You know there’s a pandemic on when they send Collingwood down to Hobart…

Geelong down there this week for the first time ever.

Yet we're there every year, it seems.

 

Good to see the drug cheats get more Friday exposure

Only other palatable game is ours, and we'd be on a six-day break from Queensland, which is both tiring and impossible as we need 7 days for quarantine.

We're flying in and out same day for GC so perhaps they class it as 7 nights rather than 7x24 hours?

It's all confirmed.

 

 

We should be playing on a sunday.

Actually prefer to play on the Saturday for this one.

We need a good 7 or 8 day break ahead of our the last 2 games in VIC after 2 big weeks on the road.

Is that footage of the Eagles in lockdown?

  • Demonland changed the title to FIXTURE: Rd 21 2021

Ideally they'd push our game back to the Sunday, but Fremantle v Brisbane is already on the Sunday and they can't bring that forward to Saturday because Brisbane needs 7 days to quarantine.

So unless they do a double header at Optus next Sunday, we'll be playing the Monday night.

Which isn't ideal, as it will likely mean a six-day break into the Adelaide game the following week, and quite possibly a consecutive six-day break into the Round 23 Geelong game (the AFL may well want that game on a Saturday for TV exposure).

Adelaide will be Sunday afternoon because nobody will care about this game and then Geelong Saturday night for the prime time. Monday isn’t ideal for anyone but I don’t know if they’ll do two games in Perth on the same day. Too hard with telecast given the time difference. 


Is it confirmed that WC have gone back to Perth?

Most likely.

Back to back six day breaks into a crucial Geelong game is going to hurt. 

I assume we will fly back on Monday and then play Adelaide Sunday afternoon.

Monday night hopefully means a smaller hostile crowd, so that's one positive.

That would be a helpful side effect of the Monday night timeslot.

Critical game, this. Win it and we're two-thirds of the way there (just have to beat Adelaide...shudder).

But if we lose, we'll be on a six-day break (but almost really a five-day break, given we don't finish in Perth until 10.40pm Melbourne time) into a must-win game, followed by an almost-certain second straight six-day break as you'd assume the AFL will want our Geelong game on at least a Saturday.


ROUND 21

Friday August 6

Geelong Cats v GWS Giants, GMHBA Stadium (7.50pm)

Saturday August 7

Carlton v Gold Coast Suns, Marvel Stadium (1.45pm)

Richmond v North Melbourne, MCG (4.35pm)

St Kilda v Sydney Swans, Marvel Stadium (7.40pm)

Adelaide Crows v Port Adelaide, Adelaide Oval (7.40pm)

Sunday August 9

Hawthorn v Collingwood, UTAS Stadium (2.10pm)

Western Bulldogs v Essendon, Marvel Stadium (3.20pm)

Fremantle v Brisbane Lions, Optus Stadium (5.10pm)

Monday August 9

West Coast Eagles v Melbourne, Optus Stadium (8.10pm)

Just our luck playing the Eagles when the heat from the blowtorch is on high. 

Also Jaded I know you like a good Doomsday scenario. How about a situation where there are cases in Melbourne forcing us to play Adelaide in South Australia. ?

Geelong have got to be the only team to have profited from COVID.

 

Next Monday night seems like an eternity away. Going to make for a slow week and slow weekend

On the other hand, if WCE had belted Collingwood we'd probably be lamenting our luck in coming up against a team who had found some good form just in time to play us.  MFCSS Rules!

  • 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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.
