    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: 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.
