Absolutely [censored] me that Petty and AJ give away some of the most unnecessary free kicks. Unless AJ has a remarkable last 3qtrs, then there's surely no way he plays next week.

JvR actually worried Moore a bit last year so I'd definitely bring him in.

Not enough pressure on the Saints ball carriers. They're moving the ball too easily, leaving our defenders panicking

This.

Our defenders back themselves to close space but they can’t do anything with zero pressure in the forward line and midfield

Play this at the MCG and you get the same turnovers and lack of effort

Suspect that unless there's a rapid improvement it'll be Jeffo or JVR for Petty next week. Not marking is one thing, but getting constantly outworked and pushed off the contest is something else.

He has no body strength in the contest most of the time unless he's on a favourable match up. Not enough to hold down any key forward role at AFL level anyway.

There's no burst speed off the mark either.

That lack of strengh / power off the mark means he is most often unble to get separation to hold / create space or lead up.

Generally he just isn't mobile enough or powerful enough in any form to hold down a KF role and be effective at it.

Not sure what the FD are seeing in him as a KF.

He's also well covered as a Tall Defender by the likes of T-Mac at the moment. I just wouldn't play him at all and instead look to the likes of Jeffo, JVR (if he hits AFL worthy form at some point) as forwards and if we need another tall defender, start blooding Adams instead.

    Don't blame the ground, we're on the [censored] beach right now. Smacked in the middle, smacked in 50-50 balls, some of the weakest efforts going round.

    Classic case of thinking it will all just happen, the overconfidence was on full display when Kozzie decided he was better than the system. Handed the Saints the momentum and barely had an I50 for the rest of the quarter.

    But believe it or not, while the damage should be done it's not quite yet, have to do it the hard way but please come out with fire.

    Bowey gets a shove in the back. Umpire 22 on the spot, play on! Why am I not surprised? 🤮


    Has the game gone past Lever? I feel like he never wins a one on one.

    Tom `Mac for Lever? Hard to see, but bleeding goals/scores with Lever at the moment.

    Goal kicking coach has to be the highest priority at this club.

    skills coach required

    how choc has held onto the role for as long as he has given our regression in ball use beggars belief

    AJ's goal kicking no good

    Not just his goal kicking, all of his kicking. Mr. Spray.

    • 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.
