I want to see a really strong all team defensive game, especially from our back 6, no leaky goals please.

Keep the Lions to 70 points or below, Fritsch to kick 4 and Melksham and BBB to combine for 6.

Dees by 37 points.

    Flew into Coolangatta last night, 25 degree day up here. Now, looking out at the sun nudging above the horizon on the Coral Sea at Currumbin 15 storeys up. About to go for a run around Burleigh Heads headland and then a dip. Geez I'm glad to be out of the miserable sodding Victorian weather.

    I'll be sitting in the members tonight, it'll be a blast. Let's get it done... and if we don't,  I still think we're the only team within the finals that can win from anywhere. ❤️💙

    Feeling very confident about this game

    Our away record is exemplary, the manner of the Carlton win will give the boys real belief and we have champions players who will rise to the occasion

    Snuff out the threat from Neale and Cameron and we're half way there

    I reckon Kossie will light up the Gabba tonight

    Hugely important game for our flag chances and whether our home and away season could be considered a success.

    Not many clubs win a flag with their most recently consecutive win coming in round 16.

    Would be disappointed to end the season in an “also ran” position of 6th after starting 10-0.

    A win and the sky is the limit for us!

    Had a listen to SEN this morning, they played a bit of Fagan's media conference from yesterday. When asked about Neale and possibly Harmes tagging him I'm sure I heard he said we used questionable tactics to nullify Neale last time we played them. He then mentioned it's up to the umps to watch that sort of stuff. Just what the ump lovers on this forum wanted to hear.

    Go Dees!!!

    It will be a bit difficult to deal with being in the top 4 since about Rd 2 and not making it. Get it done Dees!

    I'll be in the Lions members as well Onion.

    This is it, we have to take the next step up tonight.

    I'll be there with my wonderful dees supporting wife and my lions supporting father in law and some old friends who are lions supporters.

    I hope we clobber them.

    Nice one Brownie, a bit of locals knowledge please - I used to hit up ‘Ze Germahn Klub’ pre match when I lived up here 10 years ago, alas it’s booked out- any other recommendations? (Not the🍍!!) 
     

    I’m expecting a tight error riddled match with the Dees pulling away in the third and for Brisbane to ride the crowd a bit in the final.

    Stuck in a hospital bed after a (minor) mishap yesterday.  A win tonight, by a big enough margin to grab 2nd spot, will be just the tonic I need.  Go Dees!

    Was rewatching highlights from our GF and it’s been a while since we played with such confidence, strength and speed. 

    If there is ever a H&A game to treat like a final this is it.

    As usual against Brisbane, Hipwood, Daniher and every other mug to bash up Gawn and the forward line. Dees must stand up and make a statement.

    I believe in this team. We have lifted for high stakes interstate matches without fail for the best part of the past 2 years and I don't expect tonight to be any different 👿

    When I boarded the plane to Brisbane yesterday and saw the boys I walked past Max on the plane and said good luck tomorrow night & please don't stuff up our top 4 chance.

    He said thanks and we'll try not to.

    Also wanted to say to May come up with a better strategy for your kick ins but didn't have the guts to do so.

    Because the Lions are so hard to beat on their own deck, this would be the first time this year when the Demons aren’t favourites with the bookies.

    This is the best time for us to defy the odds, to prove the doubters wrong and to earn our spot in the top four!

    The home deck record is pretty misleading.  Yes they've won all 10 there this year, but only 2 have been against top 8 teams (Collingwood in Rd 5 when they were a bit his and miss, then Carlton in Rd 21).

    Did he add what they and other teams do to Oliver...

    He has played that 'poor Neale' card a few times now this year.  Probably trying to get the umps on side.  He should show more public belief in his team rather than sook.

    So what if the Lions have won 18 of their last 20 at the Gabba? The Dees have one of the best away records of the comp and everything to play for.

    Cmon Dees - no fake motorbikes tonight please.

    Wonder what he would say about Oliver if he was a Lion.

    He is in a wresting match nearly every contest to get free to go after the ball and rarely free kicked.

    • 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.
