    Dean Kent to get some time in the gutz and kick 30 odd goals.

    Building on what he showed this year and with another full pre season under his belt I think we'll see something pretty special begin to emerge.

    Kent and Blease taking the game on and kicking goals sounds good to me.

    Jeremy Howe, with good guidance from Roos, and taking the 4th back, will kick 40

    Why do I cringe everytime I see the word "Breakout"?

    maybe your 16 and have bad complexion

    or ,you could have had hopes and dreams ruined in the last 6 years

    option A is a bad guess?

    Michael Evans

    Agree completely. And I see Taggert as being a regular but on the half forward line

  • Quote

    Half the bloody list, hopefully.

    In comparison to the last two seasons what is our definition of "breakout"? If some players suddenly start winning contested balls, breaking away at speed and spotting up a forward lace out. That would be breakout. So it could be half the side! If we manage to set up correctly and consistently execute the point kick outs to our advantage that would be breakout to me as well.

  • Quote

    N.Jones to step up another level, Frawley to revisit AA form, Clark to play 22 games.

    I agree on Watts, Blease, Jetta and Evans

    And just to feel like we have more than one midfielder.

    Mono your level of support for Colin is truely amazing

    This would make it his 11th "potential" break out year of his career wouldnt it?

    If he stays I just hope he gets in plays some regular consistent footy to justify all the support you guys have given him over his long career. Good luck!

    Jake Spencer gets very little good press on Demonland. I rate him above Gawn at the moment. In fact, given his tackling, second efforts and mobility, I rate him as numero uno ruckman. I'm predicting a breakout year for Spencil.

    I nominate this for the worst thread title in history. It combines my two most hated qualities in a thread: unfounded optimism and unimaginative cliches.

    Now, Now Fowl! You’re starting to sound like Moonshadow and you are far more intelligent than him (well just about everyone is I suppose).

    A couple of points.

    1. Without going through the whole history of Dland , I’m sure there are worse threads than this – in fact I may have started some myself.
    2. As for unfounded optimism and unimaginative clichés – well this is the land of clichés. Ban clichés and you might as well close D’land – in fact close football.
    3. Finally, if you think it is [censored], don’t read it and let the rest of us dream.

    Sylvia has had a good couple of seasons. Defintely in our 3 most damaging players and does not deserve that bollocking he gets form many at Demonland.

    yeah but he was the No.2 draft pick.

    I suppose we can't read into that since we are so [censored] at recruiting!

    • 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.

    • 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.
