Would like to see Petracca play forward more this week. I understand that is dependent on how the midfield is going but  I think his presence forward would help 

He’s not allowed to take a set shot though! Waste of a shot unless he’s dead in front 20 out.

    I've watched a bit of Casey this year, and Rosman looks close to AFL level, although not heaps of the ball in recent weeks. Agree about Moniz-Wakefiled. He looks classy but goes missing for long periods. 

    I thought that Rosman has been out injured.  But from whatI hear he is getting close, though not as was originally intended as a wingman, but as a defender.

    Well I am certain Ginivan will get a whole lot of frees in front of goal - AFL has decreed.

    I have a feeling Turner might debut. A key defender, 194 cm, been in reasonable form, what we need with May out I guess.

    Shots at goal in general play only…or if he takes a mark play on shot at goals

    Why?? He worked his guts out and did a few good things. He could bob up and kick a couple of goals! I think your comments harsh!

    Probably kick a few if the mids can connect properly rather than drop the ball on his head and expect him to take mark of the yr each time. 

    Mids need to lower their eyes ffs.

    I think the club needs to seek clarification before Monday on the holding the ball rule.  Is their March decree still current? I guess we find out Monday.

    https://amp.abc.net.au/article/100908150

    “Free kicks will be awarded against players who duck their heads prior to being tackled and do not dispose of the ball correctly.

    Some of the red flags for umpires will include players evading, fending, ducking, having a prior option and not taking it, being balanced and steady, or driving their head.”

    If Petty is still not right and Turner comes in for him we look very shaky at the back

    No offense to Turner but he'll be a first gamer.

    I reckon Petty will play even if only at 80%

    Looking like terrible choices, we'll see once the final team is announced.  

    Not so funny. Mitch did a far better job than Ben.

    Yep.

    He gets up and down the ground, albeit at not a great pace, which is important in terms of replacing Tmac.

    He's not super strong, but  good one on one and he is an excellent kick for goal.

    So a better like for like, and better option you'd have to say, than weed.

    Rosman missing last week so i only saw about 3 quarters of him (live) the week before.  Watched a bit on the box earlier.  Shows promise i just worry about his slight frame playing off HB going up a level to AFL.  Maybe another pre-season will help here?  Also whose role would he be looking to slot into?

    The other that showed a bit against the Swans (i thought anyway) was McVee in patches.

    A bit harsh,  first game back in how long? Forward line's a problem but delivery is the bigger problem

    All the talk is of Turner covering Petty. Any chance Turner plays ahead of Tomlinson if Petty is okay? Tommo has looked way off the pace to me.

    No info, but Disco is more a Lever-type than a Petty-type IMO, so I wonder if Lever is not 100%?

    Tomlinson looked like he was low on confidence in his knee and his ability last week. ACLs can take 18 months to get back to your best if you ever do. Poor bloke. Massive sliding doors moment last year in Tassie.

    All we need to top off this wonderful week is yet another defender to go down. Lever hasn’t been 100% all year. Sticky tape that sh it up and let’s go!

    Is Jackson a certainty to make the 22 given he’s named on the bench, hasn’t played a decent game since round 2 and is averaging 2 marks a game since round 6/Anzac Eve?

    Great to see Hunt out been pathetic. How Ben Brown gets a game I do not know? Rewarding mediocrity Hopefully disco replaces Tommo but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

    This was my initial thought also considering they've brought in Weideman.

    I highly doubt it though..

     

    I’m tipping Bakes to play, we sorely need his pace and creativity, Jordan or Sparrows to be omitted, both are way to vanilla in my book.

    • 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

    • 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.
