I didn't mention the commentator'sย 

Oh yeah Demonland would definitely not be getting stuck into him like they wrote off Kolt one game in, told us Roo was no good, Jefferson is a hack and McVee should be delisted ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ˜‚

Thereโ€™s a big difference between having swagger and self belief, and carrying on and being arrogant when youโ€™ve played a handful of games for the wooden spooners.ย

It's been a while since we had a win like that without Gawn, Petracca, Oliver or Viney being in our best.

Husband is undefeated since 2017

Bring him to every game and finals please and thank you.


We were younger than them today (25yr 8m compared to 26yr 1m) but slightly more experienced (114 games to 105.4).

As promising as that is for us, how bad is that for them? They're older but less experienced than us when they're supposed to be in full rebuild mode.

Reid and Kelly are explosive jets. They were the only thing preventing a 100+ point belting. We beat them well at stoppages but we couldn't match their pace in the middle.

no media conference today?

We are building up to our best footy.

I reckon that nails it.

I still donโ€™t know how theyโ€™re so bad. They have Waterman, Allen and Ryan up forward. They have Yeo, Kelly, Reid in the middle and McGovern, Duggan and Barras down back. Thatโ€™s some good players who would get a game for any side.ย

Disco Turner thoughts? Jury is still out - I wish he was playing with experienced forwards ala 2021 vintage TMac and Benny Brown. I love his contest and the fact that he rarely wastes it - not impacting the game yet but it may come. Iโ€™m hopeful but not yet confident.

Long term I think he goes back as a key defender allowing Jefferson to team up with JvR, maybe as soon as round 1 next year.

Love his aerial game and is competitive as hell, not convinced he's a natural forward.

What a lousy comment.

@beelzebub, Mr Realist himself, "thanked" it.

In other words, he also thinks it's "delusional" to say we're back in the hunt.

The same guy who pre-game said "win, and win well, and there's some momentum and belief".

And in response to a 9-goal win which gave us 5% and puts us a win and 5% behind 5th.

It's not delusional. It's correct.ย

I reckon a change of coach would help enormously. Seems like they need a new voice to inspire them.ย 

Daniel Turner is a reliable kick for goal and he has good hands. The future is bright for him.

Well done Jason Taylor .

Long may they rot under Simpson. I hate them. Except Hunt.ย

Fair chance there's some truth to the rumours that Simpson's lost the players.

On paper, you're right, they should be better than this.ย 

54 point. WIN. ย  Not the best we have played but pretty good.

enjoy the learnings, ย  And there was plenty of them.ย 
some of our young blokes are going to be very special. Hey Bruce.ย 
ย 

win like that next week and there will be some raised eyebrows.

win 6 more and we have absolutely turned our season around.

a bit different sentiment to 3 weeks ago.

hasnโ€™t won an argument since then either I bet!

Windsor was amazing today! his work rate is incredible, the fact he can run like he does and still just find some juice to sprint the way he can when required is amazing! not many players have the speed/endurance combo like he does, and even less also possess incredible footy IQ and poise.ย 

Loving the Rivers move into the midfield!ย 

I don't think it's any coincidence sadly that Van Rooyen and Fritsch played their best games in some time the week Petty was out and Melksham was in, the sum of all parts was significantly better today and it really did highlight to me how big a hinderance Petty has become up forward.ย

It's the kids for me that is the story of today.

Kolt has swagger and campaigner about him. I have desperately wanted this kind of player since Bernie Vince or Tom Bugg. He's also a very impressive young player

JVR will be a our number 1 key forward from next year onwards. He's got it all.

Windsor - Enough said, the kid has class and star factor.

McVee - All class and silk. His composure right on the members wing pretty dam impressive.ย 

Andy Moniz Wakefield - give me a contract extension. The kid is a beauty. Tough, composed and reminds of another #45 who used to bounced off half back.

Turner rarely loses a contests. He engages and then brings the ball to ground. He'll only get better with age and experience.

Then there is Rivers and Koz who play like 150 game veterans.ย 

Great post - I agree.ย  Maybe it was knowing they should win however these guys all looked likely players.ย  Kolt's swag and Turner jumping at everything.ย  Was very enjoyable.ย  I also thought the defensive pressure particularly in the second was stuff I had not seen for a while.ย  An enjoyable win

Thought Dirk was fantastic

Great competitor layz. Lots to like about himย 

ย 

Can I just say how much I live the 1:10 games. It was perfect sitting there today and I'm home by 5.

I know they aren't ideal for marketing & prime time but it's a good slot.

Also the kids stuff out the front looked great. The kids were having a ball. Even when I went out at half time they were still doing the activitiesย 

I don't want to go full demonland and whinge about a big win because:

1: we showed great skill in ball movement during an at times clinical exhibition;

2: JVR was great (but for some odd misses);

3: the Kolt was also terrific;

4: we tackled strongly early in setting up our domination and ran the game out sans Max;

5: Melky looked primed and added to his goal tally;

6: Kozzie took that speccy he's been chasing for five years;

7: the kid Wilson was back to form...buuuuut,

WE SHOUDA WON BY 80 POINTS BUT FOR SOME LOUSY DELIBERATE SHOTS!!!!

(And we owed them.)

  • 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.

    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
