Expecting a hard fought spirited performance from our lads today.  Jack Viney got back to his hard tackling best last week and Jets and Lewis back into the side should also add some hardness.  It should also help playing with a full 22 players from the start of the game, rather than the 21 we effectively have been playing with Oscar's output this year.   Everything on the line, nothing left in the tank is how we should be playing practically every game right now.

If we ultimately can't do enough to make finals in 2019, then so be it, but we achieve nothing by going soft and throwing away the season at any stage.  One match at a time, win or loose, so long as we are putting in 100% and working to rectify the chinks in the armor then we achieve something.

Personally I'm in the camp that the Saints are overrated.  No push over, but not the damaging side that some are making out either.  We weren't on our game when we played them mid last year and I doubt we will make that mistake twice.

Carn the DEMONS!

No idea what we're going to produce at the moment, we will certainly win if we play our best footy for the whole match BUT - have only played about 3 good quarters so far this season....

I think that today the team will show that they are back.

Dees by 24 points.

 

No saints are not a great side but nor are we. Tmac and the weed will have to pull their fingers out today. 

If we're able to defend the ground like we did against Sydney at the SCG, we'll win.

But if we defend it like we tried to against Port or Essendon, we'll lose, and I suspect the game will look and play out eerily similar to our St Kilda loss last year.

Saints scores have been 13.7, 10.16, 9.12, and 10.14. Low scores and inaccurate.

We just need to limit the oppositions' scoring efficiency once they're inside their 50m arc.

Surely we can hold them to less than 10 goals?

nah... all teams find their one off accuracy for the season against us... vide Geelong

16:4 for the Saints

Who didn’t play in the opener? Just Omac?

Caro having another dig at The Club in the Aged today i see. 

It all played out in 2017 Wilson, you really enjoy a good demon scandal, however small don’t you.

Does anyone care what Caro has to say these days?

She's been irrelevant for years.

It’s a double spread article so somebody must

Will the 28 degree heat favour the Saints because we appear to be one of the unfittest sides in the league? Refer rounds 1 and 3.

Or will it favour us as the Saints are coming off a veryphysical games with 3 less days break?

Somebody we shouldn't be worried about.

Weird, surely one would carry over? What happens if someone does a hammy in the warmup?

Someone said earlier that Lockhart was the carry over.  Admittedly, I didn't watch the above clip, but was he in there?

A regular media rocket up the khyber is de rigueur to ensure we don’t go the bathtub too often. She’s just reminding us and I hope the players take note. Far more appropriate than the treacle the media has been smothering us pre season.

Dean Kent to kick a bag today and be BOG. 

AS long as their collective minds are on today and not next weeks game the will win. But if they are not swiped on look out.

Saints have overachieved so far this year and sitting pretty after a very soft draw while also running into teams at the right time (Essendon as a shambles, Hawks on one leg).

The headline tonight will be “Dees give Saints a reality check”.

Melbourne by +30pts

Any minute you will wake from your dream!

what dig... it's just an article on the Saints and has a throw away comment about how in 2016/7 they were seen on similar trajectories. It hardly mentions Melbourne.

Why am I nervous AF?

i think we will win by 34 points, but either I ate a bad curry or this is as nervous as I have before a game in a while.

I thought this guy was Lockhart.

Geez, for a bloke who runs a footy-based website, you sure dont know much about the players.

Tony Lockhart was much bigger than this guy..

This is him. Sheesh.

  • 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

    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.
