Being competitive for the whole match will win us a lot of respect - especially since we are playing at their ground. I haven't seen the odds yet however, I reckon we will be around the $8.00 mark to win.

    Cats havent lost at home since 07.

    Am I correct in saying that the DEES beat them by 1 point that year? Or was it the year b4?

    We hadn't won their in 13 years or something silly.

    Sorry, it was Port R22. Carry on.

    On Tuesday, Geelong were $1.05, Melbourne $10.00. *TAB Sportsbet.

    it was 2005 when we beat them there, that was after we had lost the last seven rounds in a row, we won from 25 points down in the start of the 4th, the next week we did the same v the dogs to win from around 25 points in the 4th, then we beat the dons to make finals, as i remember all the dogs where watching the game hoping that the dons would beat as they all had a cry when we won, that was the most amazing time being a dees supported, in 2005 at one stage we where 9 wins 3 loss and second on ladder, we lost the next seven in a row, then we went to mission impossible in round 20, v the cats and won, we had to win the last three games of that year to make the finals, and we did we should never have won those games v the cats and dogs both games we where dead a buried until the last quarter heroics

    It is a "Super Challenge"

    yes and we'll have to be "super competetive"

    But mainly "just fuggin get it inside forward 50"

    I hope we play at our best, no, I hope we play the best we've ever played.

    That way we might only lose by 10 goals.

    All I'm realistically looking for on Saturday is a good showing from our backline, and for our forwards to convert every opportunity they gets, because I know our midfield is going to get smashed to pieces.

    Geelong Advertiser Front PAge.

    From another thread but we can only hope that Geelong itself have put the white flag goggles on.

    The game down there wont be easy but Sculgove isn't our team anymore.

    True they and others have brought a new confidence but last week showed they are part of a much improved unit across the ground.

    Hopefully the Cats wander into the white flag trap and turn up for an "easyWin" whilst we bring our A game.

    Nothing would please me more than to see another defeated or almost defeated top team saying "we didn't play well today" underestimating what our group can do.

    Lets see which flag is flying at the end of the day, I hope its grand.

    • 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.
