    what the one he got when the guy wrapped an arm around his neck in the tackle?

    Come on mate, take off the blue and red glasses, there was a “little lean” into that.

    Definitely adults only over on the Port Adelaide Big Footy board.

    Suffice to say most vitriol directed towards the coach rather than the players

    What. Langers hasn't spent a second on the bench all year. Freak. Is he even human?

    I've heard they have trouble getting him off the ground for the half time break.

    Rd 1 2013 they killed us and set us up for a horror season resulting in the sacking of our coach.

    It's about time we returned the favour.

    Sorry if already covered, but can someone explain that 50m to Langdon for me?

    I get the free for holding, but why the 50?

    If the dogs can get 30 plus frees each week by gaming the system then I’m happy to get a couple as well 😂

    Can;t believe how bad Port are. I know they are depleted but no fight or spirit shown at all. Surely they'll give a yelp in the second half. If not then Ken will be in serious strife 

    They're trying.
    Just can't beat the whole ground defence.
    We're choking them to death.
    The Demons are Jiu Jitzu blackbelts.

    Looked pretty soft to me...

    I reckon Hinkley would give his left nut for a 2nd ruck right about now. Main thing I want to see is our mids setting up better on our Ruck advantage. Max should be smashing it 40 m like Fitzpatrick from now on. And can Viney and Picket keep smashing Lycett's shoulder. Port have been late with their hits repeatedly.

    port did well to hold us up forward of the ball

    Sparg and Picket have been good with the pressure tonight

    would like to see better ball movement in the forward line, they have worked Weid out of the game

    track being tagged again?

    Gawn has been great around the ground so far

    out of all the non vic teams, LOVE keeping this mob goalless to half time

    lets tear them a new one in the second half

    I will go into my personal debt for the rest of my life if it means keeping Jackson just one more season. Arguably a Top 20 player in the league already (but needs more exposed form).

    And to think there were some fools out there who wanted us to draft Hayden Young! Egg all over your face. PS. Don't look back through my post history in 2019.

    Haha. Yes I believe I was in the Hayden Young camp also. That super kick in his highlights package sucked me in.

    Even so, Weightman doesn’t do what Spargs just did and is hammered in here…. But of balance lad.

    Ugh Max's goal kicking still frustrates me. 

    At least we opened up the game but we have to continue on with it and really thrash Port. They will come out with nothing to lose and will probably play more freer. 

    I haven't minded McDonalds game, everytime he goes for goal I have full confidence he will kick it. 

    I don't know if it's because we have been spoilt by Farmer and Davey over the years but I just want Pickett to do something.

    When a player disposes of the ball to a teammate and try’s to run to link up the next play but is impeded by the opposition player it’s a free plus 50 metre penalty.

    They are too busy minding the likes of Tracc & Clarry in that first half to get enough of the pill themselves and get any  momentum.....so far anyway!

    Big Max is being mauled in the ruck and around the ground....as usual.  And of course zero protection but always called for blocking at the slightest hint.

    Lycett constantly wrapping left arm around Max and over the shoulder on a couple of occasions.

    The player just in front of their last guy who marked before the siren..... cannons in to Max's neck/head with no eyes/intention of going for the mark....zero protection/favours.

    Need to put the foot on their neck this quarter.

    Viney's had a very good half along with Jordan, May, Lingers, Nibbler & Gus (no doubt a few others ive left out).  I like Harmes's gut running and willingness to close up on multiple opponents to pressure when we don't have possession.   Gus, Bowey & Hunt also here.

    Tracc started to find some space in the latter half of the second.  Whoever his young opponent is, he's about to find out how hard he is to stop (if Port leave him on Tracc that is)

    P.S. who put the hand in to cause that turnover on our half of the square that quarter (thinking Sparrow, Nibbler or Harmes).

    • 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.

      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.
