To all those who wanted spargo rested, a pox on your house.

To all those who didn't want Melksham 2 years ago, a pox on your house.

To all those who thinks Oscar should be in the twos, a pox on your house.

To all those who believe this club was no good, A POX ON YOUR HOUSE.

GO DEES

 

Compare the pair. We know plus or minus a player or two who will be in our 2018 Preliminary Final Team. Here's the team from 30 years ago including a number of stars but also some players I don't even remember (Bret Bailey?). I think the 2018 team would have the 1988 team covered (which is a huge compliment to John Northey for getting them into the GF).

What's a pox?


Word on Perth radio is that Lycett might not get up. Couldn't participate in their main session on the weekend.

 Could be mind games to mess with our defensive set up too

That would be massive. We need every advantage we can get.

I think it’s something you get when you’ve been near a Collingwood supporter...

Nah, we're better on paper... just need fair umpiring.

The 87 team made a prelim and followed it up with a GF appearance in 88 so they weren't too bad.

A few similarities in the sense that both teams didn't have the greatest of home and way seasons. In '88 we started like a house on fire as I recall then had a mid season slump... (won 7 out of the first 8 and then 6 out of the next 14).

Northey was on the radio the other day and like many here say the 1990 premiership was ours to win.

Wow, that team was so inexperienced.  The average games played would lucky to be over 50.

The only change I would be tempted to make would be

Out: Tyson

In: Hunt

West coast have two very quick small forwards. The length of the ground and the ability to switch with pace. Hunt looked ok for Casey in conditions that were terrible. I would take a risk. 

SEN reported Max trained indoors today ?

...Club said he will be going to Perth with the team...

tempted for J Smith for Tyson but gotta keep the team feel running

 

Smith is a part of the year's successes - therefore, a team member with a full deck of cards. He is more potent than Tyson. Therefore, Smith in, Tyson issued a ticket to spectate.

you'd pick a guy who's been out of form all year and was just 'ok' in the vfl? bit late in year to speculate

#nochangedees

Gaff, NicNac and Sheppard out is pretty handy

You mean like with Goldsack.


No change. Stability is great this time of the season. In 2005 Sydney didn't have a change for about 10 weeks.

no goldsack wasn't out of form, just out of game time like jack viney. goldsack is more of an experienced known quantity too

having said that, goldsack was still a risk. hunt would be a bigger risk (and i'm a hunt fan)

Humour meter off?

Edited by Redleg

Its not the right thread but Im so caught up in the euphoria of success at the minute I ju st wanted to give a shout out to Viney. Hasnt played for half a season and plays wonderfully.

As far as changes maybe Vince for Tyson but I dont think it will happen.

Go you good demons.

  • 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.
