Don't want to get ahead of myself!!!!!!!!

    Cannot miss out on a top four place. But can we now relax?

    Reminds me of 1964. Secured top place after r.17 and then got smashed by doggies in r.18 when it didn't count.

    Good outcome nevertheless.

    Funny way to present the percentages. It's really a domino-effect where if Melbourne plays Geelong then Dogs will play Port.

    It's basically 50/50 that the entire top four will have replays, with the only other factor being if one of them loses BOTH remaining games AND one of the Lions or Swans win both of theirs.

    The top four could actually be locked in for replays by the end of this round because when Melbourne and Geelong play obviously one goes up and the other goes down, resulting in either a 1st/4th or 3rd/2nd split.

    Would be funny to go into that final round game already knowing that we'd be playing the next game as well.

    Just indulging in some even sillier speculation; we could conceivable play Geelong in the final round, the first round of finals, and then in the Grand final again.

    If nothing else, surely that would earn us the right to not have to meet them in 2022. There's only so much Geelong anyone can be expected to put up with.

    We have not won this many games since 1958. We have been this high at the end of the season since 1964. This is our best season I’ve ever seen in my lifetime. This is our time

    So let’s take it one week at a time and smash those Crows this weekend.

    Hey I'm playing 3D chess here and am already formulating our plan for the 2022 Marsh Community Series. A loss in one or both would be catastrophic. They'll probably send us to Broome or Cape York. Damn the AFL.

    If we lose this weekend Marsh Community Series 2022 will be the Suns away in Wuhan, (and we’ll only be allowed to fly in on game day).

    If we ended up playing Geelong in the GF, I'm confident we won't be playing at Kardinia Park/GMHBA Stadium in 2022. The AFL will want any game between us played at the MCG. Especially if full size crowds (remember them?) are allowed.

    Glad we now know via direct experience as a team that we can win there... (as we have done a few times over the last 5 years).

    Definitely not. If all Top 4 teams win this week and then we lose to Cats and Port beats Dogs we play Port in Port. 

    Would not bother me in the slightest.

    Possibly the most bizarre yet funnily possible post of the year.

    I’m not against a Perth hub per se.

    However, if the Eagles make September, I have reservations. They’re at least a four goal better side there.

    I think every club should be hoping the Eagles don't make finals. we can't have their entitled, idiotic supporters spoiling finals with their moronic booing

    Maybe now only  2 goals with the retirement of Margetts.  🙄
     

    But if they are getting done over they could always call on the ⚡️

    I've got a grand final guarantee so would be mortified to have the game played in Perth if we made it that far. We'd have to quarantine for 2 weeks and face extortionate flight prices. Who the hell can afford to take 2 weeks off work in this economic climate? If it definitely can't be played here I'd prefer Adelaide where fans of each side can at least drive there in nine hours and not be captive to price gouging airlines. If the ground holds 10k less than Optus they can add 16% to the cost of the tickets to make up the shortfall in revenue.

    • 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.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
