It’s not. I just wanted to tag you in the post so you see it 😂

 

I am genuinely interested to know what you think Port will do for the remainder of the H&A season to make sure they hit peak form in September. 
I feel like they’ve gone too hard too early and tinkering now is very risky. 

No idea to be honest.

But they appear to have taken a completely different approach.

There's no way they wouldn't have some loading program in place.

But they seemed to not drop off in their intensity till the blues game they just lost. Which is weeks later than when we started our loading phase. 

I'm guessing the fact they managed seven players in this game isapart of their strategy to manage load, fatgue, rest individual programs etc.

Bur that is risky, because clubs are  loath to make more that 2-3 changes (except for bevo) because sytems are so important.

Seven changes is the reason the blues were favourite against a team going for its 14th straight win.

They can afford a loss and that was obviously a risk they were happy to take.

    Now they have to bring everyone back because they can’t afford this limp display against the Pies. 
    A strange time to do this. 
     

    It feels to me like Hinkley is on a hiding to nothing. He basically has to win the flag or he’s gone. They went so hard early because another so so start to the season and he’d get sacked. I wonder how much his fear of sacking is impacting their plan for the season.

    The results have suited us perfectly so far.

    Now we need Essendon and Geelong to draw and Geelong to sustain 7-10 season ending injuries. 
    Easy.

    So the brother gifts the game to his brother, total capitulation by the Bombers.

    Geelong's bigger bodies are absolute kryptonite for Essendon's smaller mids. It looks like men vs boys.

    Seeing some pretty bad comments on social media regarding Sam Weideman. 

    Was reading a stat that he hasn't kicked a goal in 6 week..

    How on earth does that happen for a key forward?

    It’s a real shame there’s not more than 300 Essendon supporters at the ground watching this.

    The best thing about the Cats pumping the Bombers is that their percentage doesn’t count but the loss of Essendon’s does.

    Really tough draw in the next month for Port, could see a huge drop off

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
