    Watching the dogs v north game and Seeing th Bont made me ask did we have the chance to draft him. 

    Evidently we did if we had not have done the Dom and Salem thing.

    With benefit of hindsight, what would we do now? What we did? Take Kelly? Take the Bont?

    For mine, we do what we did. I say this in the hope that Christian gets over his poor run of luck and is that classy player we need, Yze style!

    How that bloke still has a job is a mystery to me.  So many better options out there.

    Voss, Leppa......

    For sure their next coach will be Akermanis, Simon Black or Matthew Lappin.

    A few rubbish low scores this week, the week after Roos said teams are getting tired and the footy gets a bit uglier. 

    Meanwhile the youngest team we've put out beat the reigning premier and posted the 2nd highest score of the round thius far. 

    Getting too easy this caper.

    You obviously missed Clarkson's presser where he bemoaned Hawthorn's young team!!

    With an average of 196 games of experience or something. Laughable.

    Poor sportsmanship on his part I thought, especially when he said 'they were off a little and we were on a little'. 

    Anyone else would say they were beaten by a better side, on the day.

    Can't barrack for the them but hope Carlton wins so we can stay ahead of Saints on the ladder! 

    Would be great to finish above them at 9th or 10th...a real springboard for 2017.

    Bit of a percentage booster for the Aints..

    Carlton are a rabble.  Their game plan is okay against some teams but their list is terrible.  Again, I have no idea why the media talks them up.  They're not a good football side.

    Why aren't the Drug Cheats playing down at Geelong? This should be their 186, instead they're playing in Melbourne.

    Further, we all know how depleted Essendon are, but it'll be interesting to see if Worsfold still has it next year.

    When the fixture was done the CAS result hadn't been handed down.

    However, this was the year to send Carlton down the highway, after their disaster last year. I'd be sending them there next year. It's only fair. Instead, Carlton get saved whilst the Dogs, finalists last year, have to go down there.

    I'd love to see Carlton and/or Richmond playing in Geelong next year. It's time, and it's fair.

    Nigel ? Both from Chiltern, but Matthew played for the Blues and Saints.

    Was just reading this: http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-08-06/forget-fourthorn-swans-set-to-soar and 15 of 18 coaches thought that Ess can make the finals next year.

    The media view is that the returning 12 will automatically lift them back into contention in  2017 and it seems most coaches share that view.  But they don't have a decent ruckman, their key forward is a youngster, no forward line to speak of, Hurley is a swingman but can't play both ends of the ground, they have only a handful of on-ballers etc.

    Even when some or all the12 come back they will need to settle into the team, get their touch back, learn game plan etc.  I think teams can cope with one or two players coming back after a year out but not with 6-12!

    I see them being several years away from playing finals but obviously I'm missing something the coaches can see.

    Lions need to bite the bullet and move Leppa on right away and start the search for a replacement, his results have been Neeld-like and their list is better than ours was when Roos took over.

    • 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.
