Did I just hear Basil "the beak" Zemplis say Suns are "well organised under Rocket Eade." 

The standard of commentary across most games is terrible.

 

Hey if Nth lose it will be good to watch the game just to see Brad Scotts face. I hope the suns do win. Andrew Swallow in the crowd. Still cant believe he was dropped.

No Swallow guys on the field tonight.

Agree about Swallow. He might not be in career best form but he has been far from their worst, and not the one to blame for many of their losses. Chris Scott has a terrible record when it comes to managing his older players and leaders. 

Great night of sport, the Reds v Tahs blockbuster along with the West Tigers v Sharks and A League SF is on...


Fox must be licking their lips with all these idiotic scheduling decisions made by the brains trust at Seven; consistently choosing dud games as their free-to-air offering.

No

Seeing seat advertising at Docklands tonight that I never knew existed because there is usually a few people sitting on them.

Very bad game except for Ablett's dominance.

Time for some book reading methinks

It's worth watching just for the Ablett dominance.  Don't have any particular love for the bloke but I do love the way he has shoved it right up the anus of the footy media who had decided he should retire.

Think 7 picked well at this point. The Darby is terrible. 

Dockers playing like a rabble, Eagles are skiing here again. Doesn't matter though, local bragging rights aside this match means nothing, the Power are going to bend the Eagles over next week. 

How come Freo struggle for goals all season yet kicked them with ridiculous ease against us on our home ground?

Problem 101

our defense is still a major concern....

Rubbish.

Excuses, even plausible ones like injuries are an avoidance of owning and talking responsibility for doing what's required to win. 

Losing is the result of one team succumbing to discouragement and turning their focus from those opportunities to win, to justifying why it's ok to lose... aka excuses. 

We didn't learn how to win after the Cats ran over us when Maxy went down, and as a result when it happened again two weeks later, the same result ensured. Instead of languishing the the comfort of a plausible excuse, "poor us Maxy went down", we should have taken responsibility to be ready should it happen again... 

I'm not saying things don't go against you or the team, and injuries are one of these, but as soon as you accept these events as plausible excuses that justify losing, you set yourself up for mediocracy, and failure. 

So, no excuses.

I would say our midfield and forwards lack of pressure.

This game (Norf vs Suns) sets the high water mark for how many dubious frees can be paid in a team's forward line.

If Hogan ever gets as much help from umpires in a game as Ben Brown, he'll kick 10.

I don't think our midfield lacks pressure. 

But to my untrained eye the defence always looks a mess. 

I can never work out modern day defence strategy though!!!

Troy Pannell is a disgrace.

Who?

I stopped watching the game. But why are opposition supporters suddenly booing Gaz? I dont get it. I know carlton fans did it it the other week but it just doesnt make sense. 

By the way the crowd ended up being 15,431. I know its a Saturday night and they are playing Gold Coat but seriously thats low. 

Gaz 21 40 possession games...

Here's a stat for the stat hunters. Who was the last Demon to grab 40 touches? Another one... who will be next? I reckon Clarry does it at some point this year.

Bernie Vince had 40 touches a couple of seasons ago.

  • 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.
