Confidence is low, but optimism is high.

I love and hate Friday night games for this reason. Win and the weekend is set up. Lose and you'll be annoyed for the rest of the weekend. 

I'm a big advocate for this but I must say after the GWS experience, it's also not fun being pent up with stress/disappointment/blood coming from your ears on a Sunday evening at 6pm when ideally you want to relax before the big week ahead.

Hope we get a decent crowd. Seems like more than a few dlanders are going. Been a while now since we've played at home too. Let's get comfy and win these next three games there.

Looking at the fixture it's quite conceivable that Power finsh first. Technically we could finish third  as our run home is fairly soft.

1) We got 37K to last years mid season Thursday night game between the two sides. Anything under 40K for a Friday night game would be disappointing.

2) Port have a number of outs this week, turning a probable win into a conceivable loss to Carlton. That might be the loss that costs them top spot given they have an inferior percentage to Collingwood.

I’d love to be wrong, but on current form the Lions will win this comfortably. No doubt they will get themselves up for this one, with plenty to prove about their MCG hoodoo. We’ve been just going with quite a few passengers.. I’ve lost hope that we’ll ‘click into gear’.. Lions by 45 points.

Agreed. A gut punching Sunday 6pm loss is about as mediocre as it gets in the weekly cycle of a footy tragic...

Hopefully last week was too much of a training run for Bris prior to an MCG trip in the dead of winter.

I'm a little scarred from the start of the year where they just blew us away in the midfield until the lights blew out.  Hoping we can capture some of that magic from the final 10 minutes!

That’s a mulligan for me. Gawn went down in the first 5 and we were rattled.

Tx Bbp. Top spot will be a close one. Love to see the blues trounce power as I can't stand that mob. If they don't, I think power may get top spot as they have a crack at the Pies in Adelaide soon.

Thank goodness for Demonland. Absolutely no insight from SEN. 

 

When the whips are cracking the Lions are soft. Away from home and in the cold they will wilt.

It won't be pretty (like usual) but we will bury them physically

Yeah but how much fun did we have during the power-out, DP?! Not knowing if play would resume so packing up giant heads, unpacking giant heads, furling flags, unfurling flags, booting Lions fans out of our bay (politely of course) all the while singing and dancing.

That was the first time in forever where I didn’t cry after a loss!

I really don't get the big deal about a side choosing to send a player back to VFL to work on some things, plus also get a bit of a rest after coming off a 12 month injury.

 

Not sure we will get many there tonight. See there AFL are pushing $19 GA tickets not a good look for a 3rd Vs 4th game on a Friday night.

Nor do I though it is odd that they chose to do it when the VFL has a bye.

I hope everyone who complains about our crowds is a) going and b) going to make a heap of noise!! Even, and especially, when we're struggling!!

It’s about making headlines with outrageous observations!


This has a Kings birthday feel about it to me.
We’re fully aware of what’s on the line and just when most of us (including myself) we’re wondering what the hell is Goody up to he’s gone whack.

Petty back to defence.

Two key fwds.

Our kicking accuracy returned last week.

We need to play line we did against the Swans and Collingwood.

If that's literally all it is @DistrACTION Jackson then I can support it.

The confusing words from Richo and making a 29 y.o 2 x AA ruckman go to the VFL to work on his forward craft just casts doubt though over what it all really means.

Totally! I mean, it’s not like those security guards are gonna catch you.

Incidentally, re the guy who did the bare-chested pitch invasion a few weeks ago, the media reported that he was caught and fined. Yeah nah, he was on a tram home before those guards even made it to the boundary fence. 😆

Unless of course Jonny’s out in the middle…

any time a star recruit, two time AA on big money gets dropped its big news. 

clearly he is being dropped to help us win, not to work on stuff. after 13 seasons we know he can’t play forward 

many way you slice it, it’s big news. like Neale or J Cameron getting dropped

This will be "won" in the coaching box.

Our only chance is to make it a low scoring maul. (8 goals apiece or thereabouts)

Win is great but we also need to protect our percentage buffer.

Get into a shootout and Brisbane could take us apart.


Collingwood supporters will be having a chuckle over Grundy being dropped. Actually, Richardson mupped the interview saying Grundy needed fwd practice at Casey. Casey have a bye?

 

The guys is a 🤡 screams for Brown to come in because JVR isn’t up to it. Brown has a poor game against GWS, calls for him to be dropped for JVR or Jefferson.

JVR comes in this week still moaning. Bags Spargo for years because you know if it ain’t obvious PF ain’t going to see what he brings, then retracts midway through 22(yes literally it took him that long to see it) only to change his mind again.

The bloke is deadset clueless.

But hey no matter what happens tomorrow if we lose, it will be because Grundy wasn’t selected 

Well Pendent or Pendulum or whatever let me just say this.

1 Spargo has played probably 10 good games in his 90 odd, Yep lauded him at one stage when I thought he turned the corner, but his last two games have been garbage. He got dropped then without any return to Casey, returned to the senior side on What?? I don't buy this forward pressure stuff, give me GOALS AND POSSESIONS AND I'LL SHUT UP!

2 I remain a staunch advocate of BBB and believe he MUST Feature for the rest of the year.

3 JVR is Raw but promising, did NOTHING last week at CASEY yet still got a call up.

4 If I am "Clueless"The football department must also be similar with the chopping and changing, NEVER rewarding guys at Casey who have form I.E Schache, Dunstan, Moniz Wakefield et al.

So I might be passionate and opinionated BUT with VFL Under 19 experience behind me, Amateur 100 gamer and Senior coaching experience and a couple of Phys-Ed degrees... Nar dont think I'm Clueless.

Your turn????!

Everyone's an expert, everyone's after a quid. Pulling up the rear, content value runs 10 lengths behind egocentricity and money.

 

Big night for Max Gawn and Jack Viney. Our system will hold up well against Brisbane's firepower but we need to make sure we compete in the centre bounces and stoppages.

I have no idea what to expect tonight. 

But I am interetsed to see how brown and van royeen go together in the forward line. 

Goodwin is waiting for Kozzie to break open a game so tonight would be a good start. He'd want to do something.

  • 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.

    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.
