People aren't going to like this, but Petracca reminds me a lot of Jimmy Toumpas. A rich man's Toumpas. Slow but with good disposal.

Hunt looks as out of his depth as i've seen from an AFL football in years. Unfortunately. 

 

If this is at the MCG,as it should be,we win easily. Absolute joke. Why is the roof closed? AFL may as well give the four points to the Saints.


petracca big head not playing team footy

For the love of God, drop this zone defence [censored] and go with something unconventional like... I don't know... STICKING OUR BEST DEFENDER ONTO RIEWOLDT LIKE [censored] GLUE!

Why is Nev Jetta manning Nick Reiwoldt up!!

FFS sort ya stupid zone up Jade Rawlings!

EXACTLY. Salem has been on him too... Whist in charge of this defensive rabble? We know they can defend, I suspect we are being out coached.

 

We are playing like fIogs. Trying to handball our way through all the traffic, absolutely getting smashed on the outside. Tmac is gettinga hiding of Roo, i dont care about the Zone, FOOKIN PLAY SOME FOOKER ON REIWOLDT FFS!!!!!


[censored] hell, first Boomer Harvey and now Riewoldt. These guys could literally be 70 years old and still carve us up. Why isn't anyone playing near Riewoldt?

Half time of his first game (with double digit disposals no less) and Petracca has already been called the new Toumpas. Don't ever change Demonland.

Geezus, you have gone a bit early there havent you?

I waited a whole half of footy! That's longer than most Melbourne supporters wait for.

Reiwoldt too much latitude. No one wants to go near him. Has he had a contested possession? 

Bugg needs to be dropped, his handballing is hot potato stuff just get it away from me. CP5 very underwhelming on debut, back to Casey to learn how to pick up the ball and take the first option. Jack Watts of old is back. We need Oliver back

Its stupid and i hate it. Several times i have seen Jetta manning Reiwoldt.. WTF


Dunn and McDonald need a kick up the arse, pathetic defensive effort. I mean we also went in with two kids and they're struggling down back with the pressure. 

Midfield is getting a smashing and as soon as Saints have the ball we are 10 meters behind. 

It is looking ominous. I can see us getting belted unless we start dominating the clearances again. 

Hogan is a bit alright tho. 

Maybe that was our bad quarter....here's hoping.

Wagner, Hunt, Lamumba and Harmes - stop fumbling.

Please put a player on Reiwoldt.

Petracca, Vince, Tyson - handball at first option.

Please put a player on Reiwoldt.

Watts and Pedo - you are allowed to mark when the ball hits your hands.

Please put a player on Reiwoldt.

You dont have to stand still at a ball up, you are allowed to move.

PLEASE PUT A PLAYER ON REIWOLDT.

Mate im usually the first person on here to say how rubbish we are, but we are only 2 goals down at half time. 2 down when playing rubbish. We can still win this if we respond after the break.

Riewoldt has just worked out that we're playing zone defence, so he just puts himself in the "zone" of Jetta, Salem or Jones. Pretty easy to figure it out, but when they figure it out, we need to adjust. And we haven't.

And don't get me started about playing someone loose in defence.

This is our Achilles heel - when an oppo coach works out how to stifle our game, we don't seem to be able to respond, in the box or on the field.

Calling Petracca a rich man's Toumpas is not like calling him Cale Morton. Toumpas is still getting games. I'm comparing the two based on their playing style. Remember Jack Viney's first game? He looked amazing. Petracca simply looks promising.

A bit of history on me. I was a Toumpas defender right up until his trade. I still think he'll make a good footballer. Petracca's better than Toumpas already.

Demonland never change indeed!

 

Getting destroyed by Riewoldt one one good leg for the 2nd year in a row.

Someone smash him into the turf for [censored] sake

I felt this way during the Essendon game, but the good quarter never came. Mark my words, this is a repeat performance of that atrocity.

Need some serious scrutiny here over selection if players are this flat after a 5.5 day break; Blind Freddy could've seen Hunt/Wagner being exhausted, and add a debutant in Petracca to that combination and it's seriously lethal... in a bad way. Oliver would've been bloody handy after his 11 day break.

  • 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.

  • 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

    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.
