I don't share everyone's confidence

Yes they have outs but Hawthorn are still a great outfit, coached well and have experience across the board.

We should win, but I fear we may run into a team desperate to respond who rarely lose two in a row.

Hawks by 25. Would love to be wrong

 

Forecast for the rest of Friday

    I have planned this well as I have a full knee replacement on Monday. If the Pies(puke) had won I would have left the hospital and straight to the G for the prelim but happy to watch the match from Perth on TV now.  Allow yourself plenty of time to get there and walk slowly.

    I feel a  bit more nervous today than last friday. Im expecting Clarko to have his hawks up and going. This week has been virtually all baout us. We all know how good of a coach Clarko is. There has been a reason why that team has been the best team over the past 10 years. 

    It would be great if we could get off to an awesome start like we did last friday night. 

    Come on boys get the job done and lets keep this dream going

    Put $50 on a Hawthorn win and you can watch the game knowing either outcome will make you feel slightly happy.

    Think we can do it. Go Dees

     

    Why would you do that? $50 down the drain. Have faith you could have made money tonight my friend.

    We are primed.  No changes and confidence is sky high.   Hawks will need to do a lot of reshuffling with O Meara and Stratton out.

    We should belt them if we bring the same manic pressure as last week.

    ...and kick straight.

    Just need to bring last weeks intensity and take our chances better and will be fine. Dees by 28.

    Stay with m til half time then belt them in the second half. Losing this would be devastating. It will be harder for the boys this week than last week.

    I reckon the dream for 2018 ends tonight. We are good enough on our day, but you cant expect kids to keep getting up every week. 

    Hope to be wrong though.

    We would beat the Eagles again if we could make it past the Hawks.

    Go Dees.

    LOL.  I was reading the paper today and Ladbrokes are  saying all the money is coming in on Hawthorn which I found interesting....  I didn't realise it was from Dees supporters!

    Viney's second game back in round ten 35 possessions. Just saying. Against the team that was fourth on the ladder at the time.

    You might want to recheck that history. Before this year sure but we have won most games as Fav this year. Including the last two against top eight sides.

    And no rain means we'll see all our goals with no obstruction whatsoever.

    Great way of putting it. We haven't really been in this position in a long time. We've been a little better at dealing with it in the last few weeks, and we'll continue to get better.

    Is he the player that commentators refer to as a ‘tough nut’ purely because he has a mullet?

    I think adrenaline will be fueling some of the boys who might be getting tired. They just need to win 3 more games this year, that's doable - and it's only two weeks away!

    We've got tonight, Dees by 4 goals. Not a blowout. Just another strong performance where we take our chances.

    The boys know what to do. Confident of a reasonably comfortable victory.

    • 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.

    • 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

      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.
