Been a while since he’s been suspended. Should go out with a bang and take Maynard out.

i will pay for flowers and choccies to b home deelivered to Dogyard's home.

Filth along with Cox and Dog Goey

awful lot

August 16Aug 16

Great we will now cop the wrath of Collingwood & McCrae will have this team fired up for a top 4 finish.

The feral fans will be out in force & I can't see how our forward line can kick a winning score.

If only these other teams could have won over the weekend & take the filths top 4 spot

We're not about to pick Laurie, Woewodin, Brown or Billings after ignoring them all year. What would we gain by giving them this one game anyway?

Yes, because we can definitely trust Gold Coast to get the job done....

Exactly. Port at home will want to send Ken & boak off with a win. Gold Coast will crumble

Despite how bad Port have been of late, that game does have hallmarks of a Port win.

That would then leave GC to have to beat Essendon in the final game of the year to make their first ever finals series, and knock out the loser of WB-Fremantle.

The pressure on them to not choke would be so, so high...

August 16Aug 16

I don't know why Sparrow gets a game? Been poor for 2 years now and only been dropped once. Why Turner didn't get Gunstan straight away is baffling. Howes refused to put body on Gunstan. van Rooyen doesn't lead enough. Until we can find a key forward that can kick goals and our midfield hackers can be replaced by players that can kick I'm talking about Petracca, Oliver and Viney we will go nowhere once again.

We are already mentally in Bali. It’s a shame as if we actually had a crack we could ruin the magpies season which would almost make this horrible year worthwhile.

Be realistic, we aren’t going to play a bunch of kids who have had all season to convince the selectors and haven’t done so when it’s most likely VFL wildcard round.
Melk will start and barring any issues Tommy Mc will too, farewell games for them both.
Someone in for Sharp, can’t say I care who, probably Spargo.

Caarryyyst surely we can do better than trescle slow Spargy?

You don’t think either will go around next year? I think melksham has been our best forward and one of only a few that can kick. Plugga has been decent too

I think it's a genuine 50:50 and we'll find out during the week. But if he decides its time to spend more time with his family I wouldn't be surprised at all. Go out on a high.

Could just be that we rested him as it's been a long year and the last thing he needs is a hammy that delays preseason, but I just have a feeling (no mail) that he might be ready to go out in good form

August 16Aug 16

My hope is May elbows Maynard into next week and we win by a point after the siren to ensure the filth don’t make the top 4.

That won’t happen of course. Only a sadist would go to this game so full respect to any of you who attend next week. I might live 3000km or so from Melbourne but even if I lived on Punt Road I’d find something else to do….

Stupid. This does not happen any more.

Mores the pity on occasion and individual

August 16Aug 16

If we play the same individuals as yesterday we will lose by 50 points if more, list of them have checked out for 2025.

Hawks had a reason to win. We did not.

Pies have a reason to win, we do not!

Dont even hope to get near them. Shiite though they are at the moment. Still we can dream

August 16Aug 16

Petracca won’t even want us to win. He supports the other side and will want his boys in top 4.

August 16Aug 16

I wouldn't change a thing,no point,get Cassy up and going as strong as it can and then we might have something to watch

None of them are AFL level players. Tried, dismissed.

soargo wont play so he can play the vfl finals, itll be basically unchanged, let casey have a proper crack at a flag, theyre red hot

melky farewell?? hes been our best forward he's absolutely worth another 12 months

if you want to make a change for sharp its either billings as a farewell afl game or lindsay if they havent shut him down for the year

God help us.

The way the collywobbles played against the crows compared to the way we played it will be a on sided game, AGAIN.

Looking forward to the end of the season.

Silly comment

Must be why Buckley never ever tried against us, as he supported us as a kid (and had lifelong ambitions to coach us to multiple premierships)

My mail is that Lindsay is out for the season with calf or ankle problem.

By all accounts Kolt had a good game with Casey so unless one more game for seniors effects his eligibility for VFL finals he would have earned a reprieve.

Rest kossie so he doesnt get a 3 week holiday for a stupid bump

If Lindsay is out for the season then I want Laurie in who also had a good game. Don't want to see Sparrow or Sharp rewarded with ordinary performances.

AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond
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.

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.

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.
