I am another who thinks the old traditional GF replay to kick start the season, sick of waiting for first game of year just to have to sit through another Carlton [censored] show

 

No. We need to play Gold Coast or GW$

Fill the MCG with Demons. 



We can Play Footscray in Round 2-3

Round 1 after winning the flag is big enough without needing the dogs as an opponent.

I don't give a rats who we play actually, once I am there!

 

We'll get a decent crown anyway in rd 1. Might as well make it a celebrations and get off to a good start against a lowly team .

Let's use a replay of the GF to draw a big crowd later when we're up and running and the crowds need a boost,

 

I’d rather ease into it, just make it another game. Not a ‘Grand Final’ replay or a team like the Cats who the media are trying to make out we have some big rivalry with.

Yep, I'm not a fan at all of requesting to play Footscray in Round 1.

I feel its not really at all humble unfurling the flag in their faces, in fact it could make the difference given how close some teams are in terms of mental application.

We talk about 'respecting' our opponents, well this isn't it for mine.

I don't think we should bite off more than we can chew.

 

 

Spot on.  We're about respecting others as a club and having the Dogs is downright rude.

In the past the Tiges have done it on a hursday night, not all club unfurl in Round 1. (Eagles in 2019 the most recent, Hawks in 2016)

No real pattern, except the dogs did it on a sunday arvo at 3.20 which I like the sound of.   Plenty of kids should have the opportunity to go. Not a night game please.

Let’s play the Poos. For the last 15 years, there’s been something weirdly satisfying about watching Carlton have their hopes, dreams and expectations extinguished on the first day of the season. Let this not be another tradition that is trashed.

They could unfurl the flag while playing freed from desire.

The Poos? First thought typo, must be the Roos, no maybe the Poos & Wees (Hawks). But no, the Blues, don't get me wrong I hate them (Barassi, Wells, Spalding, McLean, O'Mac) well maybe not the last 2, but really do we want them first up? I want Geelong at the G

Not best for poor old Uncle Bitter returning to The Manor at around midnight [censored] !!

I don’t think we’re the home team for either of the queens bday or Anzac eve games are we?

if that’s the case - the season opener could be the last two premiers playing each other….Dees v Tiges…. or if that doesn’t fly

dees v pies to cash in on not being the home team for 2 of our blockbusters next year…..

Round 2. The premiers shouldn't unfurl the flag agains the team they beat - it's bad form.

Give the wooden spooner a chance to claim the ultimate scalp, or the Premier to get the dream start in front of a home crowd.

Edited by Chook


It won't be Collingwood or Richmond - we'll only get them once in 2022! 😄

Why does there have to be a big deal made of it? Why can’t we just play whomever, wherever.

  • 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.

  • 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.
