Canโ€™t se Hibberd getting up with a sore Achilles. I reckon Tomlinson is a chance to replace him as tall defenders will be needed to cover Oscar Allen and Darling.ย

    Iโ€™m not sure how this works but someone must have put money on the Eagles. Weโ€™re now at $1.30.ECB53519-AEE9-4975-B632-6D167BA85CA5.thumb.jpeg.7592510b53bb1fc5313125c24df2662e.jpeg

    I think thatโ€™s an error WJ, canโ€™t find anything more than $1.06 for us.ย

    Itโ€™s the AFL App with Sportsbet odds. Surely they canโ€™t get such important things wrong?

    If thatโ€™s from today Iโ€™d say the $1.30 wouldโ€™ve been snapped up in a heartbeat.ย

    I'd keep JJ in, what he doesn't have in burst leg speed is made up with Kossie in the midfield.ย 

    Sparrow as sub (unlucky) and if well on top look to bring him in end of the 3rd qrt for Clarry or Trac. Or look to bring Sparrow in a way to reduce mins for Trac and Clarrie.ย

    It wouldnโ€™t be a real time connection which means it would be manually updated by someone.ย

    I assume he must have been able to complete full training Thursday, and Tuesday training was just a recovery stretch and walk. I also guess, any imaging of the injury must have not shown any hot spots.

    If that training pattern is repeated, how will Hibbo keep fitness without a full workload?

    Achilles problems are a fluctuating injury and he has been managing it for a few years now.

    Could also be the selectors are playing games, but why, when West are forced to choose from the underdeveloped players.

    Remember how they said they were doing Thursday teams? Has that been thrown in the trash again?

    As they've done for decades, all teams are announced on Thursday but for Sunday games extended squads are named. The final 22 is trimmed on Friday, and the sub named on game-day as usual.

    Tomlinson or Turner me thinks.

    Turner isn't named in the squad. If Hibberd is going to be withdrawn, it will be Tomlinson.

    Other than COVID, I think the only change has been the drop time, which used to be 5pm but was moved to 6.20pm to allow Channel 7 to announce the teams "first" during their news bulletin.

    During COVID teams were announced the day prior, which was in part at least because we were playing games mid-week to make sure we had a complete season.

    That's right.ย 

    The Thurs games have confused things a bit for me in recent years. Seemed like yesterday's extended team was announced at 3:30-4 around the time of the presser. It's hard to tell if posts in the pre game on Thurs are actual teams or people still making predictions.

    It really hasn't?

    During covid it was always announced the day before. Things went back to normal last year.

    Well โ€ฆ we might know a little more in 2 hours time when the squad is reduced to 22 players plus the 4 emergenciesย 

    As a matter of interest, when is the Casey team expected to be announced?

    It could be that the one time it changed was enough to throw me off into an alternate universe that is actually the same.

    Have the times of release on the day changed Daz? With the advent of Thurs night footy at least?

    I know we have a different team now however I don't ever remember the MFC winning by a " very large margin" hardtack.

    74 points in a grand final will do me fine for a very large margin :D

    He'll be better appreciated somewhere else.

    • 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
