The Scorps never gave in and a 29 point loss in the circumstances is a damn good result. They have two weeks to regroup and will have to beat Williamstown (home) and Box Hill (away) to claim a top four spot.

    This season, rookies don't need to be elevated for a long term injury after round 11, so we're free to play him if we wish...

    No, each club is able to elevate one single rookie to the senior list without having to place a listed player on the Long Term Injury list.

    In the end it was a fine effort from the Scorpions who had a lot of inexperienced players including two first gamers. Give them PJ, Robbo and Danny Hughes who all were late omissions and they would have been a rough chance.

    Didn't see the game today, any reasons given for the late withdrawals?

    A couple not coming up for MFC tomorrow!?

    I HOPE HUGHES GETS A GAME!

    Did Casey have ANY MFC players today other than Zomer? Wheatley come up from ressies? List is starting to look really thin for fit players...

    Unless one of PJ and Robbo were injured today it sounds like one late withdrawal tomorrow and one of them in and the other emergency.

    I don't think Hughes is qualified to play unless he is capable of being uplifted to the senior list. McKenzie was uplifted a couple of weeks ago.

    I think maybe Martin might come out, he's had a few niggles here and there recently.

    On Hughes, there's been a lot of conjecture about his eligibility to play. We have Valenti, Spencer and McKenzie elevated for LTI's in Garland, Meesen, and Blease earlier this year. Aussie, Green and a number of others could also be placed on the LTI list at any time you'd think?

    And with the AFL's new rule allowing teams to nominate one rookie to the senior list for the 2nd half of the year, even without an LTI, you'd think Hughes would be eligible for a game?

    I've been under the impression, that since round 11, Hughes would be available for selection if need be, with the club having more than enough player injuries that could be regarded as 'long term' and placed on that list.

    We're at the the bottom of the barrell now, so to speak, with almost NO fit players left. Hughes should be available.

    Unless of course it in a financial issue, with the club unable to raise his salary?

    Nonetheless, i believe Hughes deserves a game given his good form over the year, the fact that he's been on the rookie list for 3 of 4 seasons, he needs an opportunity to show his stuff at top level, we've got no players left, and because we're in a list management situation.

    He deserves at least one game for the red & blue! (Being an MFC supporter as a kid, if he doesn't make it, he'll at least have a story for the grankids in future ;))...

    Made the trek out there. That Feery is the dirtiest player I have seen in a very long time. Off the ball rubbish all the time.

    Danny Hughes copped a corkie last week and was probably given the week's break to get it right.

    There's a fair chance however, that one or both of PJ or Robbo will line up against the Roos today.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • 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.
