Any news?

I would think 5pm is the latest time for nominations...

    Looking like we haven't nominated Woey's boy as a father son, which means we can't match a pick. Maybe  that means we don't think he will be in demand or maybe we want to add him to the list after national draft as a rookie.

    This is a last minute decision obviously.

    We have 4 spots available and picks 17, 37, 48, 57 and 94.

    Wonder of they'll try and bundle 48 and 57 for an earlier pick or trade a pick for a 2022 pick. Doubt Woewodin will go before pick 57, or even draw an opposition bid at all. Pick 94 should get it done.

    Whatever, the boy gets a spot on the main list.

    Good news, I love the prospect of a son playing for the team his father played for.

    II watched Woey play his first game for Melbourne, at that time there wasn't a great deal of information available on the new recruits, so I knew little about him, he was quite impressive.

    I reckon we'll try, it's just whether there are any takers. 

    Wonder if he'll also get the nickname Woey.

    I'm still working on whether Goodwin is a good coach.

    No romance in this for me. Billy Stretch for instance, was a third round pick.

    Only question for me is that he is the best player available at the pick they take him.

    Well Praha you are a very slow worker.

    Stop over thinking and look at the results and give credit where credit is due.

    Basically Goody  oversaw ALL that happened in 2021  All the coaches and players 24/7 and a hundred and one other issues throughout the season. 
    Evety time we were 3 goals down in a big game we responded and rarely failed.

    Pies and Giants and Dogs we came up short in the middle of the season but that all helped us learn about ourselves.

    We grew and exploded on the big stage and ended up with our biggest and one of the best GF wins to claim our 13th flag. In Goodys hands are our 14, 15 and 16 th flags potentially.

    Lets give him our unwavering faith and support to achieve that and lay a stronger base than ever before for our future and growth in this all conquering AFL competition.

    I'm not an expert but I take an interest in watching some kids when I think they are a chance to be picked up by us.

    From what I’ve seen Taj is great below his knees, picks the ball up really cleanly and can kick with both feet.
    He doesn't get huge disposal numbers (mid 20s every game) but does a lot with it, good decision maker and he has gotten better as the year went on.

    Mainly played inside and outside midfield but he also has a bit of flexibility, his talents could developed to be used in a halfback role like Salem/Bowey or half forward role like Spargo/Neal Bullen role but I'm not sure on his tank.
    In the draft combine he was 2nd best in the 20m sprint with a blistering time of 2.89 seconds.
    He was captain of East Freo this year which is always a good sign in regards to a players character.

    I read an article yesterday on SEN saying he models his game on Steele Sidebottom and Mitch Duncan.
    From all reports he is driven and professional, so I think given the opportunity at the Demons he will flourish around players with similar hard work ethic like Brayshaw, Petracca etc 

    We will probably use pick 49 on him.

    I may be wrong but I think @praha was JK. 🙂

    • 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.
