We've got so much WA talent... Taj, McVee, Rivers and JVR.

How are going to keep them? I worry the vultures from the west (Freo and Weagles) may try to come after them!

Sorry if this is still too premature but we must keep this list of players for the long run.

 

My question is how isn't Joel in the starting 22.

He is the super sub, just like the Sixth man in the NBA.


I have a second question, how much are the Colliwobbles fearing us now?

If the panel can discuss the merits of selecting Luke Dunstan over Jordan or Harmes. He has dominated for Casey whilst Harmes and Jordan have been underwhelming. He could also be used to ease the load off Viney.

You need a Oliver or Petracca playing in that midfield, if Dunstan is in and Viney out.

 

Was that last quarter from Max on par or better than the third qtr in the preliminary final in 21 against the cats? i wonder if we can compare the stats and see.

also amazing job guys love the pod it makes the commute to work enjoyable.

To play devil's advocate , what's the body of evidence the Harrison Petty can excel as a forward. Are we delightfully reading too much into one game? Please discuss panel.

Hi guys well done on the podcasts each week, they are brilliant and insightful...

My question for this week is do we take the opportunity to rest the big 3.. Max, Trac and Viney... considering we could rotate with Grundy, Dunstan, Spargo and still do enough to beat the kangaroos.

These 3 are so important to our finals chances I feel it would be wise to keep them fresh and free of any niggling injuries going int September?

Yup, I think this is a good call.  He has also kicked goals this year.  With Clarry coming back maybe not.  But gotta be better than Harmes

I'm going to start a rock band.

And call it the Petty Forward Experiment.

 

Hi gents.

Love the POD great work.

I have long been a Petty forward hater, and thought hid talents as a backman were too good.  Think I might be wrong!

What do you guys think about the balance if the side?  I think this is it, with Jordon and Woey keeping thier spot unless someone bangs down the door.  Unfortunately I think that's it for Harmes, he doesn't complement our midfield correctly and Clarry will take that spot anyway.

Huge win, top 4 sealed can we get top 2?


Just want to say how awesome that was!  It was a shootout and the toigs brought everything they had.  We took momentum back, absorbed the pressure and turned it around.  The last quarter it barely left our front half.

Big shout out to max and jack, leaders extraordinaire.  Great coaching by goody, including the tactical sub use.

how do you rank that win? (I think it matches the Geelong win in 21)

What has changed in the way we play. I don't believe our defence is playing as well as they could but I can't help but think these high scores we are conceding are partially by design. 

Are we pressing higher up the ground? Are we playing faster and 'embracing' the imperfections more? A month ago I wouldn't have fancied Melbourne in a shootout but now we seem like a team that doesn't care how many points the oppo scores as long as we score more!

given that our desire to be more aggressive going forward means we are, obviously, able to be opened up going the other way, if only conceding less than 72 points was the old defensive requirement, is conceding less than 100 the new maximum?

I feel Langdon is at about 75% of his usual self from past years. His fluidity and accuracy seem to be lacking and he sometimes looks lost and all at sea in positioning. I can only see the game on TV so dont get a full or true perspective. He's a player that we admire for his altheticism and ability to move the ball forward, to our favour, but it doesn't seem be happening of late. Increased pressure? Different role? My own skewed perception?? 🤪

Keep up the good work guys!!

what a fantastic win . can’t wait to listen to this podcast . i know he’s still a few weeks away but can we play fritsch and melksham in the same team . melksham has been huge this past month .


I think we need to take another moment to appreciate the efforts of our Captain Fantastic Max Gawn.

He was simply massive in the last half.

23 disposals
22 hitouts
17 contested possessions
9 clearances
379 metres gained
7 inside 50s
7 score involvements

He has more clearances than Richmond in the last quarter alone. 

Here are 5 questions that I have for this week's podcast.

 

1) Was that Harry Petty's best game for the Demons (as a forward)?

2) We would all have to be over the moon with Jake Melksham's form in the team so far?

3) The Brodie Grundy conundrum. What do we do with him? Can we play two ruckman in our team? What level of "forward craft" does Brodie Grundy need to meet so that he can get back into the AFL senior side?

4) Is Jack Viney tougher than his old man Todd Viney? I certainly can't split them. Jack Viney is hard as nails and playing some fabulous football at the moment.

5) What do the Demons need to be cautious of in Alistair Clarkson's "come back" game as coach for the Kangaroos down in Tasmania this coming weekend?

Exactly he is our Toni Kukoc

He was incredible - noting the Q4 signature move taking ball from center ruck, kicking it inside 50 so we score increments every stat above. AFL measuring 7th jacket now and will reinstate Max as AA captain and issue a public apology for blip with Hawkins, blaming previous administration….

A question about future planning and How to work our Max cunundrum?  playing Max solo seems like our best chance of winning another flag . Do we try to hold onto Grundy fr a cpl of years as back up. Will we even have a choice as he may well ask to leave. If this plays out as now increasingly expected , then any decent ruckman will also fear being stuck in the VFL and may not want to come to us. I’m loving the “ now” after a great win but how  to plan ahead ?

  • 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.

  • 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

    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.
