I have a feeling I’ll be crying into my wine by quarter time as Buddy kicks his 17th goal. 

This sounds like the first line of a country and western song.

 

Usually by the weekend im more optimistic, but this game is coming up so fast....

How do you test a broken jaw?

I can think of other years

when barracking for my team

was everything a younger fan could do

I could never see finals

for there were always better rivals

How can you mend a broken team

How can you stop the raining goals

How can what's begun stop declining

 

What makes this club go round ?

How can you mend, this broken team

How do these losers ever win

please help them mend this broken start

and let them play again

 

I can still taste the Bries

pass the mussels if you'd please

and a dusty Sangiovese while I cry

 

we will never watch'em in finals

how do we stop them falling down

I see nothing in Hore that screams he will make it. Poor decision if he is in the side.

a screaming Hore - well i never.

So who is the player from Friday not on the plane? Neal-Bullen?

Hore and Spargo should be nowhere near the AFL side. At least playing Preuss would give Sydney something different to think about.

Might be because it is not on the weekend.

They are taking a kid who had a broken jaw two weeks ago. This is way more serious than I thought.

Spargo is tough as guts but.

i'd prefer him out there compared to a lot of others.  even for a kid you generally know what you'll get

Yes I think he must’ve left him out in the first tweet.

I heard SEN mention all but Preuss as well though.

Not discussing how tough he is. Surely it takes longer than two weeks to heal a broken jaw. Has the smell of continuing to playing Smith with a injury in a practice match. Oh that's right we did not think it would get any worse. God deliver me.

Well combined with the issues around lack of fitness due to pre-season factors, it sounds like it would be a quite justifiable one.   

Hopefully that is offset/mitigated by Sydney's 5 day break.

Second sharp one for the day cook!

If you don’t laugh you....

Yes I have done too much of that over the years.

Dark cloud over this team. Seem really bereft of confidence.

Goodys pressers make it seem he isnt quite sure how it all went wrong or how to fix it.

Would love if we turned it around, but history shows how poor we are against them... and up there its been how long since we won?

 

 

 

 

Spargo wont play unless Hunt or Lockhart are a late withdrawal.

Or if we want to try a three amigos small forward set up.

Or if he plays in the midfield (which by the way is his natural position).

He got dropped and then had his jaw broken in his VFL match. He got dropped for a reason and hasn’t had time to rectify the cause of his  dropping and build form to return to AFL level. If he plays, it’s poor decision making by the coaching staff.

  • 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.
