    They've been doing that for years, umpires never pull them up for it

    It is very fair that the Dogs have Ugle-Hagan still to come in to their side. Very fair indeed.

    Well done AFL on running  a very fair competition with a really cool and fair draft.

    so many errors! from both sides really. 

    Just seems like the physical toll of longer quarters shows up in the skills. I’m sure we’ll be the same.

    Good to see all the rubbish new rule changes made to increase scoring are working out well...

    Watching Howe trudge off the ground looking forlornly at the scoreboard. Warms the heart.

    Let me rephrase,  why do our draftees struggle so much yet the dogs nail every pick. Why does Anthony Scott come in play his role perfectly in his first game after getting recruited a few weeks ago yet our second round pick from a few years ago spargo can't even kick further than 30m

    struck me as a 6 v10 game. Pies dropped a few easy ones and Dogs not that impressive up forward after that first 5-10 minutes.

    Season wise probably a little more upside in the Pies... De Goey couldn't play that badly again.

    I disagree.  Our skills are so poor already, I don't think you will be able to see a difference.  ?

    But the doggies look like a pretty good side this year.  They have a lot of really good mids there, and more who can't get into the side.  Their talls are still a weakness, but not as much as it used to be.

    That is a mis truth and you know it Turner.

    If you can't post the truth better not contribute because you don't rate a player.

    Sorry Turner aplogize sincerely but Elegt makes some outrageous statements mostly because he doesn't like the player or disagrees with the Club.

    Pretty clear that need fwds who can mark & score ., who are ours?

    That's always been the case.

    Fritsch and Jackson and I'm praying to the Gods in Heaven that TMac rediscovers his 2018 form.

    Max can take a mark, kicking is iffy. Petracca will play forward plenty early in the season. He can mark and score

    We've got BB and the Weid on the sidelines. Just need to get them on the park.

    We've got the weapons just need to get them fit and deliver half decent ball and we're a match for most teams.

    You mean like Rivers looking like a 100 game pro in his first season when all other clubs overlooked him in the draft? Or LJ with the potential to be anything, 200cm athletic freak. 

    you win some you lose some in the draft. We have drafted well over the last 4-5 year’s imo

    A player who cannot get on the park is effectively  the worst player on your list.

    Regarding the new 'Stand' rule, I noticed that unless there was a contested mark etc, players either go nowhere near the mark or position themselves on the inside but not on the mark in the place they used to move sideways to. And then wait for the umps to say 'stand'.  The umps never tell them to move to where the actual mark is and then stand.

    Jackson and rivers are both hot and cold, I like them both but all All I wish for is all of our draftees (especially our 1st and 2nd rounders to play their role), seems to often happen in the good teams. You would've seen Henry tonight for the pies who had a mare, I hope jordan has a good crack today

    The old enemy getting beaten warms my heart at any time of the year.  But, especially sweet in Round 1.  Now, the Dees just need to win to make it all perfect!!

    • 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.

      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.
