    Not bloody wrong. These teams are always so hard. Ive always thought most people get caught picking a "these are the best 22 players for the year, let's fit them in a side" vs "best by position" 

     

    4 pure midfielders on the bench for example

    How May continues to be underestimated by the whole footy community is amazing to me. Current form (i.e. last 18 months), at least as good as Rance in his prime.

    I know this is unofficial but surely May couldn’t miss out again this year.

    Pretty funny that the reaction to this has been "Not enough Demons". I remember the days when even one Demon in a mock squad of 40 would get me excited!

    I've been following this column throughout the year and for what it's worth, I think the inclusions of Salem and Fritsch are a bit reactive based on their last 2 games. I'd also agree with their assessment that May is outside the team for the moment - he essentially missed 2 whole games with the injury and has had 1 or 2 quiet-ish games. Otherwise, it's hard to argue with the other selections. Let's see if we can keep this up...

    Agreed regarding Salem and Fritta. I would have Lever, May, Max, Langdon, Trac, and Oliver. Yes he’s missed a couple of games, I think he had a quiet against North, what was the other one?

    Agree re Fritsch, but Salem is sixth in the AFL Coaches Award (ahead of both Oliver and Petracca).

    He is the number 1 ranked small forward on champion data in 2021

    According to Gerard Healy, Kozzie is the no. 1 , and the no. 2 and no. 3 small forwards have the same name - Daylight!

    I reckon his game against the Giants was good without being great. He was mismatched against Greene for some of the night, who almost broke the game open. And even against the Tigers, he didn't dominate; he was lucky that Lynch missed a few easy goals. That's not to say he's not having a good season, but All Australian demands consistent excellence.

    May very stiff.

    Salem hasn’t just had a good couple of weeks. His season has been top notch. Of all Melbourne players who deserve a spot in the side right now he’d be top 3.

    You couldn't be more wrong with Salo Look at the Coaches awards  etc And votes in the papers and he is in the top 20 in all.

    Best season by far and consistent.

    Fritta (and Kossie )  are worthy averaging 3 and 2 goals per game.and being super consistent,.

    All the others pick themselves.

    Jake Niall on the Age Footy Podcast after our Richmond win said we had the best list in the SFL and he is not far wrong.

    Add Kossie May Viney Jacko Brayshaw Tmac Rivers Hibbo Tomlinson BBB and you have at least 8/9 A graders and the rest are B+ graders or above. 

    And most are  in career best form and fitness. 
    Long may it continue.

    Salem has been bloody magnificent all year. A revelation actually, compared to his previous output.

    A walk up start for an A.A half back spot.

    Started to come good about Round 13/14 in the hub last season.

    Realized  he could no longer Just one pace medium and do a funky 25m kick yo be valuable to the team.

    Started impacting game with pace and urgency plus 45/50m lucks That still  found teammates!!!

    Saw it with my own eyes vs GWS when he starred at the Gabba with Langers and Spargo and Rivers on the Members side of the ground  getting us up by 4 pts. In that epic game.

    Ever since has been  A standard and I prefuctedvtjis in my posts pre season as one of our improvements along with Spargsy and Tommo down back.

    Also said that Jacko Kossie and Riv had huge upside in their second year!

    Some had criticised this view but I stood firm on our improvement Which I think has even surpassed my expectations!

    Lets hope it's a permanent standard as we all love the stars shining each week plus the contract signingS of our Mostly A and a couple of B+ graders this season 

    Long may it live well beyond 2021!!!

    • 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.
