O'Mac punched it through... probably the right thing according to the commentators

Omac didn't punch it through. He was flying for the mark but a dark haired casey player punched it through. Can't remember the name.

    Spargo no goals and wasted kicking. He has a long way to go.

    Unlike him - usually it’s the other way around with very few possessions but good decision making. Probably lacking confidence. Still think he will be ok long term. He needs to develop some upper body strength to be able to stick tackles

    Doesn’t sound like the right thing to do given the scores and the time. But sounds very OMac

    have doubts on Petty, not sure he is quick enough (pace and decision making)

    Maybe Petty is just still thinking his way thru footy... and not yet playing on instinct.  Lets give him time. 

    Oscar is the one who needs his finger surgically removed from an orifice...  someone give him a rattle,  so he can move along to its beat.

    Sparrows performance was pleasing to read about. Seems to be a likely inclusion for Viney next week.

    Was hoping to read a bit about Sparrow’s game in the VFL match report. Nothing on him, not even named in the best.

    Saw Sparrow was an emergency for the Richmond game which suggests he’s still in the coach’s mind for a call-up.  Seems a likely inclusion at this point.

    Maybe he can be put in the forward line to add a bit of pressure

    Yeah- would have to be a half forward role.  

    Petracca to the midfield for Viney, Sparrow to half-forward for Petracca.

    Kielty WILL play VS Hawks, Mark it down. 

    Chance Oscar replaces him but I hope not - think we need potential of someone taking grabs up forward or going back. Could both come in to replace Weid but unlikely. Really need Smith, VB, May, Lever back and I think Baker will play in 2-3. So annoyed we put smith back on field to make groin worse he was PRIMED for marking fwd pressure dual role!!!

    Kielty, Sparrow in for Viney & Weideman.

    Thats the risk you take.  You dont rush a behind with scores level that late in the game.

    Yes you do as it gives you clean possession and the chance to move it 70 metres toward goal with one kick

    Preuss will come in for Weid. Keilty has done very little, only 10 touches he doesn't get the ball enough. ANB is injured too isn't he Corey will come in for him.

    How the hell could you tell that about bedford yet.

    As a junior he didn't get a lot of the ball and was not a goal kicker.

    At his size he has to do more than just tackle, run fast...and get a couple of kicks

    He's following a similar path to another couple of kids that have been on the list, Dom Barry & Dion Johnstone. They looked ok but couldn't find enough of the ball.

    So...just a feeling I have. Hope I'm proved wrong...

    On today’s form, Sparrow and Keilty could come in.  Add Preuss back as well. 

    Think Viney out injured, with Weideman and Hunt to be likely omissions.

    Why are we drafting these types, small forwards who don’t kick goals and don’t have too many tricks, that is X factor?

    • 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.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      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.
