Greater Western Sydney (a dynasty to rival the Hawks)

The Dees could have the so called dynasty under Northey and Balme,it all goes down to how the club is run and whether we choose the right sort of players. Under Neeld we thought we were getting something special instead we got a disaster,we picked up plenty of rejects as no one of quality wanted to play for us. Re-build times ……. blah blah.

Do I need to say more…………………………..

    This is straying off-topic, but do you think Sheedy would have taken the same "type" of players as we recruited under Bailey? Think about it.

    No he wouldn't. He was bitter and half senile but he wouldn't have cleared out all the experience. Dad's Army? Bailey wanted kids kids kids to the point where you wondered if he'd end up on a police watch list.

    I can't imagine Sheedy drafting small/skinny outside players like Morton, Blease, Strauss, Maric, Gysberts, Cook hell even Watts.

    Sheedy had nothing to do with who they drafted and didn't even know his own players...

    True story, when Phil Davis went up to talk to Sheedy at breakfast early in the piece he (Sheedy) was looking for a pen to sign him an autograph. Someone had to tell him Davis was his co captain, not a fan...

    That's hilarious.

    Happy for the dogies, just shows that a real team can beat a manufactured one, despite the level of manipulation on the part of the AFL.

    Hope we can play them for the flag next year, what a game that would be.

    I've heard from a current giants player that the cultute up there isn't very good, plenty of playing favourites going on

    The problem I've got is that the Giants will lose players that aren't getting a game and continue to bring more talent in through the draft. They will get picks for McCarthy, Stuart, Marchbank, Hoskin-Elliot etc etc. 

    Theyve just made a prelim final and over the past few years have lost Tyson, Hombsch, Frost, Treloar, O'Rourke, Boyd, Miles, McCarthy, four blokes to Carlton. 

    Where does it bloody end......

    Because they have had so many picks they can take a risk in the draft on a smokey like Lobb. Other clubs can't afford to do this.

    I hope your right in saying the cultures no good up there. When they eventually do bottom out and it will happen I hope their players look forward to playing infront of crowds of 5000 or less.

    • 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.
