Richmond has one game plan at the moment kick long to Riewoldt while

it's working in the short term it's only a stop gap. If Riewoldt's form goes off,

clog their back line, pressure the ball carier the tiges loose everytime. While it's

working short term not going to work forever.

    Which is who?

    I see no one at Melbourne that could kick 10 goals in a game now or in the next few years.

    Have a look at Richmonds list. They have Deledio, Foley, Cousins, Cotchin and Martin in the midfield who win the clearences and kick straight to Riewoldt who played against a travelling West Coast without Glass.

    Green, Jurrah, Sylvia and Pettard all could have kicked ten in the same conditions and delivery

    Apparently it came down to a choice between Knights and Hardwick.

    Hardwick said he would need a complete rebuild while Knights said he could deliver a premiership without massive list changes. I think Hardwick was right.

    Yeah I remembered that was the reason for Knights appointment and made the point in another thread. Sounds like Hardwick was more honest in his interpretation of Essendon's list at the time while Knight said what the selection committee wanted to hear. It'll be interesting to see how Hardwick's Tigers fare in comparison to Essendon under Knights over the next couple years.

    Last time i checked Darwin was not in Victoria.

    So going by that theory when was the last time we won a game, ( forget the last time we won a game.)

    Wow.

    Can't you tell we don't have a game this week, you only have to look at some of the threads/topics being started, delistings etc and now this, I for one if I was an AFL coach in waiting would not have gone near either of the Richmond or Melbourne jobs, Hardwick isn't exactly working with a team without experience (games wise) everybody seems to forget this......

    and as for the Darwin game, if you weren't there (and I was) you will have no idea of the conditions the players played under to achieve an excellent victory.

    Can't we have a thread with gee I am looking forward to the next 9 or 10 rounds and this is why

    • 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.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
