4-6 is the worst possible forecast for injuries. Sometimes people never get off the 4-6 week injury forecast

Just when he started to hit some form too.

If Brown and TMac aren’t right I guess they might go with Joel Smith 


We really need Max to step up forward of the ball in the next month. Brown probably comes in, but between him and TMac it’s a raffle to figure out who can stay on the park. 

We’ve had no continuity in any of our tall players forward of centre all year.

whoever stepped on him should be shot

finally started to look at home in the fwd and bang!

hopefully be back and match fit by round 20 to get some games in pre finals

 

Very disappointing for all concerned.  Our forward set up was just starting to ‘settle’ imo, and now the experimentation has to start all over again.


Got to be BBB HOWEVER ....... I would be verrry tempted to throw Joel Smith in!🤩 Please dont go with The Robotic turning circle!

The only positive being that it’s not pre-finals. When depth is so important, because injuries are always going to come.  

Awful timing, not only was he just starting to look settled in, but would have been huge in trying to play defensibly against Alir this week

 

Report says it’s ligaments and that needs to heal before rehab starts.  Here is hoping he is a quick healer

Left field - Melksham comes in to play defensive role on Allir Aliir. 

They’ll have a tough time playing on Gawn anyway. 

You are better off bringing Joel Smith to play that role. He has the height and athleticism to go with him. 

How frustrating! – for supporters, for the club, and most of all for poor Harry Petty. The half he played on Saturday was the best footy he has played as a forward and would have cemented him as CHF for the season at least.

You heard it first right here (sorry Harry) -

One player who could have been spared that was Harry Petty who was best on ground to that time with six strong marks and two goals. But he had a problem in the form of a bruised foot and was subbed off during the break. Officially, the injury is not considered a problem which means he’s in doubt for Friday night’s blockbuster in Adelaide.

Time for Joel Smith to grab his spot. Could be his last chance. 


This one really stings.

Agreed with others was starting to see some continuity up forward and felt he was just about to see some scoreboard reward for how much work he does in marking contests and off-ball with his physicality. 

However I think its losing the flexibility that he gives us thats going to give Goodwin headaches. We have been going really well with the two talls and Hibberd playing as the third tall (doing a terrific job i might add) but against bigger teams the luxury of throwing Petty back and playing one of the rucks/Trac more forward will be a shame to lose over the next 4-6.

I think for the above reason I can see McDonald getting the nod over Brown as he can go back where needed. Coaching department favorite Smith might also be considered for this role as the swing man.

Hopefully returns right after the bye, that would be a good result. 

Looked to me like he did it during or before his mark for his first goal - he was limping as he went back to take the kick. Would playing on have exacerbated it? (spilt milk, I guess...)

  • 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.

  • 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

    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.
