Bombers getting pantsed. What a shame. 

Yep. Had a conversation during the week with some Essendon supporting relatives. They were bemoaning the AFL not switching the game to the G. I pointed out the fact that they had only been to Geelong 5 times in the past 33 years as opposed to our 25 visits. Their response was that there was a reason why them Pies and Carlton did not play there, inferring the “big” club mentality. They are arrogant entitled supporters who think they are bigger than the game. GAGF.

    Maybe they didn't remember how to find the ground?  Probably haven't been there since the building of the Werribee bypass.

    I hate seeing Geelong in 5th place. 

    And hate admitting that Tom Hawkins is a great KPF

    Curious, why do you say that? From my perspective, those 7 players all get a week to rest, recuperate, and get some time off, to avoid knocks (and then ON) in to the legs... They had to fit it in somewhere once Top 2 was 'sewn' up, at least hopefully from their perspective.

    Another 5-7 will come back (and out) this week and freshen up some others without losing continuity.

    We'll still beat them though :)

    Because they are not a side that has performed well in finals in the last decade. They had a terrible season last year and they seem to have found their mojo again.


    While they think they have top 2 in the bag, and they need a home final or they’ll fail again, the reality is that they don’t. They have some very tough games still to come, and flirting with form and getting absolutely smashed by a middle of the road side in the process, is not ideal preparation for finals. 
    There’s a reason very few teams do that. Rest and manage 1 or 2 players, for sure, but the impact of changing a third of your side twice in two weeks is a big one. 
    Now seems to be the time when the real contenders ramp things up. Port seems to be doing the opposite. 
    If it works and they go on to win the flag, all power to them. But history suggests this doesn’t end well.

    The ladder looks about right to me. Geelong look to be a class above sides like the Dogs, Bombers and Saints, but haven't had been as consistent as the sides above - and are only 5th because they have the most difficult ground in the competition.

    Commentators love fest of Geelong instead of commentating is making me feel nauseous. 🤢🤮

    Not watching (or listening) for that sole reason. Are they talking about one of the player’s relatives that runs the local fish and chip shop or making references to where a player went to school and how they are related to a sister’s, cousin’s,best friend’s boy friend who saw Ferris pass out at 21 flavours last night 🙄😜

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • 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.
