Yep it’s a real puzzle, Champion Data measures us as the second fastest ball movers in the competition, yet we when we enter our F50, everyone else is already there?

    Champion Data . . . talk about the emperor with no clothes.

    Very few leads or movement too often, so opposition backmen guard grass. And going back 2022 - 2024, our forward gameplan was kick to contest, and get goals from ground balls or stoppages. I think the congestion is also a flow on from then.

    The surface at the left end of screen is a bloody disgrace.

    If anyone does a knee they should sue the AFL for allowing play in a substandard ground.

    Great footballer with great goal sense, but the worst over-celebrator in AFL history. Annoys the carp out of me.

    Commentators said it was due to an Andrea Bocelli concert and relayed turf

    Weird thing is Bocelli said it looked fine when he left

    Reckon it’s just me but I don’t mind Papley. Gets in people’s faces and they fall for it. Love his energy and wish we had him

    That concert was months ago though, what have the ground staff been doing?

    Not much apparently

    disgraceful maintenance, not like you don’t get rain in Shydney

    What a fantastic contest and massive pressure. And I have always thought that the jumpers of these two are a spectacular contrast especially at night - second only of course to Dees v anyone.

    Their 50s look open because nobody can keep their feet – half of the players are lying on the ground.

    BTW. What’s happened to the SCG this week? Mario Lanza concert? Pavarotti? Caruso? Certainly looks like they have dug up half the ground. Couldn’t be from that one 12 weeks ago? Were they radioactive?

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.
