    Viney has lifted this quarter. He has been impressive

    I’ll be shocked if he doesn’t miss next week for that tackle of Rowell. Lucky Rowell has the head of a rock.

    Loved the review of the point. Clearly play on but a clear throw 1 m from our goals

    Yep very poor!


    Regardless of the first quarter, going to be uphill with 2 men down, especially as one was our back-up ruck.

    He’s just a horrendous ball user, for someone so powerful he should be a weapon with baulks and changes of direction, not to mention taking tacklers on to release to free opponents.

    If he doesn’t have a straight line to goal he’s practically useless

    you can cancel out the first quarter. No one was getting a possession in the forward line

    Gonna be annoyed when Max Gawn trots out the old "We can't be giving up 6 goal starts to teams," line again after this game. No s-- Sherlock. As captain what are you doing about it?

    But Rowell not forced off for a HIA check

    Good quarter.

    Shame we were sound asleep in the first.

    The umps were not as heavy on the whistle and it showed.

    Actually missed a few opportunities with Tracca burning a few but he was good on other areas.

    Well down in marks but at least we showed some intent finally.

    Need more from Fritta and Sparrow.

    Really getting tired of the same script every week. If it isn’t inaccuracy, it is slow starts that eventually kills us.

    Slow starts against St Kilda, Essendon, Geelong cost us the eventual match after trying extra hard to get back into the contest. Looking like another slow start will cost us again today.

    Such a frustrating “nearly” season. Could have been top 4 best case scenario.

    A decent quater from Melbourne work rate wise and some in-roads made.

    I could have and probably should be another goal or two better though. If you're one of those people than gives us a pass and bemoans bad luck then more power to you. Salem's pass then Melksham wasn't quite able to mark, Trac's brilliant intercept followed up by kicking it 2 metres into the man in front of him, good teams don't do these things on a regular basis.

    You need to create your own luck in this game. Instead of Clarry sitting on King's back in defensive 50 and whinging about it you need to be first to the ball so some spud from the other team can make that mistake.

    Probably not skilled enough to mount a serious challenge today but might see some good stuff if we stick with the process and attack the middle.

    And what's he doing before the game to motivate his team to switch on? What's he doing during the week. We all love Max but he has been captain the entire time we've nosedived since 2023. "Trying his heart out" is for followers, not leaders.

    Viney being a difference maker when he’s all but shot as a player is an indictment on our midfield group. Especially Oliver.

    Same for Melk forward really. Although they’ve hardly had a chance.

    Gold Coast's pressure has been elite the whole game. Hopefully they have a bit of a drop off.

      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

      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.
