After todays game I think that unless some serious list management is employed we are capable of winning another 3 games let alone 2.

    Freo vs Brisbane tonight.

    The game is in Perth, so lets hope Freo can produce an upset.

    The 2 W.A. sides will not win another game this year apart from the derby. It's a disgrace The Coke Eagles won a flag 3 years ago!!

    Freo is a dead set certainity. Swans, North and Tigers are all 50-50 IMO.

    Three games at 50% chance to me says we will win at least one.

    Goodes will tear us up next week i think so we won't beat the swans. North have been close a number of weeks just havent got over the line. The tigers i think will be keen to beat us after last time. And hopefully the media really get stuck into freo before our game so they come put pumped!!!

    Hopefully we beat the saints for there first loss of the year!!!

    3Q Time Freo 6.5.41 BL 7.7.49.

    Maybe they're not tanking????

    Said it before and I'll say it again - the Pies fall apart completely under pressure. 2nd qtr against us, last qtr against Dogs, 3rd qtr against Hawks. The most overrated team in the comp. To go out in straight sets in the finals.

    beating port is the game that cost us the priority pick. I hope every remembers the game because it royally screwed up our grand plans of a complete development. Now it looks like we could end up with pick 3 or 4 as our only pick.

    No Sandi, Pav, Hill, Palmer.

    No chance.

    Add Headland. How many will be back for our game with them?

    Freak, Freak, Freak.

    Let me hazard a guess and say that you're 'posting rate' diminished over the past two weeks?

    Hopefully, the mods can check on that...

    And it was PA and their 'leaders' that screwed up. They should have beaten us and they didn't. They were awful.

    But you are probably right though...

    That Richmond game isn't going to be fun one for me to go to...

    Tigers blow a 40 point lead and have a draw with the Kangas.

    What does this mean for PP? is 18 Premiership points too much? Or is it 20 Premiership points that is too much?

    EDIT:

    Conflicting reports: On the AFL website it seems to say that fewer than 5 wins is required.

    http://www.afl.com.au/about/tabid/13514/default.aspx

    An article I found said this though:

    "Five teams are qualified for the priority pick awarded to those that win no more than four games -- more precisely, 16 premiership points."

    found here: http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/sport/afl...2-19742,00.html

    I can't seem to find any hard and fsat rule to go by.

    Best possible result then.

    I thought so too.

    But I am thinking a little differently now.

    If Richmond won then it might put their young guys on a role with some belief for the MFC games.

    I believe after beating us in Rd 1 or 2 this year, NM feel they have the wood on us and would believe they could win anyway.

    At 18 points, NM have lost the 2nd PP and Crocker would love a win to press for the coaching FT. He is probably realistic to realise that he is a long shot.

    At 14 points, Richmond might be reluctant at this point to push for another win.

    Interesting times

    The only chance Freo is of another win is against PA at Subi, and Port will have to rock up as mentally unprepared as they did against us.

    Whatever happens, we won't get another spoon. So the season's a success?

    NM will finish on 5 and a half wins, WCE on 6/7 wins, Rich on 4 and a half wins, Melbourne on 4 wins, and Freo on 3/4 wins with an awful percentage.

    That takes into account the Tigers beating us, but they way they played that second half - jeez...

    I am not so sure WCE will win another game this year! Freo have the wood on them of late I think and I have no doubt the eagles will gladly accept another loss to their arch rivals if it takes them 1 step closer to a PP at year`s end!

    • 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.
