Lot of people calling him to be dropped throughout the week.

Just wondering what did you think of his game today?

 

He was Great, Wow today was a great day :D so many positives.

Who the hell was saying that?!?

Eagles were going to pick him at #36 last year and were [censored] when we did. It was fun parading him around in front of them.

 

Pleasing thing today was the games of our young guys

Bennell - was quick and clean with his hands...excellent

Grimes - 22 disposals

Maric - 2 goals, 100% disposal efficiency after last week

Morton - 36 disposals

Certainly shaping up as a great player.

I was one who thought he may have needed a rest (not because I thought he was bad, just young), very glad to be proven wrong and probably have been given faith in young players playing long streaks of matches.


Superb. Bennell showed yet again today that (only in his 1st season) that he will be a great player for the club. Not only did he win the ball, his kicking under pressure and the ability to have the confidence to take players on was very good. With a few more pre-season under his belt in the years to come he will be a vital player if we want to achieve success.

Another one i think you can add to that is Petterd.

Didn't have a massive influence on the game today, but i just enjoy the way he seems to love a big moment, and calmly slots through goals that should be kicked at crucial times, like he did against the Tigers.

Franky Grimes, I love you.

 

Bennell certainly has a great deal of natural talent. Displays poise and awareness well beyond his , well, beyond his seven games to date. Also has tremendous balance and ability to win the ball.

Could become anything.

No doubt as a young player there will be times this season that he may go missing. But he hasn't yet. I think he's shown something in each game he's played.

Cannot help but be impressed.

Franky Grimes, I love you.

Your men crushes are cursed!

If Grimesy gets injured again I'm hunting you down and killing you. :angry: :lol:


LOL.

All those kids were great today and I feel good due tot he fact they will be the corner stone of our next successful period.

This kid flows like warm honey......... Smooth over the ground, and his kicking action is almost faultless. Hard to believe he is just a pup with half a dozen games under his belt. When he has around 50 games experience, and has gained the confidence of being a member of a side who regularly wins game ( which by that stage Melbourne WILL do), he may well turn out to be a star.


Grimes butchered a few kicks today but I had to keep reminding myself that it is only his second game.

I just love the look of Bennell, he really takes the game on. When Buckley is fit these two will be am explosive combination.

Loved him, Every time he as near the ball i was thinking give to jamie.

Yes i'll admit I was one of them, but that was only because of managing him throughout a long first year. On his form today you wouldn't drop him. Still think they should be careful with him however. He will be a gun this guy!

Massive game by the young bloke.....

Lifted in front of his home state....

Stuck it up those Eagles....

Go you good thing BeanHead!!

that much of a suprise? is a product of the WA system, so has been training and playing with men for a year or two already

its just nice to have someone with pace coming out of the backline, that can hit someone 40m away on the [censored], instead of going 30m in the air, and going down the other teams throat (coughwardbuckleybellcough)

would love for him to be able to progress through to the midfield as well, a clearance specialist ala s.burgoyne :D

getting either mr wona or mr jetta back in the team would be nice too, extra bit of magic on the flank for benny to kick to

Excellent summary E'stein.

 

He will be fantastic in our future premiership side at only 18, he is showing class now. He may not get a NAB nomination but he will be reliable every week.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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.
