What

Spencer in for Gawn the obvious forced change. 

We cant afford to lose this game it would be a huge early blow to our finals chances, and Freo have started very well vs the Doggies in the game just underway in Perth.

    Hannan may also get the chop for someone like Ben Kennedy.  I'd love to add Hibberd to the list as well but he needs a week or two at Casey.

    They should be breathing fire after today.

    Spencer gets his chance.

    Would have loved a Casey game for Pedersen, Frost and others to push their claim, but the ridiculous VFL fixture has robbed them of that chance.

    Agree along with Frost for Harmes. Frost is quicker!

    Have a look at how the young Moore is going at Collingwood without Cloke.

    Neither he nor Weideman are ready for the number 1 backman and nor should they be.

    The Weed is the future and unless you think he will improve playing with an unco-ordinated system on a windy oval such is the VFL... we need to keep playing him

    I know you want to keep running with the OMac theme, but deep down you know it won't happen.  Nice try.

    Is Frost not a better option?

    I didn't say that.  They may bring him in as the third tall, but whatever happens, it won't be at the expense of OMac.

    I'd go 

    out: gawn, weid

    In: spencer kennedy-Harris

    Spencer for Gawn is obvious.

    I'll keep my powder dry on the 'ins' until we have some feedback from Casey's 3/4 practice match today, but Hannan has struggled for the last two weeks as has Weid.

    Ins: Spencer Pedersen Kennedy Bugg

    Out: Gawn Weideman Hannan Harmes

  • Quote

    I thought Neal Bullen poor today and that chip back into the square dropable alone!!

    Harmes also not the answer. Stick with Hannan and Weeds

    Bring in Spencil, Frost, Kennedy and Bugg

  • Quote

    Think about it... everyone says we played well etc etc

    next week we play Freo

    The replacements are not match fit (practice matches in the VFL are not quite the same)

    So .. why change unless forced ... Spencer in

    Time to show faith

  • Quote

    Brayshaw for Harmes, Bugg for Hannan, Frost for either Weideman or Smith, Pencil for Max.

    I'll like to free up vince to go forward/mid. We desperately need some class up there. Really don't think vince is suited down back 

    Bring in Wagner or hibberd if ready

  • Quote

    I can't recall too many games where a player is virtually unsighted and you start to look at the team sheets to check if they are actually playing. Sam Weiderman had one of those today. Needs to go back to Casey for a bit.

  • Quote

    Gawn and Hogan are arguably our two most important players and we won't have either of them next week, it's a worry no matter who we play.

    • 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.
