Collingwood has said it will use its entire list of players in the NAB Cup. That is clearly an admission that winning is not the be all and end all. I await the 6 month AFL investigation or an AFL statement that it is fine to do that and that the MFC Inquisition is over without any charges being laid.

    No reason this shouldn't be used if this ends up in court, just makes the grey area with this more and more obvious.

    List management is allowed.

    Fumbling in the last 3 minutes is not,

    Neither is NOT playing a 17yo Jack Watts more in his first year

    Neither is putting Matthew Bate in the midfield, Miller in the fwd line or PJohnston in defence or even have Cale Morton obliterate Adam Goodes as a tagger.

    Unlike Paul Roos before him, Buckley will not claim he was joking.

    He doesn't have to because the AFL won't take on a power house like Collingwood and the AFL let's Sydney clubs do as they wish.

    Interesting question for the AGM on wednesday could be to ask how much have we budgeted for or put aside to fight the Tanking case in Court, if it becomes necessary.

    Sure the answer would be that it is a matter that won't be discussed at the AGM.

    Then again with a bit of luck, it could be a redundant question by wednesday evening.

    • 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.
