    Disappointing game overall - very little run and not the pressure we have seen them apply over the last month. Nevertheless, here are my votes:

    6: Bruce (He was one of the few who attacked the ball and attempted to run out of defence)

    5: Bartram (would have been the best but I was annoyed by him letting Harvey run around him and kick a goal)

    4: Dunn (just needs to be more consistent within a game)

    3: Grimes (for his 2nd half)

    2: Scully (great dash and commitment)

    1: Green (was a target but needed to be moved on the ball)

    Very disappointed in Joel MacDonald, Stefan Martin, Jared Rivers, Colin Sylvia

    6. Grimes (only player to give them run out of an overly tall backline)

    5. Green (presented well and helped get them back in the game up forward)

    4. Jamar (battled well against one of the 3 best ruckmen in the comp and probably took the points, just!)

    3. Scully (after the richmond game his best for the red and blue)

    2. Davey (very good in patches, didn't do enough however)

    1. Bennell (gave them a lot of run, impressive outing)

    Please explain.

    I thought he was just OK. Nothing very special, and needs to overcome his habit of doing nothing in the first half.

    He was very good in the third quarter when Melbourne got a run on.

    I didn't think he was that good. And playing one quarter out of four isn't good enough.

    Needs to lift to keep his spot over Wonaeamirri, Jetta and Maric. As well as Cheney, Strauss, McNamara, Bail, McKenzie, and the upcoming return of Morton and Jurrah.

    There's no reason to think Jetta is ahead of Bennell, Maric doesn't seem too likely to come in and Aussie will need to build a lot of fitness up before he'll be promoted.

    Cheney, Strauss, Bail, Mckenzie and Jurrah all play different positions to Bennell.

    Jetta played better last year as a forward than Bennell has over the last few weeks (on average).

    Aussie will take Bennell's spot in a canter if Bennell doesn't improve.

    I think it will be hard to justify keeping Bennell in the side when those other players return from injury (the later ones, not McKenzie and Bail) or get in decent form. Unless Bennell improves. Which is the point of my first post I guess. He's not giving enough over 4 quarters atm.

    • 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.
