By adjusting Casey Fields to Alphabet Stadium proportions for training this week all they needed to do is draw a straight line from pocket to pocket on the outer wing. 

 

When they decided to rebuild the entire place did nobody think to move it 5 metres to the left. 

Whinging about Kardinia Park being narrow. Keep it going, keep it going. |  Page 4 | BigFooty Forum

i'd prefer they move it 5 kilometres to bass strait

Agree, then there could be new talking point for the footy media every year -

Gerard Whately: with modern footballers and boots being so much better, and the distances they can kick, they really needed to give the goals some protection.

Dunstall: i don't' agree Gerard, i'm traditionalist and having row of gum trees 30 metre out directly in front of the goals that players have to kick over just doesn't feel right - what's next a water hazard?

Gerard: it's not 1992, the game must evolve. 

David King: according to Champion Data 38% of all kicks from the 53 metre mark have 16% chance of scoring which is higher than 15% and so the data is clear on this - we need more data to be clear on this. But to be clear i think Freo will finish top 4 this year, because they play the gum tree so well. 

Dunstall - didn't you say last week Freo would finish bottom of the ladder? 

King- yes, but i thought they were planting the Nyssa sylvatica not the Tristaniopsis laurina

You forgot one thing…

An infection that requires IV antibiotics and a relatively long hospital stay for these days would be quite severe and debilitating. He must have had a whopping fever, weight loss and risk of septicaemia and internal organ damage. His appears the type of infection that killed many healthy people in the days before advanced antibiotics. I believe the severity has been downplayed somewhat by the club.

Yep. Probably would have done in a fair share of dlanders and 50 years ago quite a few. That said, Go back 100 years and diarrhoea used to knock of a lot. The 1800s was a brave time to pass wind.

All of which makes me laugh anew at suggestions Oliver was soft for not playing with blisters.

From the afl injury page (such that is):

McStay has been ruled out of Sunday's game against Adelaide and will miss a few more weeks after suffering an infection in the finger he had surgery on back in April

My take is that we are confident enough in our midfield and  Sparrow to cover for Oliver, that we're giving him another week off. 😀

Essentially, we don't rate them...🤷‍♂️

Yeah maybe, but more my concern is that having an infection requiring an otherwise elite fitness human to have 5 days in hospital probably knocked him around a bit...

Hopefully recovery quick and fulsome 

Got seats in A10 at kardinia park. They were 50 bucks compared to most others that were 60 bucks. Does anyone know if that means they are restricted view? It didn't say that but still a tad concerned. Not sure if this is your area @FearTheBeard ?? 

 

Read that Danger field stated it is a good time to meet Melbourne for Geelong to get back on track. 

The hubris of this club grates me.  I hope Goody uses that as motivation to go after this mob.

Great game. Both Melbourne & Geelong were vying for a finals berth. Gary Ablett kicked 11 but Melbourne still won.

My ticket cost $90 + booking fee. I couldn't see any tickets below $80 that became available to the general public after the GFC members passed them back. Not sure how people were able to get cheaper ones.

Why would the afl play the last 2 premiers on a Thursday nite in Geelong with a stadium that has restricted attendance due to construction whilst the G is empty & deny more people seeing the game, not to mention playing at their home ground 2 years in a row!

If you are referring to his words on SEN, he said we were among the best teams and ‘taking on the best is something players and the club should run toward’… it’s hardly hubris. How can it be? We have won the last two important games against them and humbled them in a Prelim.

I've been there at least half a dozen times in the past years for Dees games. A10 is on the fence at the half forward flank. It's cold at night so rug up but the cheer squad sits here so you're in good company. The angle of seating is low which makes it hard to see the other side of the ground especially if there is someone tall sitting in front of you. But viewing is not  "restricted" by any structures as such. I've attached a couple of maps - hopefully they're helpful.

  • 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.
