The expectations on BB are pretty unrealistic if you ask me 

The guy hasn't really done enough to genuinely deserve a call up (no idea if he's been training the house down) but his Casey form has been so so IMHO

Am I against giving him a chance - not really because at the very least he may attract their best defender. However anyone expecting him to have a big influence on the result and kick more than 1 or 2 goals is being very very optimistic / unrealistic

 

I agree with this, I'll be chuffed if he presents well, clunks a few and kicks 1 or 2.

Our biggest losing margin was 17, so if he kicks 1 or 2 (being deliveries that presumably would have sailed over the heads of some of the shorter guys), we are already pretty much there - all we need is more consistent 4 qtr intensity, and the other guys to convert.

Something else people don't realise is, Ben Brown is a 100% game time player. He was down in game time in his first 3 games, despite managing 5 goals and an assist. Clearly wasn't fully right.

He saves rotations and keeps the mids fresh. He'll kick at least 5 goals, and we'll run over the top of them big time in the last quarter.

Big Bad Bustling Beautiful Ben Brown is BACK!

BBBBBB!!!

I actually agree. Five would be highly unlikely.

What I am hoping for is that rather than the oppo defence dancing the ball out so easily., bbb will take tge odd big grab or bring it to ground for our smalls. I also hope that unlike the last two games Fritta and Tmac will have less pressure on them, enabling them to impact the scoreboard more.

But, you never know what a proven star( and he is a star) can do, fit or unfit , in form or out of. He is certainly a smokey and woe the oppo team thay doesnt see him as a threat.

His height alone,   the way we have been bombing it fwd for someone like Spargo to take a mark, makes me sigh with relief.

And that having said, if by chance he does boot five, then our season certainly looks more promising.

Either way, his inclusion is an improvement on last weeks fwd line and the week before.

Things to do this game

1 - Max ruck 80% of the game, he is the best ruckman in the league.  Jackson will get there but it's time for Max to take his position back

2 - do away with the Hollywood handballs that have crept back in

3 - look for a leading fwd, if it's not on kick in the air to BB advantage, allow him to bring it to ground.

4 - get back over the mark, been a few kicks touched which has ruined a passage of play

5 - Trac kick to advantage don't try pin point,  love everything he does but the past few weeks he has looked to bullet passes in rather than lay them out in front. Could be due to no talls in the fwd line

Yes, Max is .... but we seem to get a lot more clearances when LJ is rucking.

Yep this is the 10 goal Reel.  Draws plenty of frees which for us is super rare up forward.  Every extra goal counts whether the free is there or it isn't.

Check the last goal.  Would love to see Tracc break from the center and kick to BB's favoured side like Higgins here.  And others...Clarry, Harmes, Viney!...

When you start hitting a KF up like this on a regular basis it also frees up our other forwards when their player peels off to double team etc. Throws the whole opposition defence out and puts doubt in their mind.  We are way too predictable and easy to defend without a KF target playing deep and doubling back on transition as BB tends to read and do so well here.  He knows when to hold his Depth.

Will also mean Macca gets the opp's 2nd best tall which might help him out as well.

I must say I was a bit surprised to see him getting a few crumbing goals - always seemed to me to be a mark / free and set shot sort of forward.   

Good luck to him - and the final scoreline (in our favour) from that night would be more than handy.   Port looked (only saw the BB highlights) to be very dispirited.  (Where were the two teams on the ladder at that time?)

Need kozzzy to ignite.  He’s one of our key scoring options and we will need him v power to kick 3-4 goals imv.  

It’s nice when a plan comes together.  He needs a double shot of “just go for it”.  When he goes,he’s dynamic. 
Kozzzzzzy magic !!!!!!!!!!

  • 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.
