    One free kick, 2 lead out marks to the fat side including one beautiful trade mark 2010 Aaron Davey delivery, 1 hard run to the pocket that was very good. But only 3 other possessions.

    So the answer to that question it was because he hardly did do anything besides the goals. If he missed 2 then it would've been a very average game. His good goal kicking made it a nice game.

    But I'd argue that big Tom Campbell from the dogs did more and got 1 or 2 goals, but he genuinely halved a bunch of contests that forced McDonald to defend very hard. And he brought the ball to ground beautifully. Watts can't do that and I doubt he ever will. That's why we need him up the ground and only a burst player inside 50 where his leading and accurate goal kicking is handy but not enough.

    Even Jack Gunston at Hawthorn who is a high class undersized small forward rotates to half forward and the wing because you can't just be a one trick lead-mark in space forward these days.

    Best line of the year - and not just on Demonland. Take a bow, Master.

    6.Grimes - IMO he aint a mid and is much better playing in the backline

    5. Frawley - was hard done by on a few occasions but just does the simple things as a defender

    4.Davey - some great pressure in the second half and a couple of chase downs like Flash of old

    3.Mckenzie - another solid tagging job

    2.N.Jones - another solid effort not his best but just does his all for the jumper

    1.Toumpas - the kid has developed through the season and the stint at Casey seems to have given him confidence to take the game on a little and draw a tackler before feeding off

    I agree, and neither is Jeremy Howe. But when you've got such a poor midfield, occasionally players like Grimes and Howe need to go there. If we can get a proper midfield, I'm convinced Grimes can settle on HBF and Howe on wing or HFF.

    A bit worrying looking at the bottom three rankings:

    3. Mark Jamar

    2. Rohan Bail Neville Jetta

    1. Sam Blease

    particularly as these include our No.1 All-Australian ruckman, a guy that played last Saturday (Jetta) and two blokes (Jamar and Blease) that Roos had question marks against but still included in his 'hypothetical' starting 22 in 2014.

    • 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.
