Gotta say this is a garbage performance from our midfield. It's like we're letting them have a few bloopies.

 

Petty to the backline, Trac forward. He’ll why not throw May forward for a bit, see if he can get some confidence.

And for the love of god someone tell Fritsch to stop gelling his hair and get into the game.

    Bizarre Game. 
     

    Fritsch, Langdon and Lever are nowhere to be seen. 

    If they can enter the match we should do some damage. If they can’t, this is going to the wire.

    I certainly can see why we tried to get Essendons pick to get Humphrey. Guy is going to be weapon.

    May is done.

    70 to 45 contested possessions.

    Gold Coast just working way harder.

    That is very worrying. GC just hungrier and they’ll continue to work hard given they have a sniff. Really need to lift.

    Pathetic umpiring. Recall the bounce.

    Terrible bounce but Grundy can’t just go running past the ball and jumping in to Witts. That’s exceptionally stupid.

    The underrated reason to why the Pies got rid of him is because he’s really dumb for an experienced player. Has no concept of playing the percentages 

     

    From my position in the outer it looks like the suns are employing the collingwood tactic of having more players at the contest. No backline can defend that movement.

    They have grown in confidence since halfwsy through the 1st quarter.

    Grundy and May need to lift up.

    Is May still carrying some injury? He looks very sluggish in open space.

    Geee we look really off.

    When have we looked on? 
    we have been underperforming since round 11 last year and it’s starting to get frustrating

    Once again, the umpires are embarrassing the game. Shocking inconsistencies. 

    I hate them. I honestly do. It’s a deep seated I really want to burn their houses down kind of hate. 😳

    We are in front. 

    Go Dees.

    Bruise free football, midfield not putting enough pressure on the suns. Same as last few games

    Our much vaunted backline not doing much vaunting. May carrying something? Need Petty back there, Turner being rag-dolled by Casboult.

    Slender lead, poor half.

    We look unfocused, giving them too much room. They’re taking marks at will in our backline. May has been horrid. Please put Petty back.

     I’m loathe to say this already but the reality is that we’re not there yet, not even close. Like last year our wins have come against low ranking teams or ones who have not yet found their stride.

    Our wins are v 10, 11, 14, 16 and 18. Losses against top 8 teams.

    We need to make big improvements. If we sneak a win out of this I’ll be very happy but we need to address stuff like what the hell happened to our backline, where is May? Why do we disappear so often? 

    Needless to say we need a big statement setting second half.

    Not enough players working hard hard enough and hitting the contest with intent. Gold Coast first to the loose ball on so many occasions.

    Most of our players can lift so expecting a response.

    • 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.
