Bowser looks great and Dogga with 4 goals is turning it on.

 

What a difference kicking straight for goal makes!

    Dom Viney.

    That's harsh on Tyson. Don't think that even he got caught that often.

    I do like Viney but he's just trying to do the impossible too often.

    Good job everyone! except Viney you can rot in the 2's forever and Harmes you can do the same if you cant kick easy goals. 


    I’d like to see Koz get around it more. He just needs to get that spring back in his step. When he’s feeling dangerous opposition clubs get so nervous, and it’s great to watch.

    You’re joking right?

    He always got caught holding the ball, always.

    FMD Garry Lyon is a miserable campaigner. Was a great player for us but not convinced at all he's still invested in the club. 

     


    The key to is and always will be tackling pressure.

    Can’t fault much, but Harmes and Viney kill me. 

    Neither has learnt to take the first option and Harmes can’t hit a single target. 

    Really want to see them lift their game, as they should be copping a bake from Goodwin. 

    Loving the forward pressure. Brown’s looked really good and that helps TMac, Fritsch and Jackson get free and hit the scoreboard. Oliver incredible and Lever, Petty and May solid.

    A week is a long time in footy huh. The confidence we’ll be getting from this is very important

    For me I think this is Viney trying to find form. He has been injured and not in the team also trying to find match fitness. What a good opportunity to try and find some of that touch. He is getting the ball and once that confidence comes back he will be the bull he was again!

    Feel quite bad for Viney. He seems so out of place in this team. Doesn't seem to be "one of the boys" and tries to do too much.

    Also getting FAR better looks at goal, looking more shallow and straight as opposed to deep in the pocket.

    Hes an absolute mess of a player.

    Needs to FRO to Casey and learn to play football. This guy will kills us come finals.

    The issue I have is Goodwin is unfortunately too soft to drop him.

    Absolutely spot on comments as usual Dazzle

    I’m not satisfied, half to go and there were bad habits creeping in at the end of the quarter. We have a big opportunity to get some good form today and get some huge confidence. That will all be undone with a mediocre/poor second half.

    Yep spot on. BB50 leading straight rather than 45 degree angles into the pockets....who'd have thought!?

    I'm not denying that but my point was that I didn't see him get caught at the same rate that Viney is today.

    Anyway, Tyson's been out of the team for three years, so let's get back on topic.

    Jones would actually be better than Viney at this point. Smarter with the ball and seems to be more adaptable.

    Magnificent second quarter. That being said, confidence can be a double edged sword.

    Dare and dash are required to open teams up. We have shown plenty of that. It’s manic, relentless and inventive.

    It can also lead teams to unwise and presumptuous disposal. The Fritsch and BBB forward entries are case in point. BBB was right to be dirty on the former for torching him, and then proceeded to lose all moral high ground with that unrealistic shot.

    Dogga is having a day out. The opposition isn’t overly organized, but you can only play against the opponent presented to you. He’s also fixed his kicking from beyond 35 out, which is a credit to him.

    Bowey is a pleasant surprise. I wasn’t big on blooding more newbies leading into September, but he’s shown poise beyond his years.

    Clarry may need to be the medical subbed off alas. He’ll be suffering from leather poisoning. ?

    From now on all Melbourne players have to spend 8 hrs on a plane before each game..

    I can kind of see his point about is it good to be playing in a game like this. I mean today looks cruisy but next week we will come up against the Eagles & it will be a completely different game

    Should see if Geelong are still keen on Viney. Worth asking the question

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • 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.
