St Kilda heard of this concept called defense?

Yes, they were schooled in it only a week ago. But all the cool teams are into all out attack. Power teams like C'wood, Ess, Hawks, Blues.

The AFL website studiously avoids mention of the crowd size. Maybe their calculators don't go down that low. (They're mostly used for counting exec bonuses.)

I never believed the St Kilda hype.

The commentators seem very determined to maintain it though. “St Kilda right in this!” “St Kilda a very good team!” Etc. St Kilda have been putrid so far, no defensive structure and so fumbly and rushed moving forward!


St Kilda just bomb it into the forward line, now who does that remind you of?

The competition can’t sustain any more teams, so for many having 19 or 20 teams creates new problems. Any relocation / new team will obviously be a long term venture. It may not get seasoned fans to jump straight on board straight away but some will. Over the years kids will grow up knowing nothing else but supporting them and the fan base will grow. I personally think one issue Tasmania faces should they get a team is player retention, as picturesque and beautiful as it is I don’t think it will hold the appeal for everyone (and yes I’ve lived there for several years).

But as you say you’ll support it as a second team and that’s half the problem. 
Everyone in Tassie already has a team. Would you drop Melbourne to barrack for the Tassie side? No you wouldn’t.

Do you know many others who would?

Eventually you’ll have kids barracking for them organically but it’ll take years and success to make it happen. 

I’m not actually advocating for a Tassie team. I don’t have any need for one, as like I said, I have a team, and so do most others. Just saying that if “we” did get one, I wouldn’t want it to be Norf.

It’d be a bit weird as a mascot though given Tasmania has very few Kangaroos. The only Kangaroo indigenous to Tassieis the Forester Kangaroo and there are sadly very few of these left. Of all the states to have a team called ‘Kangaroos’ Tassie would be the silliest pick.

Norf are a beggar bowl club. Will go anywhere for some $$$$. $10 could buy you 2 reserved seats for the game.

On the goal cameras, they are good but when it suits look like VGA quality. 

 

Kolodjashnij having a great game today.  Knocks out Jack Higgins (subbed out with concussion) then follows up his good work slamming captain Steele in to the Marvel concrete damaging his ACL.  Makes up for him missing targets.

Saints look ordinary, don’t they?  Meggs was surprised they got so much media praise last week for their 38 point loss to us.

Nobody in Victoria thinks anyone wants Norf, don’t worry.

But the second half Meggs? Media thought they were awesome. We were in neutral for most of it.

Geelong need to get out of neutral cos the media might be onto something 😎

The Aints have gone bezerk 

Kicked 7 goals that quarter. In the corresponding quarter last week agains Melbourne, they also tried to make their move and wound up scoring 2 goals to 1.

Pretty solid effort from the boys in that context.


This time tomorrow we are likely to be 5 games and 50% clear inside the 8. After nine rounds.

It ain’t about making the 8. 

With Lions and Freo up and about, top 2 is what matters

Just an observation DD. I'm well aware we have far bigger fish to fry. 

 

This is terrible I know, but every time Tom Hawkins is in a marking contest, I silently hope for an injury.

  • 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.
