i'd still have harmes in ahead of sparrow especially with viney out we really need a presence tackling and speed out of the stoppage and a week in the twos should be plenty for a broken wrist so for me

IN: Petty, Harmes, Chandler

OUT: Tomlinson, Baker, ANB (lay a tackle son its what you're there for)

    Weideman was clearly BOG IMOย 

    Disagree. Number 32 was, in my view, best on ground by a mile.

    Weed was good and worked hard. But he benefited from a woeful defence and the ball coming in under no pressure.

    Missed some gettable shots.

    And frustratingly applied little forward half pressure and I can't recall him laying a tackle.

    Stunned we are brining in Petty. He was awful vs the Hawks. Every time the ball went to him in a contest he looked all at sea.

    Sydneyโ€™s plan will be, kick it to who ever is on Petty. Tmac back and Weid up front should be the go.

    Oh and Harmes in for Baker, Harmes plays Viney role, Brayshaw back to the wing.

    I hear what you're saying regarding Petty but T.Mcdonald is just as shaky in defence so lets go with Petty back and keep Tmac forward where he plays his best footy.

    If you mean Sparrow as BOG then I agree with you.

    if you are saying harmes as the medi-sub (for jones) then not a good idea. harmes needs more game time

    Really want to see Harmes playing. He has skills.

    Tmac, Salem, Lever, Hunt have all stepped up to their best form. Harmes the chance to do likewise.

    ย 

    In Harmes, there is a bit of a tuff-nut against sides that huddle and break. His shepherding work isย seldom seen overtly, but it is classy and effective, creating screens and handballing options for other Demon players. Harmes can use his body well, is difficult to stop when apace with the ball and has what can now be regarded as 'good experience'. It would be great if he could return to form and consistency.ย

    Still struggling with the lack of love for Baker. Have watched the replay twice now and don't see the negativity. I would think his effort in the last qtr; 1 vs 2, makes the coaching team give him a big tick. On re-watching, his disposal was nowhere near as bad as some are saying.

    he was only picked because the more obvious choices played vfl, so brayshaw took viney role and baker to wing

    with brayshaw back to the wing, baker is not a viney replacement

    Look at his decision making or super high lob kicks he does to team mates so opponents have a few years to get to the contest

    He was awful in the first half but to be fair to him really looked a lot more settled in the second. Took good marks, had better positioning, i suspect his first half was nerves getting the better of him.ย

    Agree, but the Hawks donโ€™t have decent forwards, or team really. Sydney are much better and he canโ€™t have gained confidence from his last game then being dropped again.

    Very true Swans are a lot more capable of kicking a winning score than the Hawks. I would hope that Goody and Co wouldโ€™ve said to him that being dropped for May is no reflection on his game. Should he come in now you would imagine he will be in there for a while.ย

    1sr half he was very average but the 2nd half he started working better with back line imo.ย

    I think he will be fine and has been training for this exact situation. Have faith G.ย

    Ok I'll bite, why is Brayshaw back to the wing? Is Viney back in next week?

    • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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.

      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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
