Going to get a good old belting today. Just not top 2 or top 4 material for that matter. Yes defence is great but we are really poor in attacking. 
 

remember the Giants have many starting 22 injuries while we are just about full squad. 

Agreed not even close to top 4 at the moment and with a tough run home I think we are done, no doubt we finish 5th and cop a belting from the tigers

Disgusting performance. Viney has been very poor and absolutely no forward line thanks to the selectors.

Viney not up to it. But hes not alone.

If we dont work out our fwd line soon we will be lucky to be top four.

But its not like nobody has not been saying this which makes it so frustrating.

 

Edited by leave it to deever

Statistically we're not doing too badly.

How we *look* is a different story. TMacs checkside kick from 50 out preceded three GWS goals. Our pressure is very poor. But we are defending okay.

Not out of reach. Unlikely, but not impossible. Let's back them in. Our Brisbane game looked ominous at half time.

What are we doing at training that results in this crap on game day?

Sculling bathwater.

    Good call. Game over now.

    Last week bombers weren't  good enough. Gws are class and we're a 5 to 8th team.  Selection forward strategy non existent. 

    Its a pretty even comp as we all know there are no easy games and when your not on 100% you will be punished 

    Hopefully second half is a very different story 

    Reality bus is never far away

    WTF was that from Harmes??

    I would applaud anyone who takes out that [censored] stain of a human Mumford.

    I’ve counted 6 free kicks directly from the Centre bounce to the Giants.

    We've lost it in there

    Can't get a sniff, and any touch is a fumble. They're cleaner

    Lazy performance from our midfielders, and terrible non-Brown selection by the coaching panel has us in a situation where we just cannot score, regardless of how good our defensive running, structure and personnel are.

    How about we put Max forward 80/20 and Jacko rucks 80/20.

    Coz boy it ain’t working at the minute

    This. Its not rocket science.

    Max is preyed upon from the umpires. They actively look for the straight arm. 
    mids need to pull finger out and take front position. Frees and clearances will then follow. 

    3 goals a half.    Good footy !!

    Oh. DR.D, you're so negative. Pull your heads in you biased know it alls! The players are playing the way you think. We've lost to Adelaide, Collingwood and now GWS. Say Goodbye to top 4 officially. 

    Poor max he has tried to do everything, he's tacking, getting back in defence getting battered from pillar to post.  Someone help him. He can't do everything


    I don’t understand those begging for Brown. He’d be getting nowhere near it, because we are continually losing the ball at the coal face. Even it up at the contest and then we can see what our forward line looks like.

    Putrid first half. 
    We have lost all our systems and confidence from earlier in the season. 
    can be turned around, but why has it happened 

    Huge Half time for Goodwin

    Still cannot believe Sideshow is not playing

    Harmes is not a smart player.

    Yep, that is why his only spot is  a defensive midfielder.  Needs a run with role.

    • 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.
