YYYEEEESSSS!!!!

Some genuine marking ability and excitment.

Gee I'd like to see Jurrah, Sylvia and Bail all come into the forward line this week but happy to see Jurrah back!!

Like the comment from Bailey "Bailey said having Jurrah, Sylvia and Jack Watts all in the same side for the first time would make for a vastly improved Melbourne forward line.

“He [Watts] is a really important part of our forward line. Unfortunately this year Liam Jurrah hasn’t played with Jack Watts, he hasn’t played with Colin Sylvia in too many games either. That’s just because of injuries during the year,” he said.

“He does provide some excitement and it will be good to see those three blokes working well together in the forward line.

NOTE to the author Luke Holmesby - Casey actually beat Werribee!

    “Colin and LJ will certainly be under consideration. They’ve probably played enough football over the last couple of weeks to ensure that their bodies are ready to play,” Bailey told afl.com.au.

    I think this will answer any questions.

    Someone as good as Jurrah wont learn anything at Casey and the only reason he would play there is to regain match fitness after injury

    I was surprised a class player like Morton was omitted last week for the same reason

    Sylvia is in our best 22 IMO

    The sooner we get Bail back into the seniors the better

    IMO if you havent played senior football in your first 2 seasons at a club your basically a list clogger (injury aside)

    The next 2 players to step up will be Blease and Tapscott and i wouldnt be suprised they get a senior game before the seasons end

    I think Cale will learn from this, not so much from playing in the VFL, but from not playing in the AFL.

    If that makes sense.

    Not every player is dropped to the VFL to find form or to learn something. Sometimes it's because they aren't pulling their weight and the team is better off without them. This is a very straightforward kick up the backside for Cale to tell him he needs to work harder and his spot in the senior side is not guaranteed.

    • 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.
