    No surprises is a bit of a surprise...

    May and Hibberd looked tender and Chandler ??

    So much for managing the quick turnaround

    Hi DJ. As much as that concerns me my response related to the inclusion of No.19 up front. I guess their best defender goes to JVR then?

    That line up is a joke. Only a few named were in their real positions. 

    That's the whole point - Goody's having a joke with us. He does this so 'Landers go insane. Laugh along I say. He's probably watching on laughing with the way he's #%&*!#@ with our brains. It's his secret weekly indulgence.

    I was hoping that Daniel Turner would have got a run in the backline, really surprised that Hibbo got up he looked in a bit of trouble late in the game skying kicks. He is a tough customer.!!

    I recon Hibbo perpetually looks in a state of trouble. Love him.

    Lever was calling out a nickname to Schache.

    "Weasel",  I was taken a back.

    Perhaps he has weaseled his way into the team, or his bonding with deep and meaningful discussions.

    I was hoping some of the old codgers would be managed this week with the short turnaround - May and Hibberd. Similarly, I hope the mids are rotated out of the centre a little more for Kozzie, JJ and Sparrow.

    Of course we won't take Norf lightly!

    Didn't Rivers have a knock as well? Maybe just cramp 

    Yeah, just cramp.  Was stretching it out for a while before he totally missed that kick and was subbed immediately after.

    They’ll look to stretch us for height, especially after the Essendon approach last week.

    typically we’d just run all over them but with the short break and injuries to some of our smalls, there is more risk in this game than I’m comfortable with.

    Maybe Fritter at centre half back is a thing.

    A few posters have expressed doubts and concerns about the game against Norf.

    I don't get it! 

    We will [censored] on Norf from a great height!

    I don’t agree. We are in very mediocre form and bottom sides come out with great intent against us while we often come out napping. 
    5 day break on top of that and this could end in tears.

    Less stupid or more stupid than telling the opposition exactly how we're going to line up?

    Correct Jaded, I expect they will come out hard. They may well hang around until half time .... but after that ....

    I just realised it. The Deez media division ^%&*@#-!p the media release. They reversed the lines. Should have read:

    B: J Jordon, J.van Rooyen, J.McVee

    HB: J.Viney, J.Schache, M.Hibberd

    C: E.Langdon, C.Oliver, T.Sparrow

    HF: A.Brayshaw, B.Fritsch, T.Rivers

    F: J.Bowey, S.May, J.Lever

    Makes much more sense this way.

    • 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.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’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 wasn’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  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
