I reckon Dixon will play and he’s playing games with us.

    I'm sure I've missed this, but when are teams announced? I thought Friday night teams were always announced on a Wednesday?

    With Sparrow out, and with Salem fully fit for the last couple weeks, it'll be tough to resist the urge to play him

    I haven't seen it mentioned but Tommo would have to be in consideration for this game.

    Be nice to see JS finally give a strong performance and it will be between these two to replace Harrison Petty.

    Gut feel or just something you've heard internally?

    Rivers out of the back 7 and into Sparrow's midfield spot, and Salem into the back 7.

    Can Rivers run out as much midfield time as Sparrow?

    I thought we'd go Joel Smith for Petty, but reckon it'll be Melksham going by Goody's presser.

    That said, they might feel TMac's ability to go forward or back, may be an additional contingency that gets him a game over Melksham.

    Zero chance BB plays IMO. Bookmark it.

    Not the concensus of a lot of Port folk... 

    As @layzie suggests playing an underdone Dixon might prove folly.

    Port will bring a lot of pressure. They'll have to as they dont quite have the calibre required across the lines to play something akin to more Their-Game.

    They're going to more than likely try to unsettle our-style whilst cribbing a few.

    If they try this they'll need to be ahead at 3/4 time.

    We're probably better at absorbing pressure than the team theyll likely field.

    If Salem has had a 4 week mini preseason then I'd play him. Let him get game time the next 2-3 weeks and have him cherry ripe for the Pies. Also when we play the Pies I'd play Kickett on Daicos and tell him to play him close close close and then run off him everytime we get the ball and watch him flounder like a carp in a dried out summer river.

    agree on Salem

    Why risk him early. Kossie on Daicos That would be worth watching!!!

    I disagree. Why not give Collingwood the headache of deciding who they should play on Pickett? Now, let's get back to this week's game...

    This is going to be a tough game, from memory Powell-Pepper always plays well against us.

    Nice piece of alliterative tongue twisting. Say three times quickly, "Powell-Pepper plays particularly poorly".

     

    Actually, it's not that hard to say...

    We don't really play a full forward and centre half forward. We play 2x tall forwards, 1x forward ruck, Fritsch and 3 speed forwards. One of the tall forwards often plays a defensive role to keep the oppositions best intercept marker away from the play. And we actually want Fritsch to be the deepest forward because of his accuracy.

    We are going to plan our forward structure and entries around Aliir, who is a key for them.

    Brown has also excellent endurance and often covers the most distance in a game.

    Joel Smith to do a defensive fwd role on Alir Alir?

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.
