Very ordinary game however there were positives. Nibblerโ€™s continued effort throughout the game. JVR playing his role and now showing good follow-up with his ruck work. McVee is just a cool cat.

Take the 4 points and move on.

I thought that was a good win. Tasmania is a horrible place to play and North are far from terrible over there. It's almost scary how similar today's game was to the last time we played them in Tasmania.

Pickett's last month has been exceptional. He couldn't have picked a better time to get back into form.

I'm worried about Petty's injury though. He just can't take a trick.

ย 

Pointless IMO trying to pick final four spots at this stage with so much to play out.ย 

Similar draws for us and Lions but injuries (to own and opponents), grounds (Lions today and at Marvel) and us in Sydney etc.

Viney BOG for me. Stood tall and lead from the front when we were not switched on.

10 clearances, 10 inside 50s

An absolute beast

Just saw on the broadcast Lever seemed shocked by whatever Petty said to him

No he didn't.ย  In fact petty didn't look like a player who's missing finals.ย 

Optimistic.

Ruck round?ย  really?

is it small defender round next week?

After a frustratingly slow start the Demons have rocketed into the Top 3 on the ladder with a victory over the North Melbourne Kangaroos by 32 points in Hobart.

We're 2nd.


We got an unnecessary scare, but took the points. Might have only been against second last, but North came out hungry and we steadied. Good teams do that. Better teams donโ€™t need to (we need to start games ON).

But ultimately itโ€™s a day marred by an injury to our already depleted fwd line. Petty has been an absolute dead eye, I hope itโ€™s not too bad and heโ€™s at least back for finals. Weโ€™ll need him.ย 

Otherwise, Kozzie BOG, easy. Viney awesome, heโ€™s having a year. Chandler good. ANB very handy. Melksham unlucky all day, but was involved despite stats not showing. Harmes bad.ย 

Backline will need to start switched on next week against the Blues. Canโ€™t give up goals like that.

Anyway, we push on. Go Dees!ย 

Win is a win, we don't need to gain massive percentage IMO, I think it comes down to either us or Brisbane winning out for 2nd, Brisbane have a harder run on paper but who knows.

Good job, well done Dees.

I think you just have to give us credit for the character and ability to dig in today. Collingwood have been getting credit for it all year and it looks like we are building that aspect and never say die attitude too.ย 

Sometimes a good scare is not a bad thing. I hope we will learn from this and bring our A game against Hawks in two weeks.ย 


Glad we won but Q1 and Q4 were embarrassing. 1g 6b in Q4: have the goal-kicking yips returned? And some foot passes in Q1 were awful. It was like we were trying to kick it to North Melbourne! Kicking coach: hellllpppp!

It's a Foxtel thing for laughs.

Good thing Harmes is getting replaced by a certain someone for this next game

Definitely some Clarko factor in that first quarter and a half. Therefore a good response to have the 4 points effectively sown up at 3 quarter time, unlike Collingwood who couldnโ€™t maintain their momentum yesterday.

Good coaching resting the stars in the last quarter, albeit at the cost of percentage.

Fair to say weโ€™ve done our service for football by playing in Hobart 5 times since 2016, 6 if you count the fact that we were also scheduled there in COVID 2020. A little more than Collingwood and Essendon who have travelled there about zero times in that period.

ย 


Hope petty is okay. That is right to go by finals,

Max said it best in the post game interview, playing footy down there is true footy. Crowd doesn't really have an impact and its always a contested competitive game.

First quarter was an absolute disgrace. A combination of arrogance, laziness, disorganisation and Clarksonโ€™s sugar hit.

No issues with the last quarter. Goodwin put the cue in the rack at 3 qtr time by giving Gawn, Viney and Trac major bench minutes.

Id say 1 to go, Id rather JJ out for someone later but Sparrow stays, he's been quality this year,

  • 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
