Nice goal to AMW. Casey doing something our seniors need to learn to do, putting them away early.

Howes looks a player, Iโ€™m interested in why heโ€™s being played at HB, a crowded position on our list and not the wing. He has attributes we lack in our current two wingers heโ€™s tall, a good mark, beautiful kick and tough. Is it a tank issue?

Schache definitely putting up his hand for the Fritsch position

could you play him as the sub next week instead of J Smith?ย 
Can pinch hit in the ruck and play forward if we needed a different look against the lions โ€ฆ. ?ย

Not thrilled with Smith as the sub. In the days of the injury sub he would have been better.

Harmes or Melksham are probably better subs if you are looking for fresh legs

Blake Howes our next debutant youโ€™d have to think. Schache to get another chance perhaps?

VFL is quite a step down, Iโ€™ve watched most of our games this year and the standard is just ok

Schace and Tommo deserve a go at AFL level for sure.

Laurie not getting much, for anyone watching is he out of position (ie he takes harmes spot) or just not showing anything?

Would consider Shack in for Grundy this week IF Max is fully fit.

As you say, can pinch hit for Max and a much more dangerous proposition up forward vs either Max or Grundy.

Play Dunstan as the sub.ย  VG in congestion.ย  Brilliant distributor by hand.ย  Help out the mid field later in the match.ย  Especially given Tracc willย  probably be playing less mid and more forward minutes.

Yes on Howes, but with Schache, while he is kicking goals, mostly from frees or soft marks, he doesn't like the hard ball and that is very evident.ย 

Goody is not a fan of that.

However on output, ( goals ) you would put him in the frame if we have the injuries.

TBH he could probably play the Fritta role for a few games, but I don't see it happening.

Tommo is very very unlucky, not to be playing regular senior footy.

JVR showing why he's in the VFL. Highmore has had the better of him.ย 

Needs to work on a lot - leading patterns, field kicking, general nous. The best way I can describe him is a super competitive, combative forward. But he's not a smart forward - not half as smart as schache for example (who conversely lacks all competitiveness)

Chandler equally ineffective at this level. On this showing AMW is almost in front of him...



Nice to see Jed Adams starting to find his feet. You can start to see the attributes the FD saw.ย

Very versatile.ย  Maybe the tank but has got better the longer this game's gone on and as it's opened up.

Very classy.ย  Can see either him or McVee on a wing at some point no problems.

I really like the look of Howes. The only thing working against him is we have a balanced defence and an over abundance of running skilful half backs. Itโ€™s a good problem to have.

I reckon at 90% of other teams Howes would have had a crack at AFL level by now.

I'd like to see Howes play forward. Seems to have a physique similar to Fritsch. His kicking seems ok, has some run, and can take a mark.

His tank is good although no doubt a step below proven gun runners like Langdon and Hunter.

His contested work has generally been just ok at VFL level. Half back gives him more opportunity to fix that up and heโ€™s getting there. But heโ€™s noticeably a clear step below someone like Woey for contested work, despite having more size and skill. Woey and JJ are probably the back up wings, no point having a 5th in line winger.

At some stage Iโ€™d like to see him move on ball and resting forward if heโ€™s just about mastered the half back role and thereโ€™s no afl opportunity. But for now heโ€™s still building his gameย 

ย 

And of course as soon as a compliment Dunstan by hand he coughs a couple up ๐Ÿ˜†

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
