Probably no crowd now since they announced new cases in southeast Queensland...

 

Win this and we are ready to launch. I want to believe. 

Looking at the AFL season stats this week interesting to see we are ranked 14th in clearances and 18th in tackles (averages). I thought these areas were our one wood? Maybe our game style has evolved for the better!

We will know early if our improved use of the ball by hand and foot stands up against a quality side. If we revert back to pinball style it will be all over. Hold your nerve boys.

Agree

I'm hopeful, but worried that a sharp Bulldogs midfield will have us revert to sloppy forward movement

 

Super excited for this one, heading in with the family and some friends I am converting to dees. 

Hopefully it's a cracking game which I am expecting it to be. 

Looking forward to watching the off the ball work rate of Langdon live today.

If you can get close enough, please direct some feedback to umpire 31 on my behalf.  He's listed as the Emergency 

Nervous about this one - still expecting the old Melbourne, resting on their laurels, turning up tripe and getting pantsed.

 

Edited to add: It’s easy to get up for the ‘big’ games, but it’s taking care of the Doggies and the Saints which will ultimately make the difference.

Looks like the Dogs will start favourites. In from $2.15 to $1.94 since yesterday. Guessing all to Maxy being out.

 

Wavering on this game.  I expect a 40+ margin  ..  just not sure which way.

 Trac, Oliver, Brayshaw, Viney and Langdon will be too much for the Dogs to handle in the midfield.

Weideman to kick 5, Kozzie, Spargo, Melk 2 each.

Preuss to smash into weak skinny English all day and have him limping by the end of the 3rd quarter.

This is a 'litmus test' game for the Dees, but we have been building, and I'm confident this will continue.  Our fitness will see us home by 3 or 4 goals, in what should be a 'cracker' of a game.

We will smash the dogs today. They might have more depth in the midfield but Petracca, Oliver and Brayshaw are more dynamic and damaging than their top 3 mids. Go Dees!!

Don't underestimate their midfield power. They've been inconsistent this year, but when on song it's right uo their with the best.

Lachie Hunter and Caleb Daniel are red alerts for me. Their run and dash will hurt us if we do not put in the time into them.

Danger game. So [censored] nervous..

Gold Coast area

Mostly sunny. Areas of dust haze during the morning and afternoon. Winds northwesterly 15 to 20 km/h turning westerly 25 to 30 km/h in the morning then increasing to 30 to 45 km/h in the middle of the day.

45km/h is a '2 club wind'.

It's just going to come down to us finishing our work in the forward line. Do that and we win. 


Two pretty evenly matched teams on paper.  Two gun midfields going at it.  Looking forward to it.   Hopefully we see the vs Richmond Dogs against the vs Collingwood Demons.

Totally agree. Would be good to see Fritsch straighten up this week.

Going to be tough kicking conditions

Gatherings have only been restricted on gatherings without COVID safe plans.

I dont know what to feel about todays game. I have tipped us the last 3 weeks, but dont feel so confident today.

A few others have mentioned the Doggies leg speed and i think thats likely to be a fair factor in who wins. Dogs and Saints were my 2 biggest worries as far as being cut up speed wise, so today tells me more about us than last week i reckon.

If we can win, finals are a lock IMO, but i think the Dogs might get over us by a few goals.

Still, GO DEES !!!

The 'conversion' should be complete by the end of the day GCS.

Yeah Im just trying to be positive, dont worry I am [censored] myself too

Still think we win though, am strangely confident despite the [censored] myself part

we beat collingwood when our ruck and midfield were not exactly on fire. Pruess should be the better ruckman today given the doggies stats, and our midfield is unlikely to be having two bad weeks.  I assume the dogs midfield strategy acknowledges they will lose the ruck so have their players ready to pounce on the opposition players when they take the ball to shake it lose.  If we can continue our good form and Tom Mac can add some additional firepower up front then we will win this one.  I just hope they learnt their lesson from last week it is not the number of inside 50's that count its the quality of the delivery and finishing off.

Another 4 quarter effort like last week and we’ll get this done.

Unless their score is larger than ours at the end (channeling @Ethan Tremblay)

 

Toss a coin up for this one. Interesting to see us play a decent side.

I'm looking forward to watching Kozzie Pickett turn it on today.

Clear sunny day on a dry deck. Last time he played in those conditions he turned it on against the Hawks.

  • 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.

    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

    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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’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 wasn’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  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
