Haven’t heard much lately about what the leftover players are doing while the team’s playing. Is it all too hard with the compacted fixture?

    Egan’s standouts from Round 11 practice match

    So 12 Demons plus a Kangaroo joined forces to take on St Kilda plus 2 Kangaroos in a 12 v 12 match.

    Highlights -

    • Braydon Preuss in his first game back (explains why he wasn't really an option for Saturday's game) dominated around the hit-outs.

    • Mitch Brown scored five of his side’s nine goals.

    • The delivery inside 50 allowed Brown to do his best work.

    • Jayden Hunt was excellent – presented at the ball really well.

    • Joel Smith was probably the other standout down back in the wet conditions.

    • There's also an update on some of Melbourne’s other young prospects in 2020.

    No mention of Baker or Dunkley. Are they in the hub?

    Good question!

    I was happy to hear that Hunt was delivering the ball well into the F50 (to Brown), as I've always imagined his spot to be high Forward Flank or wing if he can learn to use his pace an deliver to lead up forwards on the burst.

    Sounds like they are developing him to play that role, and he's coming along.

    Bedford has had quite the fall from grace after an excellent pre-season, round 1 start and a decent game. To my knowledge, he's not been named Emergency and hasn't genuinely come into the selection discussion despite some forward line injuries.

    Egan is pretty glowing on the depth on our list. Hopefully he is right and it is not all propaganda.

    Agreed. Think Hunt should be retained due to versatility and that he can offer something going forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • 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.
