  • Demonland changed the title to Scratch Match vs Pies (14/8/20)
 

Bedford 4 goals you beauty! No mention of Brown, Hannan or Bennell.

 

Oskar Baker exists !!!

Young backman Trent Rivers enjoyed some time up the ground, impressing with his run around the ball, as did Oskar Baker whose pace shone through on the wing.

Rivers is a gun Harmes better find form soon or he will take his place.

So this time it wasn’t necessary to conscript players from other clubs than the Demons and Magpies at their hub at Maroochydore Sports Complex.

Highlights -

• You can’t keep a good big man down. Max Gawn might have been nursing that injured PCL but it didn’t stop him from being one of the goal umpires.

• Melbourne ran away with a convincing 39-point win scoring 12.8.80 to 6.5.41.

• Suspended Alex Neal-Bullen was considered best afield playing up forward (he still has two matches to serve);

• Toby Bedford was lively and did the damage on the scoreboard booting four goals;

• The defence stood strong throughout the game;

• Trent Rivers enjoyed some time up the ground, impressing with his run around the ball;

• Oskar Baker’s pace shone through on the wing;

• Recovering from a broken wrist Corey Wagner played well in the middle unhindered by the protective glove he wore;

• Josh Wagner pushed off half-back to help around the contest;

• Jayden Hunt was the carry over emergency for Melbourne in Round 12.

As mentioned above, no mention made of Brown, Bennell or Hannan or any news on the four injured horsemen - Hore, Petty, Kolo and Nietzchke.

Bloody hell. I’ll take that result this evening thanks very much

Got to dream bigger, F'N'D!

You would hope Baker starts doing something as he’s running out of time for an AFL career.

He's got time he still has another year on his contract.

Ok wasn’t aware of that.

Yes Baker has 2021 under contract but it’s no guarantee.  I’d like to see get a run and I’d take him to FNQ to play either Freo or Swans.  His pace will be handy. 

Watching the doggies on the weekend and an undersized Dunkley spending some significant time in the ruck, I wondered what has happened to Kyle. Don’t believe he’s injured - does anyone have an insight on how he’s going. Thought he showed a little bit despite fitness being well underdone last year in his 5 games and playing largely in the graveyard at HFF in a poor side?

Thanks for the summary.

Nice of Max to show support for team mates.

Anyone know what has become of Nev?

How come Melbourne doesn't provide a write-up about each player? I know they're only scratch matches but still...

The we don’t have as big a budget as the Pies effect?

It’s my understanding that Kyle had a planter fascia injury over Xmas which set him back after working especially hard overseas after the end of last season. 

Would certainly be nervous heading into the end of the year.

  • 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.

  • 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.
