Correct historically, but maybe your tense is incorrect. We'll see soon.

"..people called them that..."?

 

My read was the Dogs gave Richmond some ammunition to work with in the second half. The Dogs flooded heavily in the second quarter and were able to rebound and break away easily from defence. To sustain that against the Tigers all game is flirting with danger. 
Hardwick was quick to recognise this at half time and Liam Baker was moved forward in the third and set the tone early with his forward pressure and had a real impact. That got their tails up and the Dogs faced an uphill battle from there, all of a sudden the ball wasn’t escaping the Dogs backline with ease. 
Credit to the Tigers for a brilliant third quarter, it won them the game and they were too good on the night.

 

I don’t watch enough Dogs games to know if it is always the case but Caleb Daniel looked like their most important player. He sets up the play for them and always puts players into better positions. Stats sometimes inflate a player’s importance but his 34 disposals last night at 91%m if anything, undersells him. 
When we play them I’d be putting ANB on him as a hard tag. Take away Daniel and the Bulldogs will struggle

Good to see the AFL continuing last night with their distancing model by leaving great swathes of the upper deck empty.

Expect the same with Pies v Suns today.

Either ANB OR Spargo's clear role will be to HARD tag Caleb Daniel and then escort him to his car after the game, help him put his keys in the ignition and watch him drive of into the sunset

The virus proliferates outside of camera angle. That’s where super spreading  occurs. Didn’t you know? 

Every time Josh Bruce got near the ball did  anyone else think "I cant believe this guy kicked 10 goals in a game?"

That's how bad North Melbourne are by the way.  Ben Brown should be aiming to kick 15 on Sunday.

 

And as for the soft Dogs, how much of their 157% came from their 130 point pounding of a listless North under the Telstra dome roof?

The best 3 teams in the comp are Melbourne, Port and Richmond in that order.

 Naughtons set shot in the last quarter was one of the worst ever.  Kept looking up at the scoreboard.  Not sure what he was distracted by but shows how mentally weak the Dogs are.  Will be very disappointing if we lose to such a soft overrated outfit.

Just making sure the perm looked alright!  He should have been hurrying back and just banging it through, was quite strange considering time left in game.

He was actually checking the vision to admire and make sure his coiffure wasn’t too ruffled.

Gold Coast don't have a proper ruckman today.  This Chris Burgess fella who is named as ruck doesnt even get any hitouts and the kid Graham gets 10-12 per game.  Just what  the hell are they playing at?   Grundy will get 80 hit outs today.

Would love to see a Qld club add a nail to Buckley's coffin after he walked out on the bears/lions/whatevertheywere.

So they are 3x as likely to win against melb than bullies or Wc and 5x vs Richmond?  Shows we have not yet earned any trust in what we are doing.

The odd will get longer as the season goes on. ie if they beat us the other games become pointless. 

Just saw the filths banner on fox. they spelt tonight as tonihgt. What a farce of a club. Wonder how they spell teeth ?

The ruck position is over rated. I don;t remember the exact details but in the game against brisbane Grundy had something like 80% of the hit-outs. The pies still lost 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.

  • 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.
