THE LAST TIME THEY MET

Featured Replies

Both clubs have gone through tough times since their meeting in mid July but I can assure you that Sam Blease won't get dropped for this one:

MELBOURNE

Backs James Strauss James Frawley Daniel Nicholson

Half backs Colin Garland Jared Rivers Nathan Jones

Centreline Jack Trengove Colin Sylvia Tom Scully

Half forwards Ricky Petterd Liam Jurrah Cale Morton

Forwards Brad Green Jack Watts Stefan Martin

Followers Mark Jamar Brent Moloney Jordie McKenzie

Interchange Jordan Gysberts Jeremy Howe Addam Maric Luke Tapscott

Emergencies Clint Bartram Matthew Bate Max Gawn

In Addam Maric Luke Tapscott

Out Jamie Bennell Sam Blease (both omitted)

PORT ADELAIDE

Backs Tom Logan Jackson Trengove Cameron O'Shea

Half backs Nick Salter Troy Chaplin Hamish Hartlett

Centreline Ben Jacobs Travis Boak Kane Cornes

Half forwards David Rodan Jay Schulz Brett Ebert

Forwards Danyle Pearce Chad Cornes Robbie Gray

Followers Matthew Lobbe Domenic Cassisi Matt Thomas

Interchange Mitch Banner Hitchcock Michael Pettigrew Steven Salopek

Emergencies Matthew Broadbent Daniel Stewart Jacob Surjan

In Michael Pettigrew Steven Salopek

Out Matthew Broadbent Daniel Stewart (both omitted)

 

I expect our squad for this week to be weaker than the one that went to Darwin with at least James Strauss, Colin Sylvia, Ricky Petterd, Liam Jurrah and Jordan Gysberts Jeremy out injured and Addam Maric and Daniel Nicholson possibly at Casey.

Port might be strengthened a little with Butcher in form but they have probably lost the two Cornes boys. From memory, Chad was probably their best.

This game is massive for us here in Adelaide... Port will be pumped for this due to the fact it is the first of many future games at Radelaide Oval (beautiful ground) so we will need to come out firing to silence the Ferals on the hill...

But Jack Trengove loves this ground ;) Let's smash these pricks and show John the Butcher exactly what he could be part of...

 

I have a feeling Port will get up. They played well against Essendon and will want to avoid the spoon at all costs. Not to mention we are missing quite a few good players, as mentioned by Sid above. Would love to end the year on a win though, so I will be watching and cheering the guys on come Sunday afternoon.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

    Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

  • 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.
