Even if Clarry’s not ready please get Harmes out of our side. 

I suggest we may see the Grundy forward experiment. 

In Oliver Grundy

Out Harmes Petty

 

 


I'd prefer not to see Harmes in the team... again! 

Welcome back Clarry.

MAybe Smith forward to cover Petty? Otherwise BBB...

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE

IN: The Clayton Michael Oliver, Grundy

OUT: Petty :(, Harmes (Thanks for the service to this club and you've lived our dream of playing for your childhood club but I think its time to go)

In Oliver , Grundy, Thomlinson 

Out Harmes , Petty , Hibbo.

JJ Lucky

Out: Harmes, Petty

Joel Smith to play forward if Petty is cooked.

 

Moonboots are precautionary although they look awful.

Fingers crossed on Petty. Maybe just a week or 2 hopefully.

Healy on kayo, looking at it on replay thought  it could well be  the dreaded syndesmosis. ie 8 weeks. Anyway fingers crossed it’s not .. he’s a big cog in the wheel for us. 

Just now, whatwhat say what said:

there's no match-up for tomlinson at the baggers so can't see him coming in

OUT: petty, harmes
IN: oliver

smith forward and hibb comes into the 22

Yeah I think i’m with you. Tempting to give grundy one last go though isn’t it.

Hibberd was quality after he came on for Petty. Definitely deserves a full game next week against the dangerous Carlton smalls.

For anyone else you’d be suspicious of a syndesmosis so I’m not surprised job for life Gerard went with that. But with Petty only just recovering from the sprained ligament in his foot that has to be the suspicion too.

Either way serious foot/ankle injuries rarely get back inside 6 weeks. Full fit inside 5 would be a good result.

...not really?

do not rate as a forward option and gawn's work around the ground has been extraordinary these last few weeks

Thought he was average. A poor panicked handball gifted the Roos a goal. 


JJ’s second half probably keeps him in but geez if Oliver is cherry ripe and can dominate the midfield with Viney and others then do we go a double change in the middle and take out a crash and bash mid and bring in Woey, Spargo, Laurie or even Moniz-Wakefield? All who would bring either speed or polish. 

We had 6 inside mids today: Viney, Gus, Tracc, Sparrow, Harmes, JJ. We really only need 5. 

I don’t think he’s quite ready but I’d love to see the Money man Wakefield 

Oliver for Harmes seems a reasonable bet.

A few options for Petty. We could try Grundy. We could flip Smith back to the forward line and bring Tomlinson back. We could go back to the well with Brown, but I doubt that will happen. A lot of food for thought. A shame Casey didn't play this weekend.

I think Viney 71% gametime was part of the idea there.

Loading up on mids lets us run out games strongly, but it means we also start slowly because we’re slow.

  • 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

  • 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.
