May takes Naughton.

Should Tomlinson take Bruce or should it be Lever?

Both Tomlinson and Bruce haven't been in form but Bruce does have the ability to turn it on against us.

What should we do?

ย 

If Wallis plays out of the square May might go to him. Lever is prob better for Naughton. Gotta make sure they canโ€™t move it as easily as they did into their f50 and hopefully that negates most of the difficulties our defence will have.

May to Naughton, Tomo to Bruce and I reckon Pig will get Wallis mate.

I'd say May would go to Naughton.ย  He is their number one forward and May is our number one backman.ย ย 

Tomlinson would then go to Bruce, and then Lever can zone off from there.ย ย 

Their forward line certainly looked more potent on the weekend, but that can be attributed to the massive turd the Crows dumped up there more than anything else.ย  Naughton certainly helps but our defence has been sublime for quite some time now.ย  I think we can more than handle them.

ย 

Doubt Bruce comes in, he's been pretty ordinary and a week off would not seem enough. Unless they bring him in to make our defenders defend.

Naughton is a beauty. May will have the speed, but not sure we have anyone who has the aerial agility for him.

Not sure the dogs will play like they did two weeks in a row

Be that as it may Bruce always kicks a couple of goals on us.ย 

2015: 1.1ย & 1.0

2016: 3.0 & 2.0

2017: 1.0 & 1.1

2019: 2.0 & 4.0

Wouldn't be playing Tomlinson.ย 

I think Bruce will come back. They didn't have a second ruck yesterday, rucking Dunkley and Macrae at times.

There was a report English rolled his ankle. If he's not 100% fit, they're taking a big risk rucking him and some midfielders against Preuss or, worse for them, Gawn.

Bruce has looked slow, disinterested and out of shape this season...probably pencil him in for a bag a 6 this week then

Aside from one six goal game against the struggling Kangas, Bruce has been dreadful this year. You wouldn't think there'd be much chance ofย Bruce comingย into a team that kicked 110+ points yesterday.

His only shot might depend on the fitness of English whoย rolled his ankle at the end of yesterday's game and may not be 100% for this weekend.ย I think Macrae was rucking for them at times yesterday, so they could definitelyย use some extra assistance in that department.


Wallis isย one who is having a small purple patch. Plays like Hunt.. in front and chest marks with decent accuracy.

Best prevention strategy.... good zone defence at 35 -45 metre mark.

That was my recollection as well.

Forgot about Hibberd.

Until yesterday Wallis has been their best forward, and watching it and hearing what they were saying May certainly would suit but I reckon he will play further up than May would want. Iโ€™d be happy with May on either as I think both are dangerous. Wallis should have had 3-5 yesterday

May has to take Naughton.

Bruce is terrible. If he plays, I'd suggest Hibbert.

Wallace is more problematic. Perhaps Lockart would get the first crack at him. If he gets off the leash, then perhaps Harmes, then Hibbert?


since when did Tomlinson become a defender? not sure why his name is even being mentioned to be honest.

There are players that just like playing against us and Bruce has been that in the past, having said that the defensive structure is working at the moment so I think you back Tomlinson in.ย 

Maybe instead of one of their cutting us to shreds itโ€™ll be one of our big lads getting a bag.ย

Do you watch the games? Heโ€™s played CHB for the last 3 games.ย

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
