I want us to beat the Handbaggers

Comrades.

We can worry about permutations and draft choices - the wind blows where it wills.

I just want us to beat the Handbaggers down at Handbagger Stadium - especially if those big Zeppelins in the Geelong Cheer squad are in attendance.

It is as simple as that. I want us to do it especially for Slaphead Chapman and Cameron Ling, the Toxic Avenger.

And I want to hear the sooking afterwards.

    If it's not a windy day we'll have them on toast.

    About as meaningless as R22 in 2007.

    We do that and we have wasted the pain of 2008/2009.

    I hate to say it, but you're spot on!

    Yep. Smash 'em. Make 'em doubt themselves. Cause them to choke another flag. Go Dees.

    Comrade there is a much wider malaise than the pain of the last couple of years - and that is our mental softness.

    As a supporter since 71 and a member since 82, I have seen it year after year, decade after decade.

    Address that in a sustained fashion, and everything else will be sorted out eventually.

    While I would dearly love to get 1 and 2, to my mind we got the priority pick last year with Watts AND Jurrahcane.

    This discussion is a bit pointless. Whatever opinions the two of us may hold, it will make jack-all difference to where we finish at the end of the year.

    Additionally, my hatred of the Handbaggers over-rides all other rational considerations.

    Cheers - Biffinator

    If we beat the cats, by then I will have completely lost faith in getting Scully, but I can tell you this, I will celebrate like we were never going to get a PP...

    Beating them over there? It doesn't get a whole lot better, IMO.

    Then we could come out in round 22 and snatch another over the Saints, and people will be talking about us positively again. Would be a HUGE reward for players like Moloney, Bruce, Green, Whelan, Davey who have earned a LOT of respect from LFC supporters, and deserve respect from opposition supporters too.

    • 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.
