Wouldn't you be better off just wearing your seatbelt to keep the warning sounds off?

No joke. Pretty stupid huh.

    Got it. The dogs beating West Coast has almost cancelled that GWS result out unfortunately, doggies are in the box seat now with an easy run home. The only hope we have is if Freo produce an upset over them in the last round OR us win our last two comfortably, StKilda lose their last two comfortably and we catch them on %. Either way, I don't like our chances. 

    I would almost prefer to miss and the blowtorch be stronger on Goodwin.

    My preference is we make finals, see where how far we go, and sack Goodwin anyways.

    If anyone’s expecting Gold Coast to come to our aid to beat Collingwood in the event that we beat GWS - forget it.

    Wouldn’t it be nice though?

    GC looked good at the start of the year, it’s a shame they’ve dropped off the cliff. I’m sick of them repeatedly doing badly in the competition, it would be something to see them pull it out against the pies. Might well be a moot point by then anyway.

    Would have said the same about Adelaide beating GWS, surely?

    Jeepers, I reckon this is a bit harsh.

    They're 5-1-9 with a percentage of 96.7% with a number of close losses in which they were either the equal of their opponent or the better side (e.g. the Dogs, St Kilda and Essendon games).

    They're not the only club to have been well beaten by Brisbane, either.

    Had even one of those close games gone in GC's favour they'd be just a draw behind us and Carlton.

    They're a mid-table side, not that much worse than us, and on their day are completely capable of beating Collinwood.

    The comment about the repeatedly doing badly was a general one over their journey, I can only think of one year they showed something but faded as well. 

    This year they’ve shown they can play footy and my larger point is that after a good start of building hope it would be a shame if they finished badly again. Which is why it would be great to see them pull it out vs the Pies.

    • 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.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      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.
