 Compound finger fracture. 

It’s been a bad bad day for us. 

 
 

We are just slow..sides will absolutely kill us on the outside like Brisbane have. 

Some worrying signs.

backline a real worry

He wasn't best 22 in 2016 2017 or 2018 so yes 2019 he's still not lol

I get that he can run, but honestly we have a better version of him in ANB and even he is struggling.

They said it was a compound fracture of the finger.

May - what an idiot

Nothing in it.  Soft bump to chest. 

You blokes are kidding yourselves 

 

We have been two rotations down since half time, plus we took less players into the game.  It will be no surprise if we don't run the game out well.  I just don't want any more injuries.

Is it just a glitch on the afl site stats, or am I right observing that we have only used 23 players (including JKH who was gone early and Harmes who didn't make it to half time) while Brisbane have used all 26 possible under JLT rules?

Frost, Petty and Wagner were all out there for Casey earlier, weren't they?


Second quarter fightback was promising but we’ve been comfortably second best in both games.

Yep, they chose to give those guys more time at Casey instead of, say, just a half or less in the main stuff.

It's only a practice match but if we play like this in the real stuff we can safely book or ski trips in September. 


We're going to get blown away by quick teams this year.  The rules are now designed to create space and promote quick movement. We are a contested ball team that thrive on getting numbers around the ball. When it gets into space, we are one of the slowest teams in the league. Hopefully players like Sparrow and Bedford come on quickly, as we still need genuine leg speed IMO.

Disappointing to see us have another team (likely) kick 100+ against us again. We've got a lot of work do on our defensive running.

Late unnecessary bump, high (maybe, probably) and player walked off for concussion test

Stupid, unnecessary, knowing our luck, out

Absolutely nothing in it.  Get a grip mate. 

It was a block at worst!!!

Not really concerned about this performance. It's incredible how little this matters; just supposed to be a warm-up for the real stuff.

... I like to think I'd be saying the same thing if we were winning by 10 goals, but honestly I can't say for sure :-X

I saw Burton do worse on Higgins last year and got off. Come to think of it did he even get a fine?

MRO won’t even look at it.

 

Haven't seen anything to suggest we'll get near it this year at all. May looks slow and out of position constantly.

Lucky it's just preseason but my expectations were shot to pieces on that day at Optus Stadium and they haven't recovered yet.

I don’t know if you guys follow the NBA, but as Boston fan, Jetta reminds me so much of Marcus Smart.

  • 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.

    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.
