No Gawn singing of our theme song??

James Harmes had been filming the end of the game; he seemed to get the team pretty excited on the way back in to the rooms.  They appeared to start on the back of his filming to maintain momentum.  Not a great look.  The skipper did not look particulary thrilled with it at first glance

    It looked to just be a mistake. Players all got into the rooms, bit unsure what to do given no one is allowed to put their arms around each other anymore, even though they all tackle each other during the game....

    Storm in a tea cup type stuff.

    It was a strange end as it seemed the players were almost not even going to sing the song given how poor their second half was.

    Where was the team manager.?

    Posters might well be right that it mean nothing but this club has a habit of lot of little issues.

    Organisation...  not players role necessarily,  but surely some staff inside the rooms should be noticing this,  as the players arrive back in.

    Nothing in it. Normally I’d make a big deal about something like this, but honestly, the room situations are all weird, no arms around each other, it was all a bit weird and players didn’t really know what to do. I’ll excuse it this time

    There were no officials in the rooms. Part of the problem

    Relax, they were following Covid guidelines of keeping two arms lengths apart. On that basis Gawn couldn't fit in the room.

    That's very big of you to excuse it, can hear the sigh of relief from the players as I type

    This is just a another Gawn size mountain out of molehill on this forum

    Who gives a flying about what Garr Lyon will say, has to fill air time with some dribble

    No way to really dress this up.

    Its a very poor effort from the players to not wait for their captain.

    Gawn is hard to miss. He’s only 6ft, 9 inches !!! 

  • Quote

    Seriously it was poor.  It was a sign of blokes NOT thinking and reflects the onfield decision making.  Gawns first win as captain and he misses the song !! What was vice captain Viney thinking ??? Simply was not thinking. 
     

    Did anyone think ... where’s Langdon and Tomlinson?  It was a shambles 


    Where was Goody ?  Doesn’t he sing the song now with the players.

    Lyon has Almost played as many finals as every player collectively in our team & ex captain.. I think he knows what good culture is ..

    Yep, much as I dislike these petty criticisms, I have to admit that I thought the celebrations were OTT for a performance that was underwhelming. It was all a bit of a rabble, which reflected on the pitch for half the game.

    We won't win another game for the year, so they were getting as much mileage out of that win as possible.

    It isn't the end of the world that some people are making it to be. It is however a perfect reflection of our club as a whole. Just a bit of a hot mess. 

    How you forget to look for the captain during the team song, the captain who is 8 foot tall with a bushy beard, is really very much in the same mysterious vein of how we can give up a 45 point lead.

    • 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.
