    It's party time again for the key forwards. Ben Brown will kick bags of goals for us

    I was referring to the kangas. Collingwood are still a dangerous team and no easy beats.

    Ah right.  Missed the thread sequence sorry

    A decent game this between the Crows and the Suns. Both teams have improved a lot. Adelaide will be tough to beat when we play them over there.

    Both teams are ‘full effort’ sides much more so than they have been in recent seasons 

    Still reckon they will both by bottom six at the end of the year tho

    GC are close to being a very good side, but they keep getting serious injuries

    Suns are young and brittle. Crows too reliant on a resurgent Texan. 
    Both teams can’t sustain it for 4 quarters vs good teams.
    We should have the measure of both.

    ”should...” I know.

    What was the deal with us and Ben King again?  He's one amazing prospect and delivering the goods a fair chunk of the time.  Lovely kick also

    The Suns bomb it to the same spot far too often and too many are going up for the mark also.  Remind you of anyone recently?

    I thaught that was a dreadful game. Neither side knew how to properly attack with the ball ( especially GC ). Adelaide were able to run off the poor decision making by GC when going forward and capitilise with their disorganised defence.

    hm, i'd say their bottom six are pretty much all below even being 'good, ordinary' players

    Ouch, I just opened the AFL app to see what happened. This could be the beginning of the end for North if they aren’t careful. 

    They’ve almost certainly lost the Good Friday game for next year, they will be a terrible team for at least the next couple of years and after pushing so hard for it you can’t put up such an insipid performance. 

    We’ve been there, it really sucks. 

    They'll keep good Friday if they get a crowd (& TV), the score isn't as important. but like when people were talking about taking Queens birthday off us, we always got a good crowd even when crap.

    There is also the another game on the same day now, so it is not the only focus, which will help them retain it. 

    In saying all that, a crowd of 28k is not good for a public holiday Friday.

    I just want to say that Collingwood should be ashamed of themselves.  More than usual, that is.  61 Hitouts to 4.  24 to advantage vs 1.  With that sort of dominance out of the middle they should have been all over Brisbane, but they barely won the clearances and they utterly failed to capitalise on them.

    Its the same Suns just a slightly improved one.  They come out of the blocks looking pretty decent and fresh early but in the end they're mostly a meat & potatoes club with a sprinkling of talent.  The bulk just aren't up to the contest even against the mediocre teams.

    Good effort but in the end they lose too many crucial one on ones, especially through the middle, while continuing to bomb it long to the same spots about 30 to 40 out from goal making it too easy for the opp to defend inside 50.

    Over a decade of plowing millions of dollars in to this mob and they still haven't won a match in Adelaide.  What a rediculous waste of resourcez and time by Gil & Co.  Would rather see a Tassie team in any day for GWS & GC.  Tassie Govt should follow through with their threat to cancel the Hawks & North arrangement if the AFL doesn't come to the party and do us all a favour.

    Suns are still a bit too reliant on their older/reject players like Greenwood, Ellis, Witts, Harbrow, etc.

    Their midfield still needs work and depth and they need to wait two or three years for King and Lukosius to come on. Dew is doing a good job with them though.

    I am not sure who the main commentator for the adelaide/suns clash is ( maybe that Dwayne Russell type ) but every time that blinking Walker goes near the ball he has absolute multiples. He is worse than Mcevany.

    For the Suns to really improve they’re just so reliant on Rowell being healthy. He’s a gun and it’s a travesty to not see him on the park as often as his talent should allow.

    They used to destroy us when we were a basket case.  Didnt they beat us by 130  something points around 2012?   Their supporters loved it, openly mocked us.

    Hope they're even worse than what they have shown today the next decade.  Thought they will be in Tassie long before that could happen.

    Round 18 2013, 122 points, same venue.

    And didn't they win a ridiculous number of games against us in a row?  Something like 18?  One of the last "hoodoos" we had to break was beating them.

    North can suffer in their jocks as far as I'm concerned.

    I will say that towards us North fans had a ridiculous amount of arrogance for a team that has achieved exactly nothing in the last 20 years.

    • 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.
