JJ. We donโ€™t need an extra mid now Clarry is back.ย

Schache should ruck the second half to get him in the game.

I suspect we're giving him a chance to show up forward (Melksham's spot) but not showing much separation etc

Schache has no mongrel. You canโ€™t play a key position role at AFL if you donโ€™t have the physical desperation.ย 
I think Grundy is a little bit the same. Too much of a nice guy. Needs a lot more agro!

Verrall - who looks a proper talent - should play forward to see how he goes. ย If he can compete forward heโ€™d almost be a crazy chance to play next weekย 

Big Kyah has no place at this level, back to the talent league pleaseย 

No he's not.

We've got him for another year as I recall and the senior forward line for next year is looking shaky. I hope they are at least trying to give him direction but my expectation level is low

Carlton smacking Casey in the midfield.ย 

A few Dees playing well, especially Spargo.

The cupboard is bare... If Goodwin couldn't have seen our forward decline a few years back... Not exactly doing his job

A lot of hopes were pinned on Sam Wiedeman I think.ย

So Petty, JVR and Jefferson are not AFL standard? Ok Jason Taylor tell me moreย

Weโ€™re not even having this conversation if Petty doesnโ€™t get injured last week

Nothing all that exciting from the forwards so far but seeing McDonald moving well is encouraging.

I look at Tomlinsonโ€™s frame and agility and Iโ€™m curious to see what he could do forward: heโ€™s kicked goals in the past but thereโ€™s no indication we have any interest in trying him.

Good to see Brown, Petty, and Jordan watching in the stands. Obviously Brown and Petty are injured but Jordan would know heโ€™ll likely lose his spot next round. Full credit to those three for showing up.

We have forward depth, but it's not Goody's fault that we've been decimated with injury issues in that part of the ground. TMac, Fritsch, Brown and Petty have all spent time on the sidelines this season.ย 

JVR and Jefferson are still raw but have promising futures.ย

Iโ€™d have him 30-1 to play at best. But we havenโ€™t seen him up forward to know.

Obviously the tank isnโ€™t there but heโ€™s playing 50-60% ruck minutes and doing really well.

The bar to getting a game - play 50% up forward and donโ€™t be completely terrible, has never been lower.

Yep... he was always one good game away...

I suspect that Casey (ladder wise) will fall off a cliff next year. They've been carried by White, Munro and Buntine who are all getting on. Throw in both Tomlinson and possibly Dunstan moving on and it's a quick spiral down


James Harmes is completely bereft of confidence. Everything he touches just turns to absolute crud.

Spargo has gotten better after starting poorly.

Great rundown tackled from Charlie Spargo. He's up and about, sniffing some AFL footy.

The cupboard has Ben Brown, TMac, Petty and Fritsch in it. The list has plenty of tall forward talent, the problem is injuries.

McDonald looks ok to me. Maybe another week at Casey. But I would play him in round 24.ย 


McDonald tries a don't argue but isn't quite strong enough. I'd love to see him get out on a lead or in a marking contest. Unfortunately Casey's delivery is too poor for such luxuries.

And you could still see that then with him.

Beautiful coast to coast play.

Mark and goal to 'Starship' Jefferson.

Harmes loves a handball to his teammates feet

Been over using the HB all season.ย  Most of his kicks are up & unders as well.

Caught far too often attempting the fend offs.ย  Seems to have lost the bit of burst speed he once had.

He still has the work rate and effort but having a very ordinary season so far, mostly at Casey.

  • 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
