With the shortened time off and the fact the whole list was in WA, I was wondering if anyone had any news regarding off season surgeries that might impact next year?

    Steven May has that 6cm tear in his hamstring he needs to recuperate from.

    Hopefully, he will take it easy and let it fully heal before getting back into full training in the Pre-Season.

    I'm recovering exceedingly well from the damage to my psyche from 57 years of losing

    The way we smashed our way through finals, I feel there are few players carrying major injuries.  Given the short break this should put us in a great position to rest the players and get them ready for round 1.  I would be cautious with the kids and the oldies. Rivers/Kozzi/Jackson, give them a big rest.   then May, Gawn etc.  but the majority of the list are in the sweet spot of big hardened bodies but still young

    Is that worse than an Oedipus Complex?

    Given our age demographic, group booking at The Royal Children's?

    Serious one: Christian Salem's apparent groin issues? (don't know if these are intervention or rest matters)

    His form peaked in finals, the byes helped him a ton. Should just be rest I reckon?

    I'm guessing he's sticking strictly to the nightclub and alcohol treatment in Perth.

    To hell with that. Now he has retired, he’s gotta get to work on producing even more potential father/daughters/sons

    I expect Clarrie's in the shoulder surgery queue

    Does he get them done every off season? 

    But really I haven’t seen any of our players post anything on their socials other than enjoying their off season. May is still away playing golf. The WA boys are off doing gym work and enjoying the sunsets. Jacko did mention on the Gus and Gawny podcast that he needs to have wisdom teeth removed so the boy is in for a lot of dental work.

    • 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.
