    Looks like the Tigers are playing 'Injury-Free' football!

    Crows did the same in rnd 23 last year and went into GF with only 2 decent workouts in over a month.  And they played like it in the GF.

    The 'Injury-Free' attitude might come back and bite the Tigers.

    I didn't think Geelong would get close to our percentage.  I was wrong.

    Right now Geelong's percentage is 129.3 (ours 129.8) with a half to go.

    Does the AFL hire police for matches? They're even waiting outside the coaches box to escort the coaches to the ground!

    Didn't realise you could hire out a copper.

    yep brown paper bags always works

    Geelong are the only team in the AFL with an actual home ground advantage. 

    No wonder they make the finals every year.

    Geelong really don't have much to gain from boosting their %.  They can only end at 7th or 8th. 

    While there are many finals combos their most probable scenarios: 

    1) We win, they play us at the G. 

    2) We lose, they travel to Sydney to face GWS/Swans or play Hawks at the G.

    It looks like they are playing hard to avoid facing us in the 1st final :D

    Not sure about that - The G as Home ground certainly helps Tigers, Pies and Hawks.  Hopefully, next year it will become our fortress as well.

    That's true, thanks.

    It looks like no matter what we do their most likely scenarios have them travelling to Sydney to face GWS/Swans or play Hawks at the G. Is that right?

    So they are building % to avoid playing us whether we win or lose? :D

    I think its the hope that if we win we go to 5th and they get pushed down to 8th.

    • 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.
