It’s a sign that the club really really really see JVR as part of the future.   And want him to stay no matter what the two western Australian teams throw at him in years to come !!  

Great to see Smithy wearing his old man's jumper.


I can (just) tolerate JVR moving number because he never played in 21.

But Smith moving from 44 to 29 grates my gears.

Yes, 29 was his dad's number. So what. Make 44 your own, Joel!

Is 7 years before changing numbers some sort of record?

People changing numbers doesn't phase me, although I personally would stuck to the 1st number given to me. 

Having said that stoked to see Rooey in Twoey! #FreeRoo

You already have half of them wrong. Grundy is 6, Hunter is 12, Schache is 19 and Farris-White is 47. Interesting to see what numbers Jefferson, Adams, Verrall and Sestan are.

From todays announcement, got 5/8 for the new players. If only I’d seen Hunter in 12 as you had noted it’s be 6/8.  
 

Great to see JVR get #2.  I’m sure Stephen May #1 will get into JVRs ear about what defenders try to do. What a better mentor could you wish for.

The Power’s Robbie Gray changed from 17 to 9 in his 7th season after his knee reconstruction 


Sometimes players have lots of injuries in a particular jumper number think by changing the number they might get a better run with injuries, yes players are superstitous.

New Demon numbers:

2 – Jacob van Rooyen (from No.21)

6 – Brodie Grundy

12 – Lachie Hunter

19 – Josh Schache

21 – Matt Jefferson

26 – Jed Adams

28 – Will Verrall

29 – Joel Smith (from No.44)

38 – Oliver Sestan

43 – Kyah Farris-White

Loving the confidence of young JVR to want to take on the famous #2 - will be nice to see that special jumper back out on the ground 

Have a sneaky feeling that our new #26 might impact sooner than some think - his draft footage was very impressive, looks like he has good disposal, can take a mark, capable at both ends of the ground

apparently brayden maynard has taken grundys 4, he would've been at pies for longer than 7 years right?

Verrall is now listed at 200 cms tall.

Assuming Farris-White is not stooping, either Verrall has grown, or Farris-White is not 206 cms. There doesn't seem to be 6 cms difference in their heights. Also Verrall seems more than 4cms taller than Adams, so hopefully Verrall has grown. F-W and V are big boys. With those 2 and Scahche at 201 cms, we seem pretty ok in the ruck after Max and BG.

Whatever, we have certainly added some height to the list this year.

And I sing Hallelujah Redleg, I thought that we were exposed for lack of height coming into the finals this year.

But you are right poita come on MFC these kids and supporters want to see the List as it actually is for 2023.!!!

Another factor of the Tmac injury.

Height weight and strength and footy smarts missing with Tommy out!

But are you sure that’s not just a stage you’re going through? 

Whether it is or isn’t, doesn’t faze me.😀

  • 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.
