Howe is just about the Pies best player so far.

No โ€˜just aboutโ€™ about it. Hawks would be 7 goals up if not for him. ย

But they've won.....oh yeah nothing

At this rate they may not even win this years minor premiership!

(To be clear for all the pie worshippers - and you know who you are - that was a joke).

It's been nearly 2 seasons of playing at a high intensity it'sย  hard to keep up . I wont write them off but their game style must take a toll

Probably no coincidence he missed a lot of games through injury and is not as fatigued/banged up as the rest of the Collingwood side.

Broken by Carlton last week (just as Port was) ๐Ÿ˜


I presume the Pies have aligned their training regime @binmanย and theyโ€™re rather taxed at the moment. 7 weeks out, 2 games clearโ€ฆ

Pies fans would be incensed by this defensive performance from Collingwood. I love it.

Al jokes aside, I would be surprised if they're running out of gas - unless, like us last season, they have injuries that are not known about.

But agree, they play a very taxing game - physically and psychologically.ย 

This game reminds me of the lions suns game. The suns came to play. The lions didn't. And it is very hard to turn that energy around.

As I said about the lionsย  it's a worry for contenders to not to come into a game fully switched on tgis late in the campaign.

As ramanaskas noted on abc this morning, flag winners historically win their last 4 and come into the finals in red hot form.

Lions lode to suns. Port a good chance of losing 5 zip.

Pies lose last week and 5 goals down 5 mins into the second against the 16th placed side.

Mmm, of the contenders, who does that leave?

I feel filthy shouting "come on" to the TV when the Hawks get a goal. I might need counselling. But if it means seeing the Pies lose, I suppose the lesser of two evils...

Welp it was fun while it lasted. Hawthorn have played their good quarter and will shut up shop from here on in it looks like.

Yeah, I wondering the same thing.

But surely it's pretty late in the season not to be close to your optimal shape and playing your best footy?

But agree, it's def a possibility.

They certainly look to be making fatigue skill errors.

Even if The Pies win this game I wonder if they are starting to believe they don't need to turn up at the start of games. If they do it will kill them come finals.

I think theyโ€™ve just learned the danger, corrected, and will win this very easily. Sadly, obviously.ย

If the hawks can keep going, we'll know the answer in the last 20 mins of the game i reckon.

If they can't roll over the top of the hawks like we did the tigers, then the perhaps their timing of their program is different to ours (ie we're almost out the other side already).

Would have been hillarious if the Bombers lost but a better result for the Dees draft picks with them winning (in case Freo hit form).

Wow. What a soft effort from degoey then.

Ended up with a ruan goal.

No comment from the callers?


Would be crazy to be doing a heavy training load this close to finals.ย

Yeah, I would have thought so too.

You have to win week one of the finals after all.

Short arms we used to say in cricket for slip fielders who preferred not get near a catch rather than risk dropping it.

But if you win you don't learn it just reinforces bad habits.ย

  • 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

    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
