Speaking from numerous unfortunate experiences involving Melbourne in the past several decades, let me caution those who are getting excited or carried away by West Coast’s injury woes. 

I know that we have a quality side these days but history tells us that often when teams have their backs to the wall in terms of injuries, they can still be hard to toss. The Saints of Rounds 1 to 3 are a good example and I remember a game against Hawthorn a few years back when they had a long injury list but still managed to give us a flogging. 

I hope we approach the game with a business as usual approach.

    OMG, that's embarrassing.

    On another note, perhaps it could be thay those mad Monday antics of Dangerfield, Hawkins, Selwood and Co are pretty close to reality.

    Just for Catman's information, I think the rest of the comp thinks the real conspiracy was that Geelong even won it last year in the first place.

    Let’s not forget the loss to the Essendon Top Up team during the Drug Saga.

    So who's the No.1 draft pick that next week's grudge match with Hawthorn will battled out for bottom spot?

    It would be like 2008 in reverse.  Hawthorn feeling Geelong taking something from the before their time is due.

    Great to see Matt Rowell get back to his stellar career start after awful injury setbacks:  "... putting together three brilliant performances. He had 28 disposals to stand almost one-out against Sydney, followed it with 22 against Essendon and then racked up 24, along with game highs in contested possessions (18), clearances (nine) and pressure acts (30) vs Geelong".

    That is an unreal set of numbers!  Reckon he will give the Brownlow a bit of a shake this year. 

    iirc mid last year someone from the club said GCS had been the hardest game.  It was at Metricon where this year's game will be.  I'm sure we won't take it lightly.

    How I would love at the hawks to pull an effort out this week. 

    I just don't want Geelong to get the number 1 pick.

    I hope they can crawl back their way on the ladder and finish 10th.

    I'm not a fan of expecting wins by certain margins because of this reason. We may end up getting a routine win but they may push us till the last quarter. Win first, everything else second.

    West Coast will try to bring us down to their level. It could be a real scrap for a while 

    I would be planning very carefully if i was Goodwin

    • 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.

    • 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

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      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.
