Still worried about how we handle ground balls in our back half.. we just cannot stop the opposition. 
Wins wallpaper cracks.

This is why we miss Salem so much. Lever is like a baby giraffe as soon as the ball hits the ground.

    How appropriate for Jack to get the medal. He goes to war every week.

    Some players will die for their club - Jack Viney would gladly kill for it.

    Take the points, don’t talk about the game again.

    exceptfor the rooter! And May needs to respect his opponents cos he got beaten badly.

    If he's not injured, is he a risk to be omitted? Maybe Turner for May, Petty back home to D50

    Despite the umps, and ourselves for 2.5 quarters, we have come away with a good gritty win against a hard-working tigers outfit who came to win. We still have a long way to go, but these are important steps forward!

    Kade Chandler stepped up in that third quarter when we needed a spark, great endeavour and fight to get us back into it. 

    Our intercept game started to come back in that second half too, our defensive structure certainly looked a lot better closing out the game (which i think is drastically aided by Max's inclusion).

    The frustrating thing is he is a class player, but it was like he knew Leaver was back so tried to play loose. Prob wouldn’t drop him yet but he deserves a talking too.

    This time of year you don't want to be playing great footy, just collect as many 4 points as you can. Great football comes later.

    Yep, just bank as many wins as you can early on. Worry about hitting peak performance at the business end of the year.

    Up shot is that we have lots to improve on and we’re 4-2.

    That was what we were doing last year and that didn’t turn out well.

    May all your dreams come true.

    If anyone wants to clip this magic moment and let us all lip-read her epic 'thank you', it is just after 3:38:00 on the Kayo broadcast.

    Seriously, I nominate it for video of the week.

    I think they think they have the competition covered, have gears, turn it on and off when they feel like it. Bart Cummings preparation, can’t win the Cup in August, peak on Melbourne Cup day.

    Slow start but found a way. Viney a champion. Roo has arrived. Immense mark and conversion early in the last. Broke the tiges right there.

    richmond supporters are feral and so hard to listen to. Second only to pies in the nuffie stakes. Delighted we beat them.

    Max and Lever 18 marks.

    Makes a difference. 

    Jvr turns it on at the right time.

    Umps go and get...

    I think the umpires were so bad attempting to maintain an interesting contest ad nauseum, that they came out onto the ground 'gone' and 'got' in the first place.

    It seems to me that in the last quarter, we finally started to remember how we can play – far better pressure, tackles that stuck, gang tackling, making Richmond fumble. Now we have to remember that and repeat.

    Now, what do we do about our poor contested ball intensity, and our horrid ground ball skills in our defensive 50? The Tigers ripped us apart in these 2 areas tonight. If Dusty kicked straight we probably lost. 

    A major and persisting issue - terrible handballing. Inaccurate, wrong choice, to a player under pressure, high loopy blind dangerous ones, players having to stop running to take them. Poor in every way. 

    And although only 20 touches, I hope we don't drop Jordon again. Some of his off-ball work, tackling, and defensive running tonight was so, so good.

    • 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.
