Single best quarter of the year so far.

Inclined to agree.

Really want to go and quote all the wrist slashing, no idea posts from the first quarter. Good improvement boys

Think you'll find at the time, they were spot on the money.

We obviously reset well, because that was a smashing quarter. Just cut them up.

But we were awful for large parts of the first.

If Dawes can't hit a handball target from < 5 metres, can someone please tell me what use he is. Can't mark, can't kick, can't handpass.

Has done some great work since!

Just get the ball in his hands

Not perfect, still error riddled, but the ball movement was far more decisive that quarter. If we can tidy up our ball use and decision making we'll blast them away.

Quote away, they had plenty of idea, we played terribly as you noted on the improved second qtr.

F me Wagner is having a mare!! 

 

Cut his hair! Bad timing

Yeah, Truck looks amazing. A big game player. How was that goal?! So exciting.

Jones and Vince are good players, but they both try to do to much with the ball.

Dinky kicks, spears to high or to low, snaps over the man on the mark without moving away far enough for kicking.


Pies selections are baffling. They went in too tall. That's ultimately where we're winning.

"Open up another pop up" after Gawny's last goal. First time I have laughed at a Brian Taylor comment!

Probably the cleanest quarter of footy we have played for a while. Loving Trengove's decision making and clean hands

Kent having his best game in a while too. Not so much for his pressure acts but presenting really well to link up at half forward for us

Mate, there is a difference between posts stating we haven't started well, as opposed to "Jones is a bit grader amd we need to trade our leadership group out" or "we haven't improved at all" 

While we field young and inexperienced teams, We will have great games and inconsistent quarters, we will have bad games with great quarters. Let's hope our inconsistent quarter is done, and the rest of the game we continue to play great. 

The Auskick umpires are competent. Makes a change.

Correct. I doubt Roosy was blowing them kisses at the quarter time huddle. 

A much better second quarter. 

I wish Nichols and long and painful bout of gastro. The man is a fool. 

Tom Bugg kept Sidebottom to 1 disposal that qtr. Amazing stuff.

Gawn was HUUGGGEE!

Fair enough.

Although from memory, the only one who said we haven't improved at all is SWYL, which is pretty much par for the course.

Also Ben Reid limped off the ground with a knee injury.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • 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.
