Weird. Am I on the right site?

 

he is one bloke that gold coast will look at! after todays effort must hold onto him!

well done colin!

great game by col ran hard all day


Best player at the club at the moment.

Aaron Davey called to say hi... and he was at Brad Green's house at the time. Having a beer with Beamer.

Wrong. Jack Watts is the best player at the club. You don't hype up a player like that, before he debuts, without claiming him to be the best at the club.

/sarcasm.

congrats to col, really deserves the praise, he has shown a lot in recent works with his efforts, and hope he can maintain this quality of performance or better in the future.


Terrific game from him, and the sort of display we have all be waiting for.

The key is for him to just keep going and find that consistency.

I sincerely hope that he has finally turned the corner, because we sure can use his talent!

He certainly has a lot of talent. Surest hands ever, and is becoming one of those players who, when in possession, i am confident will do the right thing and something good will come of it. Good on him! Second time in three weeks that he has carried the rest of the team.

He can seriously play. So strong overhead for somebody his size. But what struck me most was his pace and chasing, I thought he was a bit of a plodder but he can run. Great game Col

Outstanding game from Col.

His past month has been the sort of football that he should be playing. Never mind about winning or losing - if we can see a breakout year from Col, some experience for the likes of Watts, Grimes, Jurrah, Maric etc. , then I'll be happy.

Is climbing the B & F ladder awfully quickly is Col.


Is clearly in Career best form, its a credit to him. IMO he would be in All Aust form at the moment, lets hope he keeps it up for the rest of the year. Just needs some mates now to follow his lead.

On today's effort all three should be hanging their heads in embarrassment today.

Sylvia's last two efforts at the G have been awesome individual efforts that other more fancied players should be watching a replay of.

Moloney wasn't bad today, he and Sylvia were the only players who would kick the ball and create opportunities for the forwards.

Beamer was respectable today. On a type of day when the handball should be outlawed, his style of play actually helped us get on the scoreboard. He didn't put in 4 quarters though. Green was OK and made a target early on.

Hang on 'Geddy Lee', not quite all...

for me today.... Sylvia was great. Also thought Davey and Grimes good. Watts ok for his debut game....

If Sylvia's last month is a true indication of the rest of his career, then it's been well worth the wait.

Reminds me of the story of the famous story of the extraordinary trumpet player Wynton Marsalis.

Wynton's trumpet teacher was perplexed at how slow Wynton learned compared to the rest of the students. Young Wynton would take longer to learn things, and spent an alarming amount of time practicing basic elements, again and again.

As time went buy, the rest of the students plateaued, and little Wynton slowly but steadily closed the gap between him and the rest of the players. His rock-solid fundamentals help him form an incredible basis for tone, technique and technicality.

Wynton's improvement was much slower, his gradient much lower, but eventually he overtook the other students and kept going and going to become the greatest. And no-one remembers the names of any of the other trumpet players.

Beautifull, lets hope so.

How much longer is he banned for anyway? The site becomes x10 less entertaining without him here.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • 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.
