Please, please, please don't let us lose to this rabble next week.

We've had many a flogging from this side, for once I want us to deal out some punishment to them!

Giving them a good thrashing at the MCG could well be remembered as the day the Hawks plunged into mediocrity.

Sounds arrogant ... just like Hawks supporters have been for 20 odd years

    I think they have already plunged into mediocrity DJ.

    At least I can take solace in the fact we will likely have some big wins over them in the next few years.

    I would say Gibson, Burgoyne, Hodge will all retire this year. Compounded with Mitchell and Lewis leaving at the end of last year will cause a huge leadership hole. Plus Roughy would only have a year or two left as well you would think.

    A hawks supporter at work the other day mentioned that they will just go to free agency. I told him that by the end of this season the only free agents they will attract are has beens or so-so players trying to earn a little more cash. No gun player in their right mind would go there if they want some semblance of success before they retire.

    No 1st round pick this year.... HA HA HA.

    Swans fall from grace has been amazing. No way did I think they would lose this one.

    Longmire may need to step aside.  Maybe it's time for a different approach, as clearly what they are doing just isn't working anymore.

    True, but none of them have had to deal with the injuries we've had.  I don't like using it as an excuse, but it isn't as if we've had a full list and played poorly.  There's more to it than that.

    With Swans Hawks and North failing, the door into the 8 is wide open for us.

    no excuses.

    Are injuries a valid excuse?

    Port are giving Brisbane an absolute bath. 43pts  up with 7 minutes to go in the 1st quarter.

    The 3000 watching Brisbane v Port might be 1000 at quarter time.

    Don't be fooled by Sydney being on the bottom.  They are more likely to bounce back 2nd half this season and definitely next season than are North or Hawks.

    Sydney have had a bad run with injuries so far (and they lost Tippett this morning).  They have a young list with quite a bit of talent which just need some experience.  About 8-10 of their GF team had played less than 50 games.

    I think Tippett comes out of contract his year and it is hard to see him get the mega $ again so that should free up some sal cap space.    

    They are a very smart, well run club.  Longmire is no dummy and knows exactly where they are at and what needs to be done. 

    This is a temporary lull for Sydney.  More permanent for North and Hawks.

    Agreed.

    Before people start thinking 'poor demons, we have so many injuries' just look at those of other teams. 

    If we get into this 'woe me' mindset we will make excuses for real problems with our game and performance.  Like Goodwin said - good teams find a way to win regardless of personnel out.

    So agreed, no more 'injury' excuses.

    I raised the injuries a few times but got howled down saying only two at most were best 22

    Gawn and Hogan (not injured ... I know)

    • 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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
