    Right - I'm going to watch the second half of the Deez and the Blues. I'll come back to the convo about this game in an hour or so.

    2 carlton supporting morons sitting next to me keep asking, "where are all your supporters?" and one even just made a joke about the Snow

    I was like "Mate, you realise your season is hanging by a thread here right?"

    Saad definitely looks sore - maybe ribs or something.

    Fritsch and Melk need to start leading. With no movement, the only option for our midfield is to aim long for BBB who is surrounded by 3 defenders. And one of Spargo and Kozzie needs to rove the back of the pack where Saad is floating unattended. 


    I’d just go all chips in on Weid for the last few weeks. Brown isn’t the answer. Him making a contest but winning the ground ball is mutually exclusive. Never seen a worser a player when the ball hits the ground.

    We just look slow. In all aspects: Running, reaction time, seeing options. When we won the flag we looked a step ahead of the game and right now it looks like everything is coming from sheer hard work. There are some crappy games on the board from most of our players, at this stage I'd only be giving Gus votes.

    How do we get Brown into the game? Gonna be hard considering he's always taking the best defender right now. Need to kick to space and run onto it I think. I don't know, it's a tough one 

    We need to play on instinct, first option is best. We also need a couple of goals early and the confidence will rise. We are probably not going to hit the form we would like to in this match but we need to squeeze out the win. That is pretty much it. My god we just need the win, please just win it.

    Can’t do any worse than BB at the moment.

    Brown has been crunched by 2 or 3 defenders in about 20 contests 

    If we're continually going to bomb fwd, someone has to do that job

     

    Hope we don't fade out we're not far enough in front.

    Oh the irony if Weid were to lead us to the flag 😆

    13, our 4th highest. 

    But most ineffective.

    Brown playing on Young and not taking a mark is a huge worry, he's got him for height, weight, leap and experience, and he's just had a couple of weeks off. there really isn't much excuse for him

    I can’t stand our coaching anymore. Even if we win this, bombing long to small forwards like Spargo, with McGovern on him is bloody madness. Kick it low or wide to space. 

    We don’t adapt to our selected side at all.

    Our handball turnovers must be a world record.

    Our disposal is garbage.

    We are not a shadow of last year’s side the way we are playing.

    Eight minutes left in the second qtr and I watched us switch sides across half back for what seemed like the first time in weeks.

    We raced forward and then fluffed it.

    I wish we'd had the courage and dare we used to have to switch and run it through the guts quickly.

    We seem a shadow of last year's side

    The pre game tension headaches are back and slowly building during the game to fever pitch. Comeon boys give us a break for the love of god.🙏👍👌🤘✅

    So many experts on here can't see he's continually bringing the ball to the ground. Has he been outmarked yet?

    He needs to run and jump at the ball to be effective. Kicks in need to be up in the air sure, just not into outer space before coming down. As @Bitter but optimisticalways says, a little extra penetration never hurt anyone

    Spagbol has time and space with ball in hand, he needs to park his ar$e at the fall of the ball

    Geez I’d love to see a Dees player storm out and take a grab like McKay

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • 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.
