Very unconvincing from the so called challengers but other supporters probably say the same about us.

Everything I'm hearing re the Dees in my part of town is "how can your boys be stopped?"

They're already basically giving us this flag and conceding a Prelim/GF in 2023 as the best case scenario.

Remember everyone if you are a defender and your opponent takes a mark, if you put your arms out in frustration- that alone is justification for a 50. As we heard from the umpire at the time 

will this get mentioned as the absolute farce that it is????!

 

Entertaining game. Won't be losing any sleep about the Lions challenging us

Pretty poor win by Brisbane if we’re being honest.

Their Coaching staff would be disappointed in giving up 90 points in modern day AFL footy.

….”giving up 90 points in modern day AFL footy.”

Many teams do.   Our defence is our greatest strength and will only be better with the return of Petty, and when ready, Salem.

Don’t forget the Pig

Poor game. At least the filth lost but not by enough. The Bears looked poor to me but still won. The same could be said for Melbourne who are not playing their best.

I find it odd that we were so heavily penalised in our practice game and no other team has been until now.

Harris Andrews was definitely having a winge after watching the replay.

Gardiner a few minutes later complained openly about a decision against him but couldn't be penalised as the goal had already been kicked. Seems to defeat the purpose of the rule.

In the opening 33 games of the season, just 6 losing sides have scored 90 points, including tonight.

Conceding 90 points in a win is too many for mine. No way would Brisbane win a final conceding 90 points.

Magpies have lost 3 games in a row now

did Daics have any more kids??

Yeah I reckon our practice game was the anomaly. Haven’t gone hard after that. At least not consistently

If you had to guess what umpires fixations are going to be this week, try pushing in back and interference going for Mark.

And o yes the new deliberate out of bounce...wtf.

wow

what a stat............

Now I have something else to worry about... but thank you

Hoping by Round 23 top2 is already sewn up , dont want to rely beating brisbane up there like geelong last year

It was wonderful to wake up this morning to check the score: Brissy vs. Collingwood (The Filth). I attempted to watch the game but the umpiring again gave me the willies, so I retired bored and disinterested for a long sleep.

What is interesting is at this point of the fixture, Brisbane (who in my mind were only moderately impressive) appear to be the major challenge for the Dees this season. It was good to evaluate the first half of the game, albeit interrupted by the snot goblins attempting to make the game '...genuinely evenly balanced and competitive...',  and with an intended bias towards The Filth to facilitate this ...' in an attempt to keep the viewing public ' ... on the edge of their seats...' 

Had this not occurred, at least in the first half that I saw, Brizzy would have won the match by half time, showing more skills across the ground and in moving the ball quickly, and well, on most occasions.

It is not time for the Dees to relax, however.  It is time to enter into the rest of the season with confidence and a determination to commit manslaughter in each game from now on. A bright season awaits us, surely.

Is this the most embarrassing (in a good way) statistic of all?  A brilliant piece of insight.

Mason Cox is 31 and looks cooked as an AFL footballer. As long as Collingwood play him in their team, especially with all the tall timber they had running around under lights last night, they will struggle to win games. They should trade him to Geelong at the end of the season. 

They said the coverage it’s the first time 5 players 200cms plus have played in the one side… not sure Mason played much. 
You’ve got to feel for him, poked in the eye and  his vision appears stuffed, he just can’t seem to track it into his hands.

Others think Brissy were not impressive, I walked away impressed, with Hipwood to return the fwd line with Joe D finally putting goals away, they have improved. Defence is a concern letting the Pies score so highly but the caveat is the new rules of the week on display that dragged the Pies closer that it should have been.

 

Who can rid me of this meddlesome umpiring?

He's not old enough.

  • 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.
