After his start to this year, no way.

He will be playing Saturday night, unless a mystery injury, but then he wouldn't be playing for Casey either.

I think he was referring to Tom Sparrow

    Hearing Weid not in.

    If fit, surely May Fritsch and Weideman.

    Cannot go into Sat nights game with same forward line as last week.

    We'd be mauled.

    If Weids or TMac  is a bust replace him with BBrown in R7 ..Melb have options.

    Really hope Weideman plays to be honest. He’s the future up forward for us along with Jacko

    That would be amazing after 7 goals for Casey and M. Brown not training and injured.

    Red, he wasn’t at the Captain’s Run, and my understanding is that he’ll be playing at the Punt Road end of Yarra Park tomorrow.

    Perhaps, but maybe he was with the group today as backup for Fritsch, and Fritsch has come through today’s run?

    Think there's a few wires getting crossed. I believe people are talking about Tom Sparrow.

    There's photos of TMac and Lever with their kids at training today, looks like TMac trained.

    I’m going BBB over Weideman at this stage.

    I do see room for them both at some stage.

    Brown is a  proven gun forward. Weid is a kid with potential who time to shine has arrived. Only one of them has a question mark over them. BBB gets the nod for me.

    Is there any info from training? There does not seem to have been any training threads for weeks.

    Its hard to know which are training days now that the season has started.

     

    Anyone know when/where training/captain's run are?

    It's such a nice change for the Dees to be playing for the "now" and not the future.

    I am guessing Weideman would have been in if Fritsch didn't come up. 

    Going for the team that have got us to 5-0. Fair enough too.

    We are very settled. The Dogs are 5-0 and they made 6 changes

    You seem pretty sure of yourself. Will keep this in mind when the teams are announced. My opinion is the weed will play and Fritsch won't.

    Coaches have long memories.

    The last time North won anything that saw them on the front page it was probably their Rnd 11, 2019 sterling win by 6 goals against the 'about to be dual premiers', the Tiges.

    BB kicked 5 big ones.

    Incredible, and most changes are omissions

    Would have been interesting hearing the chat between coaches and Weid.

    I reckon they would have been telling him since day one, we need you to dominate a game in the VFL.

    He finally does it and gets told it's not enough right now.

    I would say that melksham and jones know they are under the pump to play well. 
    T Mac is in the same boat. 
    LJ less so as he plays ruck and I do it think the club wants weed or brown in the ruck. although weed could possibly play LJs role, just not with as much athleticism 

    LJ is starting to hold his own in the ruck, even winning a few contests now.  Is also very handy at ground level competing well.

    I could be wrong (a regular thing!) but i can't see how he would be anywhere near the 'Ins / Outs' radar or discussion at this stage.

    Totally agree and I love what LJ is doing. I am not advocating he be dropped at all, I was more looking at how we would get weed and brown in the side, and I was saying if LJ was injured, that weed could play his role.

    Very much off topic but North are in WA which may very well be in lockdown shortly.

    Guess who plays North next week?

    Sounds like it will be a 3 day lockdown. I suggest North will travel straight down to Tassie from WA and our game should go ahead as scheduled. 

    Also [censored] Covid and the endless [censored] coming out of these returned travellers and these quarantine hotels. 18 months later and we still can't get it right.

    I suspect not.

    He's played 7 quarters of competitive football coming back from a significant layoff.  

    Their conversations would have been about managing him, getting his body right and getting him back out there with a few games under his belt.

    Do they have direct flights? I always thought they had to fly back to Melbs then to Tassie.

     

    Also I know i say it every week but this is ridiculous to wait for the teams to come out, Friday and Sat should be released on Thursday at a min and Sunday games on a Friday.

    Would suggest it's more about if the Freo Roos game even goes ahead and how that then impacts the next round of games.

    • 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.
