I think Dusty could be the difference here, he loves a big occasion and his 250th is fairly significant.

Love him or loathe him, he is a very, very good footballer.

If nothing else, it's a good chance for our guys to experience finals like atmosphere and learn from it

    I see this game as a free hit in a lot of ways, number one most important thing is to stay with them deep into the match.

    Above to me will be the 'fascinating' part of the game if it turns out this way.

    According to The Age defence article this morning, when comparing Dees and Tiges,both teams rank No. 1 for final 1/4 efforts.

    Both have won all 5 last 1/4's 

    If its close both will think they have a chance - which will be true in fact.

    I hope we have a very combative game.

    Hit them all hard, give them no space, play angry.

    Make it a we are here moment, great opportunity to set us as the team to beat.

    Tigers by 4 goals.

    We are not at that level yet.

    The Tigers level of 2019 or 2020 was great, apart from the last 3 quarters of football, This Year 2021 Tigers are not near that level either. (Pardon my english.)  For most of this year they have been lower 8 level,  I hope they have been drinking their bath water more the we have been splashing in ours.

    I would happily concede them the last quarter as long as we win the game.

    This is the litmus test game so far (as was the Geelong and hawks games at the time...)

    Think our defence is solid, and provided we apply it well in the midfield we can hold the [censored] head forwards in Lynch and Riewoldt.  Their small forwards may get involved, but we can and should ensure that they get no easy possessions.  They dont like their own medicine so this will be the basis of success.

    Next, we need to win the midfield.  Allowing the ball too often to be in their half is a recipe for disaster - the more we can create and win contests the better off we will be.  In addition, stopping half back run through intense pressure will stifle their ability to move the ball.  Gotta be hard at it here.

    A great contest, with us finding enough avenues to goal and responding to repeated efforts of the Tigers (and their mates the maggots) to take a 24 point win.

    We need to bring energy and intensity for 4 qrtrs. Forward pressure is the key, so last week's level of effort is not going to cut it. 

    Do or die Demons... Dig deep.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • 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.
