Green kicks a soccer goal - Dees lead!!

11.16 82 v 11.18 84

 

3 minutes to go - hard to watch

 

Jurrah saves us by rushing a point

11.17 83 v 11.18 84


2 minute - one point - in their forward line

We really need to clear it out of there!!

this is agony!!!!

 

They kicked a behind!!

11.17 84 v 11.18 84

It's a draw!!!

11.18 84 v 11.18 84


Proud of the boys for the way they fought back!! Shame about the result, but better than a loss at this point in the season.

Luke Tapscott would have to get the rising star nomination for this week

Can't argue with that.. and I would think Bennell came close to best on ground; he had a great game.


Probably waited on the sub in case of injury, would be awful to sub then play a man down.. Good game, Jamar missed a sitter tho

Go Dees, good result really

Why wasn't Petterd subbed on at the start of the 3rd?

Tapscott, wow. His bump on shaw...

Forgive my ignorance, but why didn't Petterd start. And Tappy, will there be any doubters now, I can't imagine so.

So Hollow

Can't argue with that.. and I would think Bennell came close to best on ground; he had a great game.

Maybe a few ahead of him

But possibly a Rising-Star for Tappy?

Well a sub is primarily there for injury substitution, so unlikely to ever be subbed before 3/4q time for form reasons

Also if one knew Petterd would play that well maybe he should have been on the bench or in the 18 instead

Whilst he got better as the game got older, Jack Grimes still needs to seriously work on his disposal by foot. Until such time that he does improve in this area, he can't be seen as an elite player of the comp. When he does address this issue, then the sky's the limit. But geez he can butcher the ball at times.

We are lucky to walk away with 2 points today. You simply cannot play 1.5 quarters and expect to win (even though we almost did).

Tricky Ricky dominated when he got on, maybe a little too late


Fair point on Petterd although I do feel he should have started.

Tapscott for a debut game was fantastic. Let's hope he can be consistent this season!

I'll take the draw because we certainly didn't deserve to win after only playing a quarter of decent footy!

Hawks next week will be a massive game and a chance to step up and have a 4 quarter crack.

Frawley likely?

Maybe a few ahead of him

...

This is a case of stats not telling the whole story. What Bennell did with the ball when he had it, set us up for many good possessions. Moloney has high stats, but really he only provided a lot of value in the last quarter... he and Davey went missing for much of the first half of the game. Anyway, that was just my observation and of course I don't expect everyone to see it the way I did.

Absolutely agree DD. Love the bloke, but he was very costly, especially early on. We can see the potential, just want to see it come to fruition.

 

Very disappointed in just getting 2 points

4 points was there for the taking all last quarter (heaps of chances)

We must learn to win those games

For those who say we didn't deserve 4 points for 1.5 quarters of football. Rubbish, football is about taking your opportunities and winning (not getting "fair" results). We need to tighten up and learn to win in a flourish

Only good thing was we did'nt start the season with a loss. Lets hope they learn something from this game

What was dissapointing about today was our disposal and decision making, they were terrible, we had a FF in Watts who spoilt more than he attempted to mark cos we would kick to him in 2 on 1 contests or would kick it so bad that we would favour the Sydney players.

I think we stole 2 points today.

    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.
