Especially if it's at the MCG. They only play there once all season.

That's amazing how that happens seeing as there are four teams whose home ground it is and another four or so who play some home games there.

 

If we lose to Brisbane next week on our home ground it will be an absolute disgrace and a worse loss than the essendon one. We should be able to beat that rabble by 10 goals.

they'll be looking to 'rebound' next week. we seem to get that a lot.

Geez the lions are copping a pasting. Drag there confidence even lower so they are flat next week.

The tigs are up by 5 points at 1/2 time and the fans are getting excited. We all know the swans will roll over them after 1/2 time and deflate them. By the way I just came home from work and that was around 8 and a tigs fan in a jumper and hat was on my train. Not sure if he was coming home from the game or not. 

Fox had a great graphic last week which showed how Richmond tend to stay in games until about half way through Q3 then completely fall apart. Their scoreworms from multiple games this year all painted the same picture.

I'd bet anything Richmond lose this, and by no narrow margin.

We've got to worry about the dogs first, then shift our attention to the Lions after, hey?

 

I want to see Sydney lose purely because I don't want the teams above us continually winning, but... I also want Richmond to lose. All the time. It's just amazing.

Not a great fan of the Swanettes either...

Me either, but it's Richmond.  My hatred for them is higher than that of the Swans.

Truly the only positive outcome at this point is a draw.

Or there's a power outage and they have to call the game a no contest so nobody gets any points

Just as an aside, Luke Parker has royally screwed my Supercoach team tonight.  I was ranked 93... and his rubbish performance, and my dumb decision to make him captain, will finish off my season.  Not happy Jan!

Just now, DemonAndrew said:

impressive, wiseblood.

 

swans-tigers is good to watch, and that's all that matters.

I was ranked 10th last week.  Thought I was going okay.  All gone to pot now!

Hopefully their rebound is amazing as Gold Coast's was.

Or Richmond's, or Collingwood's.

That's three wins, IMO, against sides on the "rebound".

Notwithstanding what happens tomorrow, no excuses next week.


Just now, DemonAndrew said:

swans have not been that impressive tonight.

 

they've done 'enough'. sort of like the hawks earlier today.

Struggled to beat Brisbane a fortnight ago, too, plus couldn't shake Essendon in the first half last week.

Yet, unfortunately, despite playing in close games, Hawthorn is 6-2 and Sydney could well be 7-1 in 10 minutes.

It's an even competition but not yet even enough I don't think.

 

The Richmond game has been terribly over-umpired by paying far too many soft free kicks.

The result is they are missing other soft free kicks and immediately becoming far too inconsistent.

  • 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

  • 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.
