Or, at the very least, spend more time there.  Not a bad option if you ask me.

Hopefully to bring it to ground for Bedford, Kozzie, etc. His set shots are a worry.

    I love most of the ins, but dropping Brown who has been our best marking target the last 2 weeks is a bit strange.

    I think they picked Preuss to reall try and stretch the Oppo by having he and Gawn rotate deep.

    Brown was horrible against the swans

    We blew our chances against sydney so how many changes are irrelevent. Good to see some pace but why is ANB playing along with Smith. Why is lockhart still out ? Same with Bennell.

    Love the changes this week, a real Hail Mary if ever there was one!!!

    May fortune favor the brave and Preuss kick 5 goals playing out of the goal square!

    Go you good things!

    Absolutely love these changes but can't help thinking it may be a week to late. Still I have wanted to see some real pace in our side and finally it has been delivered. Now boy's don't let this opportunity slip, get out there and run them off their feet.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Clearly Max is going to play a lot of the game up forward. 

    Or Preuss, he’s a much better kick and Max is a much better ruck (when he actually hits it to our blokes)

    Bennell is really on the outer.

    Why, we were lucky to get any games out him of this year,  they need to get him right for the long term.

    That would have to be Smith surely. No Lockhart or Jetta again, unbelievable.

    Appears that way plus Smith must his fav also. Those 2 should have been dropped also along with Fritter and ANB very lucky. It is basically our last chance so just hope this team gets going and wins well and then see what happens against GWS

    Still the worst forward line in the AFL. Re-arranging the deckchairs on the Titanic. Hope I'm wrong.

    Maybe Max will kick a couple, although he'll need about six shots. Which might be what I'll need if we lose again.

    The changes finally will bring some outside dash. I dont mind trialling the two rucks when we dont have another key forward nailing the second spot. At minimum it will remove the focus of double teaming Weid. Melksham surely on notice. I assume he will play midfield time with AVB to cover the loss of Brayshaw in particular.

    Best of luck to Baker and Bedford who I think can give more of what we need with a clear go at it.

    Finally a team with a bit of run. No pressure lads, but there is no time to adjust or build form, just need to hit the ground running.

    • 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.

      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.
