To me, that's the only thing that I've been disappointed with.  I can handle the skills, fitness etc. at this time of the year.  But our pressure when the ball his the deck hasn't been great, and for the game style we have it needs to be better.  We bomb it in and if it isn't marked then we keep it in there and set up the wall.  Hasn't happened nearly enough today, although you would expect it to improve when the real stuff begins.

I expect it to be good now. I hope it improves when the real stuff begins. 

We are down to 2 on the bench compared to lions with 8 they should run this out fairly easy I would have thought 

 

how can may get a game round 1 on that display,always thought he was well over rated


At least we are having the same issues we had for most of last season - too easy to run it out of our forward 50 resulting in easy scores the other way.  So we know it can be fixed.

Stats - we score from 35% of I50, they score from almost 50%

We don’t have any crumbing forwards, been saying it for ages.

That's what Spargo should be, but he refuses to play that role.

I think he’s ok. For a young kid he is quite composed. I like him.

Yep, not seeing much composure with him this game. Maybe he prefers it on the outside, as he seems to panic when there's congestion.

nothing has changed ,same as 2017 good grief ,these players drink there own bath water

Bath water stuff by Melbourne thank god it's jlt need to lift only Smith and Jetta have played well the rest have been ordinary to woeful.

So many average players today. 

Can't see Nibbler or Stretch getting a game Round 1.

It's a shame Garlett got injured. He's never been consistent, but he's the best small forward we've had this decade and can slot his 40 goals per year. Spargo is a smart footballer, but he just doesn't get involved enough either offensively or defensively. Kent is gone. Hannan is injured until second half of the year. JKH likely injured for a while too. Hopefully Bedford comes on quickly, as it's definitely an area we're lacking in.

Hore has been horrible today. Don't expect to see him play round 1 unless we are struggling with injuries.

Really need Brayshaw to clean up his disposal efficiency. He gets a lot of it, but he needs to be cleaner.

    Players have been reading their own press. Time for Goodwin to put a media ban on some of these prima donas. 

    Our boys look absolutely spent. Not many positives so far.

    May has been ordinary.

    AVB is hard as nails.

    We cant take a grab inside 50. 

    No crumber near the goals.

    Oliver has had a 'mare.

    Backline needs a lot of time together to work seamlessly, but thankfully time is something we have.

    We can still win (which wont mean much), but this team has a long way to go to make it to what it was at the end of last season.

    Bears actually want to win.

    Hipwood kicked 2 goals in a minute. May went to him and he hasn’t touched it since. What more do you want from a FB?

    without max today it would have been 20 goal hiding

    • 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.

    • 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.
