Matt Jones' disposal gets found out even at this level.

    Pretty lacklustre game so far, Oliver in everything but Casey just lacking class.

    Trengove's footspeed has improved but he still lacks explosiveness.

    Quarter Time and that was the Doggies quarter. However, their poor kicking is keeping Casey in the game. Bullies 2.7.19 to Scorps 2.1.13.

    We need Matt Jones' run, by my god, we cannot delist him quick enough. At this level there is no excuse for turnovers like that, but yet he consistently makes them.

    If you come back from a broken collar bone after 2 weeks then every player should be testing it out anyway they can.

    Exactly what I thought. Can be used to rev them up but that was completely over the top

  • Quote

    Dunn is an okay defender but his ability to rebound is almost zero.

    Time they played smart and put a small near him that could take the handpass and run.

    The days of the big kick from the back line are well and truly gone

    Footscray way too fast with their outside run.

     

    The same lack of speed and transitional thinking that affects the Dees afflicts the Scorps too.

     

    Dunn is a lovely long kick but he gets caught between pushing up to the contest and dropping back all the time, and the less said about Garland the better.

     

    Footscray look way better after one quarter.

    Why not? Didn't lose anything in that scuffle, but maybe regained some ascendency. Gotta spark the troops somehow.

    Im all for testing it out but Dunn ran towards him, grabbed him and completely threw him to the ground for no particular reason.

    Stupid.

    Depends. If It makes Fottscray want to hunt heads instead of the ball then it's a good move. If it makes us want to keep going with it then it was a bad one.

    Far far too predictable & easy for the dogs to defend. Long kick or switch, nothing short and no run then kick to get over the zone.

    Yeah, it was quarter time and obviously planned. Can't give away a free so why not. Nothing wrong with it in my mind.

    Just letting Jong know he missed an easy shot and testing out his shoulder. Hopefully it fired the boys up a bit. Dunn was good that quarter. Unfortunately the midfield didn't work hard enough and got found out for speed. Going to need to close down the corridor and start getting some decent link up and actually hit targets.

  • Quote

    Run and gun and pressure at the breakdown will always beat the kind of waffley predictable sideways nonsense Casey are playing. Oliver knows how, otherwise it's gonna get very ugly.

    Oliver is so clean and dynamic. Man crush is growing!

    • 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.
