I want to start enjoying this thread again.

Freo’s start to the season was a false economy.

They’re a top 8 side that was masquerading as a bottom 4 side.

I can see them replacing Adelaide in the top 8 come seasons end.

    They're really not either...

    Their start was a false economy as is their current form.

    They've beaten bottom or banged up teams.

    They sit somewhere around 9 to 12...anything lower is a bonus for us.

    I suggest we kill 2 birds with the one stone this weekend.

    improve our top 4 chances and improve our chances of a high draft pick.

    Just win this game Dees

    Shouldnt throw rocks in glass houses. Forget about the silly draft picks, we have a season to play out.

    Could be death riding demons if they screw up over the next 4 weeks.  No guarantee we'll even make the 8 .

    We'll know soon enough. We have very few injuries far less than other clubs. Even Port had three key players out .

    Port were missing talls on a wet night. They were probably better without them...so I disagree re "key" We were down Sparrow and Petty...perhaps Brown ( unsure of his status now) We also has Oliver injured in the game and Pertracca at half rat power for the whole game. Plus Fritta on altered training now for months. So...we've def had our fair share of injuries and suspensions in 23. Come Sat we'll be down Oliver and Hunter and unsure of what Trac can do. these are pretty big outs.

    We can only blame Goodwins lack of control of a list that should be fighting for top 2 week in and week out. We are our worst enemy.

    Close the stupid thread. 

    They were a 15 win season last year that were 20 points off a prelim.

    As if they were ever going to finish in the bottom 6 this year.

    And credit to Luke Jackson for defeating the much ‘vaunted’ Gawn/Grundy on his own.

    Currently picks 15 (2022), 12 and 30 for Jackson after he beat Gawn and Grundy today.

    Peter Bell would be very pleased with himself

    Adelaide win tomorrow and it's back to thank you Peter Bell for a top 10 pick. 🤣

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • 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.
