Watched the saints game live streamed as I had a mate playing.

They looked bloody good. Their recruits again are going to big factors for them this. Can easily see them pushing top 4.

Jack Higgins was close to BOG and Mason Wood kicked 4. Chip Frawley also played a pretty solid game and looks set to add further strength to their defence. 

Butler and Higgins are going to create some serious chaos up forward.

Their ruthless recruiting for the past two years is paying off.

I read the other day they are the oldest list in the competition, even older than Geelong. They have certainly primed themselves for an immediate crack at it.

I also rate Ratten very highly. I personally would have loved him to take over post Roos, but it wasn't to be.


Tiny sample space but the scores appear up. None of this rubbish 60-42 games that blighted 2020.

Hoping the 98-83 Hawks v Dogs score from yeaterday is the norm for 2021.

Losing teams should be managing at least 75 points a game IMO.

North won't have much competition for the spoon you wouldn't think. Neeld-like years coming up for them

Agreed. They’ve traded for the now with regards to their last 2 off seasons and so far so good for them. They’ve got a clear strategy of trading for players that will have an immediate impact on them and it paid dividends for them last year.

You could argue we have tried to do that too - but alas they just get injured

They are very reliant on their senior core. Apparently Goldstein and Cunnington didn’t play? Saints had plenty out too but it affects weaker teams much more. I doubt they are that (Neeld) bad

Essendon

i watched 5-10 minutes of the kangas-aints clash...i don't think north hit a single target by hand or foot in that time period, and dom tyson was caught cold holding the ball

saints' ball movement was slick and precise but they were under a scintilla of pressure

Unfortunately Dom Tyson was quiet bad. His ball use has gotten far worse. Really feel for the lad as he was a favourite of mine. But he'll be lucky to string 10 games this year.

Really sad how much he's diminished over the last few years.

Actually pretty much north’s entire first choice midfield was out

not talking just about this practice match.  they won 3 games last year, including losing 14 from the last 15.

traded out their best player/mid and best fwd. not sure how they will kick a goal. their list is horrible. Stevenson won't make much difference, he was a flash in the pan

 

I've heard from a mate that Geelong aren't manning the mark in certain parts of the ground. Instead they are remaining 5m behind the mark to allow them flexibility to move sideways.

Teams will quickly learn what other teams are doing and either copy or adjust. I guess practice matches are a good time to try out tactics like Geelong are doing. Good on them for thinking outside the box.

  • 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

    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.
