Everyone was better

even Jack Vineys improvement from the GC game to the rest of the season was massive.

Wonder if he was told that if he kept trying to break tackles instead of setting clarry or Trak loose he would lose his spot (no matter how much Goody loves him). Only mistake I can remember from him in a fantastic finals series was his kick deep inside 50 in the second quarter of the GF to   no Dees and 3 dogs.

    Kozzy for me, went from 7.13 goals last year to 40.28 this year!  Outstanding for any small forward let alone a 19yo one. 

    Gonna be a fan fav for a long time! 

    Jackson not far behind and Petty was excellent too.

    Harrison Petty for me, he fitted into the back 6 like a duck to water.

    The whole team has improved from that scrappy first game of the year against Freo.

    At  the business end starting in round 23 I have seen the most improvement in Tom Sparrow. Touted pre draft as Dangerfield like with his pace and strength he has gone form strength to strength, he is strong, quick and knows how to kick a goal. He is no longer the first one you think off to drop and has gone past Jones and now Melksham and is adding great depth to an already formidable midfield.

    Jackson deserves a mention because he is now clunking his marks and has so many strings to his bow.

    Just so many.. Wouldn't like to be the one to decide! As others have said though, Kozzy & Fritsch have improved immensley, Petty is a lock down back now, Gawn improved his tap-outs (less 'clever' to effective), Oliver running out of congestion, Angus doing Angus things (in a good way), ANB setting us up as the connector....Goodwin.

    Most improved…. Kicking

    a working forward line and goals to points ratio

    all timed perfectly to peak for the finals

    I think the bottom 4-6 players as a unit have all improved but the one player I noticed yelling at much less was ANB 😀 so he takes the cake.

    Most improved. Basically the whole team that played on GF day (incl Jordon) plus Hunt and Tomlinson 

    Top 3 

    Third place. Jayden Hunt. Showed real steel and attack from half back.  Was back to his 2016-17 form  

    Most improved runner up.  Kozzzy Pickett. Went from the potential to be, to being a dangerous small forward. 

    Most improved Winner. Most improved. Bailey Fritsch. 60 goals. Great year. Accuracy was the key.

    Everyone makes a good case here. 
     

    I’ll nominate Tomlinson. Absolutely [censored] myself when he went down. Would never have thought that would be the case. 
     

    Let’s get him a medal. 

  • Quote

    I watch the after match celebrations and Pickett tried to give his medal to Neville Jetta but he refused the gesture, which make Pickett the most selfless.

    • 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.
