Petracca's intercept, shimmy and brilliant handball to set up Jones in the 4th - a crucial goal - was the moment of the day for mine. He is doing fine.

Easily his best game for the club ... close to being more than decent.

Salem - composed and strong (he won me over tonight, I have always thought him too un-involved and weak under pressure)

Vandenberg - very clumsy game

Jetta - tough, skilled, dedicated

Midfield (Viney, Oliver, Brayshaw, Harmes, Tyson) - tough and polished

Weid - big game player

... might be time soon for Garlett !  for a cameo.  the need for speed and fresh legs.

I agree due respect to young Spargo he has been serviceable.  Garlett can smell a goal tackle and use his speed. Played ok in the last 2 casey games. Kicked 4 in a losing side last home and away game. Would be very valuable in a finals game. 

I think people are being far too generous with petracca. he dropped 2 basic uncontested marks inside 50, slipped over too much and missed a clutch goal that our team needed so much. 

His dropped mark was so costly i'd go as far as to say that it kept geelong in the game for the next 2 quarters.

his kicking is a disgrace and needs to sort it out asap. you can't have forwards that can't kick goals.

I think Spargo would do well from a week off freshener, so he can hopefully return the week after.

He's such a smart player... gets to the right spots to create mayhem.

My thoughts

Hames.  Fantastic game

Jetta.  Bloody wonderful 

Melksham. He can play

Lewis. Composure is critical

Weide. Great first goal won me with his last

Jones. Captains goal late but he got it

petracca great pass to the captain 

Tyson played well, worth his spot

VBH. Great physicality. Scared them !

All the rest. I love yours all !!

He has just had a week off in case you weren't aware.

your right Mono. forgot about that. Well, he seems to be getting fatigued;,,,  but it was said more about getting speed into the side, for the Hawks match-ups.

Thing is, who to let out.

The new Grinter with added talent

Grinter was more than reasonable WD ... I included him in my best 22 Demons that I've seen play (as part of a would-be team)

vanders has a ways to go but his vigour,  aggression,  tackling,  presence and hard-at-it approach is worth any number of cheap possessions.  Fritsch has real value in a similar way but for different reasons.

The numbers often doesn't always give us an accurate picture ... the eyes have it though.  And we all witnessed Weideman's impact as well.  The kid might just have it.

Have watched all 3 other finals and the standout team is Richmond ... they can be beaten but only if they don't get to play on their own terms.

Tx Macca. I only bearly remember Grinter. I was told he was really tough. I recall the crowd being excited. My dad would say its time to let him off his leach, so I assumed he wasnt a great talent. But I guess he wouldnt play if not. 

I do think Vanders is a talented player. He is our best 22 and I hope he avoids injury and we see what he can do with a lot more games under his belt. His strength is awesome and he doesnt seem to panic and although his disposal has been errant on occassion he always seems to get his hands on the pill.

Wouldnt mind seeing him one on one on the goal square like dusty or danger now and then.

Grinter was highly skilled in the air, and by foot.  And could hit an opponent at the same time he was clutching an overhead mark.

Grinter was actually quite a skilful player ... could mark & kick but he had a bit of dirt about him.  There were better backmen than him around the league but the sport was way different back then where positional play was a staple.  Could run out of defence and set up play but he was no Bruce Doull !

vanders will get better with his disposal and decision making as he plays more footy at the top level ... he's only played 5 games after a long lay-off so there's a decent amount of upside.  Needs to work on his kicking because he can create goal-scoring opportunities for himself due to his ability to take a mark in the forward line.

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
