Great ins. Glad to see Grundy back (and the 🐐 as well of course).

Where will we play Smith? I hope we put him forward, though it leaves May and Lever as our only tall defenders, making it harder for them to zone off...

I'm guessing smith sub and hibbo into the starting 22. 

Wet night, don't need 3 talls down back given McKay is out. Hibbo can crack in.

Smithy injected forward or back late in the third, depending on where needed.

It’s less time consuming to list what he doesn’t eat. 
He is not match fit.

Good find that. I only find empty chip packets and dog hair behind my couch. 

Well I have a 3 year old who puts my work phone behind the couch…

”Hey mate, you know you just can’t put Brodie back here! He might break. He’s bloody expensive!

Sorry Brodie; he just kept you there for later. Didn’t mean anything by it. Good luck on the weekend!”

 

If Grundy is in, I don’t mind it. If nothing else he lets Gawn and JVR not ruck as much and that is helpful.

My dog loves fish and chips night for the chips. She looks like she’s smoking a big stogie with a chip hanging out her mouth

I actually quite rate JVR's ruck work, especially at boundary throw-ins but without Grundy I worry he'll just completely run out of gas at some stage and we need him fresh and firing forward more than we need him rucking. That's what Gawn and Grundy are for.

May as well watch it again.

WOW the Carlton defender taking a dive from a light Melksham slap. 

That should be 1 week suspension.

Beautiful footage.

Carlton stuffed that up about 10 times in 2 minutes. You'd think they've learned a lot since then.

Melksham doing Melksham things - coming up clutch in last minute come from behind wins.
That Carlton girl's reaction at 4:07 is tattooed on my mind like the Bulldogs lass in the grand final.

Classic win.


Just watched AFL 360. Kingy has hit new lows. He showed several clips of Cripps in Carltons losses getting contested possessions at centre bounces under pressure.  Some clean, some not, but according to King, Cripps wasn't tough enough, too comfortable. Should have broken the tackles easier. His heart wasn't in it apparently.

 He then showed Cripps in centre bounces in their wins. They were almost identical, except for Kingy's commentary, "Bang, take the contact, out the front, quick kick, pure" Repeat.

It's why their winning now apparently. It was embarrassing.  Gerard smirked during and at the end announced the sponsor with pleasure and a smile "All the lab work is for Xero" and boy, was it!

Discarded ruckman?

Where did they find him? Behind the couch?

Most ropable thing Mitch Cleary said was basically Goody has given Grundy “one last chance”. What a peanut!

How good was Hunt in the last few minutes.

I saw the same thing, and thought the exact same. King says whatever he wants to suit his narrative. If he doesn't have any stats backing up what he's saying, I just ignore him. If he has stats, I usually still ignore him:

I don’t think there is a role for Tommo this week as I don’t think May can play on Charlie. I would play May on the resting ruck. Carlton have an otherwise small forward line and we need quick backs like Salem, McVee, Bowey and Hibberd. I would try Rivers on Charlie. Charlie is too quick for May and better at ground ball too.  Even Hibbo could be a better option.

Too quick for May? The key defender that plays on Toby Greene and Charlie Cameron?

There was a beautiful bit of video analysis by someone on YouTube (if only I could remember their username) about how that staging cost Carlton 10 seconds, and how those crucial seconds gave us the time to win with no response from them.  Sooo satisfying 😇😈

So dramatic.

Like a football telanova. 

Last chance saloon is on my bingo card.

If the Grundy news is true, then with the heavy rain on Saturday it might be ok due to the number of stoppages expected. Gawn will get exhausted going against two rucks for 90% game time. 

I’m not sure Grundy is the answer for the finals series but he’s probably the answer for this Saturday. Smith absolutely needs to be the sub in case we need more mobility in the forward line.

Kingy says some of the dumbest things of all the media and there is a lot of competition. I actually don’t mind listening and watching him, not to learn anything but just for a laugh.

I just watched that as well. It was truly absurd


Geez it would be nice if we give them a touch up, the media circle jerk for Carlton is getting to Collingwood levels, clary will be like a caged lion who has been poked with a stick everyday for 2 months, got a feeling the players will be right up for this 1

That was terrible analysis and vision as evidence! There was no difference in the poor vs the good.

Also “no one can go with them when they’re like that”. Bulltish. How about the midfield that piled on 3 goals in 30 seconds in a grand final with the most devastating centre stoppage work in the history of the game? I reckon they might be able to go with them…

May doesn’t play on Cameron and I don’t recall him playing on Greene lately.

You must admit that Curnow would beat May in contested ground ball and that May has slowed in the last 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 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

    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.
