.

JV must be injured.

The premiership window is closing fast if it ain't after tonight.

Our fwd lines not going to change.ย 

Our mids mightย

Weโ€™ve changed, for the worse. Attempted to reverse engineer something like 2020 Richmond and havenโ€™t added the list pieces to fill the gaps for where the game is goingย 

And that's the gameplan in a nut shell.

Those disparaging the Club Coach and team can get back under the rock they came from.

Based on never picking him when we have one ruckman every single week.

Not a hard one to follow.

Our best forward def pressure was trio of Spargo anb kozzy doing the business

injuries and other reasons have meant we havenโ€™t been able to run this this seasonย

LoLoLoL Max been our best player all year, has one quiet game and he's getting past it.

not often we concede 100 points.ย 

a day to forget

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 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.

  • 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
