    I know that VFL is far less intense than AFL but what does it say when Oliver finishes a game off so strongly a week after given a rest from the AFL?

    Are our selection policies too conservative or did the win over Richmond mandate that there be no more that one change notwithstanding we were coming off a six day break?

    The Saints made three changes to their losing team. In hindsight, you can mount a good argument that their inclusions tipped the balance in their favour.

    It's interesting WJ, but I think overall, most would have this year's selection policy as a huge win for the club. It's hard to crack the side, and hard to keep your spot. Nothing wrong with that. Roos rewards unheralded players with a game, and then sticks with them for at least two to make sure they have a decent chance. Expects more from senior players than from younger ones. And he's unwilling to change a winning side... those are all, really, the policies we want to see week in week out. What was it he used when he won the flag? 28 players or something?

    Post Tigers, I assumed some good performers would be down against a fast Saints side, at the dome where they play a certain brand. I didn't think it would be Hunt or Wagner though. Personally I reckon he made the correct choices at the selection table going in, and you can't fault him for not having a crystal ball. His gameday execution? Yes. Fire away. But selection has been a strength.

    I partially saw the ANB kick which concussed Brayshaw in the VFL goals package on the MFC website.

    Does anyone know if it was a direct kick to the back of the head or was their a slight deflection from the smother, having it go into the head?

    How was his defensive intensity? He's always interested me in how he can get and use the ball, even though he lacks a yard of pace, but has mostly looked like a passenger without the ball. 

    He played all but 15 minutes on the half back flank. Thought he was probably Casey's best. Very attacking but also saved at least 2 goals on the last line. Must admit one of these probably should have been a free to the bomber player but it wasn't paid. 

    Straight kick into his bonce. Dropped like a stone. Lucky it wasn't CP5 kicking it because it would have taken his head off.

    Viv has been our most consistent performer at Casey so far this year and surely must be due a recall. Reward for effort. Problem is I'm not sure that Roos rates him.

    He's in.

    Well done skid! Hopefully he puts on a good performance and keeps his spot.

    • 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.
