The G has not been our friend this year. :P

 

Last Time we were at the G, we won…and that was with Frost, Spargo, Garlett, and Hannan in the side.

That's a much more Richmond-esque amount of pace and it really helped us. As long as we select properly, the MCG won't be a negative for us any longer IMO.

    I don't mind Sunday.  We can manipulate a loss if it suits us.

    Cue the tanking investigation if we did, especially if we went on to win the premiership.

    I could see the AFL taking a flag off us for such a move.

    Hahahah and they still manage to give Carlton a night game (Saturday). Unbeleivable!

    PS Very happy with our Sunday PM times slot just FYI.

    Carlton game should be under the darkness at MARS stadium

    That would be a fantastic result because losing round 23 matches is definitely a strength of ours...

    Happy with the timeslot, scared about the possible Sunday night heartbreak. Makes Monday that little bit harder.

    4pm sunday game seems totally out of character? It's always been etihad 1pm, 3:20 sunday game no? I think the AFL [censored] are giving a team one last crack at us if we somehow are hinging on the result.

    In that scenario, all you have to do is drink a skinfull of alcohol Sunday night and call in sick on Monday.

    I'm dreading that St Kilda v North game. Hopefully we have it stitched up by then. If we have to rely on St Kilda to beat or keep North's percentage down then St. Kilda would have screwed us twice in one year. *

    * Yeah I know it will have been self inflicted but I have to blame someone.

    At the beginning of the season we had  a game plan with three talls, which works really well at the docklands, it does not work well at the MCG. You need totally different game plans at both grounds, Jennings is paid good money how he  and the coaches can't work this out is beyond me.

    It makes no sense for Carlton-Adelaide to play any time other than Sunday. Neither is finals bound so recovery time is irrelevant.

    And we end up with a crowd-killing mid-afternoon Sunday time slot just to limit our take at the gate one more time.

    Melbourne-GWS makes at least as much sense as Port-Essendon for Friday in a football sense. The Bummers could well be grounded by then.

    Recovery time from the Perth trip is more important to us, than before a final, if we make it, as there is a bye before the first round of the finals, so Saturday game or Sunday game in the last round is irrelevant with regards to finals

    Good idea but it would be nice to keep a few sick day bullets In the chamber for September ?

    If we are finals bound on that Sunday against GW$, there will be a decent crowd at the ‘G

    Late Sunday is perfect for us

    Yeah...I had the brain in neutral there. Forgot about the bye.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • 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.
