Hoping for a Collingwood win as a Melbourne v Collingwood Grand Final would be so right on so many grounds.

Of course Richmond supporters would say we avoided them but there's always next year.

 

I expect Richmond to be too good and Collingwood to fade in the 2nd half.

Tigers by 33.

My heart says Collingwood in a nail biter, my head says Richmond by plenty.

Interesting that many people are almost writing Collingwood off.

They were only beaten in the last quarter in the West and beat the seemingly inform GWS.

Or is it that people think Richmond are so good.

Sidebottom is elite and they have a dominant ruck in Grundy. Pendlebury delivers week in week out. Forward line is a little brittle and they seem to have patched together a decent backline. And of course there is that star player that Buckley discovered by switching him down back.. can't quite remember his name.


Rich have been the best team for the last 2 seasons..and what changes this week? nothing. Tigers by 30+

don't give a fig. filth or ferals, who cares, will thrash either.

go dees. raise hell in the west

Tigers by 3 goals.

Either way, I hope its the most physical game ever played.

Let’s hope that they go hard at it, plenty of (two-week) injuries and lots of reports!

Just thought the Pies, GWS game was really scrappy, so Tiges for me.

My mistake


I'd expect Maynard and Adams etc to really rough up the tigers.  Probably the only chance collingwood have.  on talent and structure, the tigers should win easily.

Could not care less who wins, as I think at our best we can beat both.

Would I prefer to beat Collingwood on GF day, for sure.

Do I hope both teams get loads of medium term injuries? yes. 

 

Think it will be close and 80 points will be enough to win it. Hope they beat the shyte out of each other.

I begrudgingly admire how well the Pies have gone this season despite being slaughtered by injury.

I think they run out of gas tonight though.  Tigers by 76.

True, but if we lose to WCE do you really want C'wood in a GF?

Good point.

To be fair I am not even contemplating the possibility of a WCE win.

I hope both teams leave absolutely nothing out there ( apart from limbs etc ). Hope both a totally spent forces ;)

Collingwood will play for 3 quarters and Richmond will win

Pies have scored 76,70,69 in their last 3 games. They will need to score a lot more than that if they are to beat Richmond in my opinion. If Collingwood can win the territorial battle they could go close to beating them. Richmond do it better than most though. Tigers 94-67.


I just absolutely hate the filth. I hope the tigers smash them to oblivion. I don't like Richmond either.

Not fussed who wins but a Dees filth granny would light a fuse under this town it hasn't seen the likes of for half a century !!

Just hoping for a maniacal game of attrition ;)

Should not be underestimated what it would do for our brand (hate that word) to re-ignite the mystical nostalgia of '58 and '64.

Could be the fillip to deliver another ten thousand members next year.

Some big hurdles still to be overcome but no use dwelling on the negatives at this time of year.

 

I think Richmond will win, and purely from a selfish perspective, that's the way I'd prefer it to go.  My rationale:

  • I 'dees-pies' Collingwood so much that the thought of them playing off in a Grand Final makes me want to puke;  and
  • if we happened to play Collingwood in the Grand Final, Grundy has the capacity to reduce the influence of our major trump card in big Max, making a win more difficult for us.

It hurts me to say it, but I want a Richmond win tomorrow night.  Maybe by a big margin, so they drink a tub full of their own bathwater before facing a rampant Dees outfit.

  • 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

  • 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.
