Changes for Round 3

Featured Replies

Out: Viney, Frost

In: Michie, JKH

Dawes gives Jamar a rest.

Id go the other way but can't see Dawes or Frost getting dropped.
 

Total no brainer that change. Shouldn't have been dropped and last week it showed when we had zero run.

 

Jkh in

Thats all

Would've liked to see Michie come in given what we will miss with Viney's absence, but I don't mind it. Throws it over to the guys playing at Casey to put in another solid week and really earn their spot.


Are we still top heavy? Adelaide are a great running team , hmmm

If one zippy but not lighting half forward flanker is responsible for your run then you are screwed. Watts, Kent and Garlett are all quicker than JKH anyway! We're still going to have the 3 big men set up so JKH isn't going to be some panacea for our run.

 

Like this from Roos. Yes we got beaten horribly in the second half but he is giving the players a chance to atone for themselves instead of the typical kneejerk reaction many here call for and that we would commonly see in the pre-Roos era.

Should they underperform two weeks in a row then expect some changes the following week but somehow i do not believe we will be as bad again. Doesn't mean we will win, just a far better performance across the board.


Dawes is lucky to be there IMO. I know it was his first game of the year but he completely stunk it up. Toumpas was dropped for less.

big men always get the benefit of the doubt and are offered more patience and time to develop. just the law of the land.

If we had a key forward the quality of Bernie Vince ready to come back in to the side they'd get a game.

Roos is going to back Dawes in for a while because until someone else (Pedersen, Gawn, Frost, Fitzpatrick, Watts whoever) shows they are a legitimate 2nd marking and contesting option it's crazy to leave Hogan one out. It might've worked against a rubbish Gold Coast team but that's not proof it's a good long term plan.

I'd personally prefer Pedersen to Dawes at the moment. Better hands, better kick, more versatile. He has VFL form behind him too.

Rumours that jones might not play?

source is just comments on fb - people posting they have heard he may not play.

[censored], he trained really well apparently.

thats good then. just thought id see if there was any substance

Dawes is a premiership player who performed exceptionally well in that Grand Final!

Toumpas is???

He has VFL form behind him too.

Judging by recent reports, that's about the only place his current VFL form is.


in the training thread... he didnt take part in some stuff at the start, but was in all the stuff at the end of training.

really hope hes ok...

if we roll Adelaide without Jones and Viney we are officially back in town

Not only back in town but own the whole damn Monopoly board including all houses and multiplexing Mayfair and Park Lane!!!

 

we're screwed, already short of inside pressure & tackling, & we replace Viney with JKH, so our game plan is to Beat Tex & Co in a shootout, we will be back page news this Sunday

You must have missed the bit where Viney has a broken leg and is out for 426.

Snap!

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
