No change. We are going too well to make changes, Gillard has replaced Colvin.

 

I’ve been liking Gillard but I think Colvin is still more trustworthy at the contest mostly when the ball is on the deck.

I also think it’s time for Shell Scott to have a rest. Maybe a freshen up does her good. Fitzsimon back in. 

Depending on the opposition and ground and various other factors we could move Sheriff to the wing, Heath back and rotate the mids forward more. But they are options. 

  • Demonland changed the title to CHANGES: AFLW Rd 09 vs Fremantle
 

The only change is for Zanks to untuck her jumper.... it just looks wrong with the high waist shorts and logo elastic band...

Might just be the change she needs to get back to her absolute best

Agree re Scot - she looks old and a bit slow, although still hard at the contest. Since the game is being played at Fremantle, it will be fast and tough, just as the freo/crows game was this week. We will need to be on our game to win, it is fast and furious over there. This week’s game in Perth was the best AFLW game l have seen and at a very high standard, not something you can always say about AFLW. It should suit our style, but we will need to bring our best.


Posted this in the VFLW thread:

Megan Fitzsimon had 19 disposals, 5 clearances, 3 marks and a goal yesterday in VFLW.  Freo are quick so good runners, able tacklers and players with neat skills will be all important next week.  Hope she gets a recall.

@DeeSpencer agree with you that it’s time for Scott to have rest this week.  Gillard is going well and seems more poised with ball in hand vs Gaby, who is more frenzied and unpredictable.  

Lampard worries me.  She has a good kicking action but her passes don’t always end up with a teammate.  Gay took some kick-outs yesterday so Mick may seen this too.  Also Casey Sheriff appeared hestitant at times yesterday and wonder if this was due to her recent concussion.  Next week will be a grind at Freo, very physical so hope she is ok.

I would be very tempted to bring Colvin back in. Also Scott has looked tired and out of pace all season.

 

I also would like to see FItzsimon back in the team. No issue with a young player getting dropped back to VFL level to spend more time on the ground, but I think she is best 21 at this point. Either Parry or Scott can come out.

I have been impressed by Colvin this year, and would also bring her in depending on the height in the Fremantle forward line.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here - we are finding a way to win games against good sides, but we are still a fair way off the level needed to beat Adelaide.

Nice inclusions, Gaby Colvin and Megan Fitzsimon.  We will give it a crack tomorrow!


Parry dropped! I'm shocked

Good to see Fitzsimon back in. Gillard hasn't done anything wrong but Colvin experience will be needed as the defence will be under the pump against Freo

Thought this would have read like - Meggs likes the ins this week.

@Meggs

If we lose, Parry was clearly the glue holding it all together, we just couldn't see it.

Top 2 spot up for grabs tmrw evening. Will be tough.

  • 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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.
