so that's 3 of our premiership back 6 missing in petty, rivers, and now hibberd

Concerning that the 3 out are from the one unit.

Would much rather have a defender, a mid and a forward out like we did against North.

    So I am wondering how quick the hand wringing begins if we lose the match tomorrow? Or will people be more at ease with the context of injury impacting continuity and thus performance? (unlike people's reflections on the 2019/2020 seasons)

    A well thought out move.  Keeps players fresh avoiding long drive to Casey day befroe the game. (Langdon's not a big fan of the Fitzroy to Cranbourne trip)

    Easier media acces.

    Has anyone seen a running sheet with the times of the Flag unveiling and other parts of the before game activities?

    The email from the club said 6.30pm flag unfurling.

    Watching the captains runs footage on instagram I can see Dunstan, Bedford and Weideman.

    I presume these guys will be our emergencies tomorrow night.

    Other than Libba (and faux tough guy Daniels) they don't have anyone who shows much aggro.  We have May, Salem, Viney, Spargo, Picket who tackle with intent and to inflict some damage. 

    Libba is the poster boy for faux tough guys.  He should be embarrassed with his nonsense in the GF.

    Goodwin mentioned Lever and Kozzie will play (phew).  There must have been some doubt for the reporter to ask the question.

    Couldn't get my ticket to work although i was able to log in. Waited on hold for 40 minutes with the club, they reset my password, I logged out and back in again and there it was. I was starting to get a little stressed. Can't wait to sit in my reserved seats again! I don't think I used them at all last year so it's been a long time. I have some dogs to walk and feed near the MCG before the game so I will try to get to them early enough to be in my seat by 6:30 but I fear I will miss the flag unfurling. I will be cutting it close. Bloody Wednesday night game *grumble*

    bom now says 27 and humid tomorrow, with "Medium (50%) chance of showers, most likely in the morning"

    And an overnight low of 19, so expect it to be warm at the ground

    Hibberd's calf not too bad apparently, confirmed will miss, but not too far off.

    Also interesting we did the captain's run at Port Melbourne.

    Not great that they're both under a cloud though.

    If Lever was to miss, I'd be tipping the Dogs due to us having too many first choice defenders out.

    MCC sold out, so they've opened up bays in the Ponsford stand to be part of MCC. Not seen them do that before. Hopefully crack 70K

    Can't believe we're back with pre-game threads!!

    Geez time has flown! Or has it been really slow?

    I can't tell anymore. 

    Three defenders out is not ideal. We saw vs Carlton what the impact is of an unsettled backline, particularly when compared to last year's stable back seven.

    You would expect Tomlinson, Smith and Hunt to be the replacements for Petty, Hibberd and Rivers; all three selections make sense. I am not a fan of Smith and Hunt being in the same backline though, adds too much unpredictability. At least they all got a run last week so they're not coming in from the cold.

    I suppose the only other question is whether Jordon pushes into the starting 22 and, if so, who he would displace? I would otherwise assume we won't see any other non-GF starters in the 23.

    • 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.
