Gerard Healey comparing Jimmy Stynes to Mason Cox. Give me a break. 

 

What did he actually say? I mean Jim achieved the ultimate in the game as an individual. Was picked in the State of Origin side. Cox plays one good game every 8 weeks. They were talking up his player ratings. It’s laughable to compare them 

Toby made the right decision for his career leaving Melbourne, he still wouldn’t be getting a game with us. 
 

Some really interesting games next weekend. 

 

Collingwood are going to be in the grand final aren't they? They're likely to win it. 

I mean we can't beat them. We haven't beaten them in years.

Right on. That’s the defeatist attitude to live by.

He was gushing about Cox, how great he is and how he came from the U.S. and learned our game and blah blah blah then almost as an afterthought he tacked on a throwaway line to the effect of “…and Jim Stynes came over from Ireland.”

Just on the subject of Cox, that USA chant makes me sick. It’s one thing to have the American flag in the crowd (I have to say that’s ok since we wave Irish flags at our AFLW matches for our Irish girls) but to chant a player’s nation is bs. Why only an American player?????

Collingwood miles ahead of everyone else and they’ve got multiple players to come back.

The only thing going for the rest of the comp is that they have peaked too early and will run out of gas.

Everyone said we were miles ahead last year too at round 10. And we all know how that turned out. 
Smashing GWS at the MCG without Toby Green is not a premiership winning achievement ffs. 
Yes they are setting the tone. Their game plan is what we’ve all adjusted to and they are hard to beat. But they aren’t impossible to beat and player vs player we have a superior list of talent. We absolutely can win it this year. But we have a lot to work on. Lucky it’s only May.

Yes. Not close as a player or a sportsman, philanthropist or an all round humanitarian. Gerald Healey hang your head in shame.

Barely noticed Nick Daicos today yet he has had 40 disposals

He gets a few by kicking out after a behind and getting a handball receive when he runs past a player who's taken a mark.

We have a great record against the pies in grand finals. Beaten them 6 times while they have beaten us just the once.

They can be beaten, it appears some on here would lie down very quickly.

Adding to that we’ve still got Carlton twice plus Richmond, North and the Hawks again. 
Games against Port, Pies, Cats and Lions crucial to our top 2 hopes.

No excuses not to finish top 4, top 2 very desirable.

Absolutely. 

And after this Round likely Top 8 wont also change now just the final positions. 

Newbies from 2022 will be port crows and saints. All deserving.

Bombers and Blues can whistle Dixie for rest of the season.

For those that have the Pies pencilled in as premiers, no premier in about 20 years has been outside the top 6 at defending inside 50s.

Collingwood look very good, but no better than we did this time last year and we all know how that turned out…. 

Loooooooooong season and anything can still happen.

Melbourne, Collingwood, Brisbane and Geelong all seem a cut above the rest at the moment.  Port Adelaide, Crows and Bulldogs also a chance on their day.

Most of which were UNCONTESTED!! SOFT AS BUTTER

They've played mostly the same teams as us but got close to Collingwood and port Adelaide. Honestly we have had a softer draw 

I said fixture, so taken into account the draw and the travel as well. They’ve had a very easy run. 

Yeah I don't think we're in a position to accuse other teams of only beating up on lower teams.

I love how we are poised this time round. I'd rather be underdogs on King's birthday.

Are we lead by a Chamberlain, or a Churchill??

There it is, the chink that must be exploited!

 

Pies appear to be so even all over the ground. 

Their midfield of De Goey, Crisp, Mitchell, Daicos, etc. bat deeper than probably every team including us.

They may be vulnerable against our dual rucks though...

Pies will be hard to beat on current form… but we have the talent & game plan to do so 

do we.. ask me in six weeks

The Pies gameplan is multiple levels above ours

  • 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.

    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.
