Hope the coach gives Kozzy the occasional short run on the ball (particularly the occasional centre bounce) to get him up and about.

Why, when he has he does nothing he ain't a midfielder..

    Hoping the battle hardened way will prevail over the easy way. I know we’re carrying injuries but I live in hope.

    Not thinking ahead too much but by the time prelim day hits Geelong will have played 1 game in a month and 1 competitive game in 6 weeks. 
     

    Agree, one game at a time

    Pretty sure it comes from english slang.  to 'bottle it', is to choke or lose your nerve. not only in sporting terms. ie. didn't have the nerve to ask a girl out

    Funnily enough, when I hear the expression "bottle it" it's being used in a positive sense, meaning that whatever is being praised is good enough to put into bottles and sell, just like a good wine.

    We always have a secret weapon when we play Brisbane. That weapon is Joe Daniher.

    Hoping for some more slapstick magic and hand on hips second efforts from him tonight.

    Weather wise things looking good.  Only one forecast, Access G3 (which draws data from BOM and unfortunately tends to be the most accurate) predicts a small shower (0.2mm) at around 8pm.

    So no excuses, rock up and be very loud!

    I got Melbourne on my mind. Though the story of royalty makes it hard to be 100%.

    Pressure, run, transition well from attack and defence, get over the nerves quickly, play in the moment and take the opportunities. 

    It will be a tough game, fighting for everything.

    We are a proven big game team and must go in with plenty of confidence. 

    I want our leaders and best, to take it up to them and have great games. They will drag the rest with them.

    C'mon coaches, make the decisions quickly about our style and structure during the game. Get them up and successful. 

    Go Dees!

    I am hoping if it's close  he'll do a Rohan with 2 minutes on the clock and kick the goal to seal it.

    He's been trying for mark of the year for two seasons now so it's time he actually catches one. 

    Mind you his block to let Trac do his Daicos snr goal last year was pretty snazzy   much unrecognised and gave a needed boost to Tracs goal kicking reputation (!!!)

    Tonight’s banner has a stunning pic of Lever, Maxy, Dogga and Tracc. It will look spectacular when raised. (I’m sure other teams’ cheer squads must be envious of our banners. We’re blessed to have in the DA a rusted-on Dees diehard who runs a printing company, and the quality of his work is next level.)

    And to the left of the pic there’s written in huge letters: 

    WE’RE NOT DONE YET!

    I can’t remember exactly the wording on the flip side (even though I cut the letters out 🤭) but I do know it includes the words ‘unbeatable’ and ‘repeatable’ so one gets the gist of it. ❤️💙

    They still control the reigns on game day. Now the squad is selected the aspects of going in unchanged is irrelevant. 

    Would prefer them to make actions then sit on their hands (which they have done in the past), if Brissy starts taking control or we need to get rolling.

    You want them to be non proactive or reactive?

    Maybe you misinterpreted my intentions, or you are holding onto something about the coaches?  

    In style, the tempo, take it on, play percentages, 

    In structure, extra players at the contest, or in defence,  push up the field from defense, crowd the ball, play one on one.

    I could keep going, I hope you get my gist.

    The coaches have to make quick decisions during the game and not just let it roll on. 

    That is my opinion (seriously), if joking I would have said bring Yze on as our med sub.

    • 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.

      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.
