    Good effort to suggest changes clearly without watching the game but they should be as follows:

    OUT: T. McDonald, Melksham, Jackson
    IN: Weideman, Pickett, Lockhart

    Smith gets a reprive up forward where he belongs.

    Out : 1 point win

    In    : 30 point loss

     

    Seriously, we are still a terrible team/club. To think that Peter Jackson once said in the press that it was "Offensive" to suggest Goodwin wasnt a good coach.. The only part that is offensive is the length of contract this bloke has.

    We are going NOWHERE with him at the helm.

    Big winner today was Norf.

     

    We cant make enough changes to that error-plagued and lazy outfit to make much difference next week. 

    Beyond disappointing.

    Let’s worry about the changes after we find out who played well for Casey.

    It is not just ins and outs. Look at three big name signing.

    May is not a fullback, dominated games at GC as a half back  

    Lever is only useful as a third  tall.

    Tomlinson is ok but not a wingman, 

    And then there are the regulars, Jetta sadly is near the end. brayshaw is a plodder. Vineys role should be replaced with Harmes. Without the bullocking Viney is a rover to ther best ruckman in the league, Whoever is at his feet should be starring. Old school second rover for mine. Neil-Bullen far too happy with himself. It just goes on and on. Loved Petraccas game but to hear him say the BLues are a really good team is ridiculous. Sire say they gave hard competition, but a good team. No.

    Goodwin is simply not up to it...

    Weideman for Jackson. I'm not critical of Jackson but he's raw and will take time. Weid has to be ahead of him at this point.

    Pickett for ANB.

    OMac for Smith

    Also need to find a way to get vandenBerg in.

    Agree, except I'd keep Jacko in

    Hear you on both Weid and Jackson. Like to get Jackson at least two to three games. Agree on OMac and Pickett. VDB for Melksham maybe. 

    The good news is that Weid reportedly kicked 5 or 6 goals in the scratch match. The bad news is so did Brown apparently.

    melksham and t mac on thin ice

    at this stage i think - on the g - you need some tall targets to kick to, so i'd give lj a reprieve this week

    IN: weed, o mac
    OUT: jones, smith

    sad to see nate go out like he is - looks a shadow of his former self

    anb and hunt did their roles; pickett will need to wait, silly boy

    I dont see why we can't play all 3 of Jackson, McDonald and Weideman.

    Yet instead of having a skinny half forward flanker at full forward why not stick Weid or McDonald down there instead. Use Jacko as the backup ruckman, and leave Weid and McDonald as genuine key forwards.

    Jackson showed there is something to work with. Feel like that more game time and experience the better.

    Gotta get Kossi and Vanders in there as well.

    Gee I'm glad Smith is in for Omac   oh [censored]

    We need Fritsch to play forward   oh [censored]

    Melksham back in makes the forward line better   oh [censored]

    Great to see Jacko in for trade bait Weid   oh [censored]

    Is Petty injured? He looked okay 

    yes

    Changes:

    Need a tall back, not a brainless kangaroo.  That means OMac in for Smith.

    Weid to come in to provide a true marking option forward.  Fritsch to hff to deliver.  Kosi in.

    I have trouble dropping Jones, but he is under the pump.  As is Melk.

    Would persist with Jackson.  Nibbler probably for the chop.

    Goody should make a statement.  That was just weak.  A small amount of pressure and the Dees crumbled.  Our ‘speed’ tactic hardly paid off.

    For what it's worth, and I know some people lament him on here, but I would pick Weid before I picked Tmac, at least he gets involved in the play enough to warrant selection.

    Hope Hannan pulled up well after the scratch match. Takes Melskham’s place for mine.

    • 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.
