I knew when we weren’t converting at the start of the 3rd we were done. They’ve had 6 inside 50s for 5 goals, went way too tall for the conditions and our midfield is letting them get simple kicks in there. 

Absolutely disgusting efforts inside our forward 50 all night, TMac has been awful, Weiderman (who simply HAD to kick his) mostly unsighted, Melksham continues to look off the pace, and Petracca mostly useless. 

But ultimately our deficiencies in defence has made this an ugly night. There’s no logical set up, no one marshalling the troops into position, they look like headless chooks. I don’t think it’s possible for me to be more [censored] off with such a pathetic effort.

    Next week’s game will be one for the highlights reel ?

    We have the worst defence in the league. It’s not just the personnel it’s the structures. 

    Every time Geelong goes forward it’s like a sunny day with a dry ball.

    Annoying. But hardly the difference.

    It does not include the ones we should have been paid.

    Going to be a very long season.

    At least three games shorter than 2018.

    The bastards pump us up, give us hope then serve up garbage.

    We've kicked 27 points across the last 4 quarters.

    If you include the PF, we're looking at 4 full goalless quarters.

    In our past 3 matches, we've gone the equivalent of an entire match without a goal.

    And that's with 1 quarter left to play.

    We have been found out and we refused to analyse where it started

    Well let’s be honest. 

    At Half Time in Last Years Preliminary Final, we were Goalless, but the coach refused to review it. 

    I would have spent weeks pulling that game apart

    I bet lots of other Clubs took a very close look at it. 

    Over to you Goodwin....

    He doesn't own the responsibility. Even last week... let's blame something else .

    You can understand the team being underdone re fitness but what's the excuse about poor basic skills & bad decision making?

    Geelong are just so crisp & accurate even with a team of so many new players in bad conditions.

    One prelim finals appearance in god knows how long and yep, that'll do us...

    Sucks that we always have to play down at this s-$#hole place.  Unfair. When did Filth last play here?

    Sack Goodwin.  Everything that's gone wrong was blindingly obvious last season and he did nothing to fix it. 

    No chance he’s going to be sacked, but seriously there needs to be a plan B. At the moment we’re down on pace and skill. Team selection needs to be about team balance. Last year we had Tyson on the wing. Now it’s Jones. Chunk has a lot of heart but he has never ever been fleet of foot.

    Jade Rawlings leaving is evident.

     

    Siren and heads down. I hate asking this question but where is the leadership from Jones? At least Viney had a crack early

    • 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.
