Why try in the last round when you can improve your draft hand by 2 places.

What happens if Suns put in their typical years end shocker and Norff have a chance of winning?

Win and Reid goes straight back to Eagles. Norff game is first which complicates it more..

This week’s round is a race to the bottom for a number of teams.  We will know the landscape before our bounce.  Want to death ride the shockers one last time and I hope we get up.  
bombers stung into action against pies who don’t care.  Roos hawks and lions.  Crows Port and demons.  And in the august premiers special?  The giants with Carlton getting a bag of injuries.


Can't help but have a laugh at the AFL who were salivating over all the final 8 contenders 2 weeks ago. How will we manipulate the fixture so we'll have maximum exposure.

Now all they have is a yawn fest with GWS v Blues being the only game of interest assuming Dogs can beat "cue in the rack" Geelong.

Perhaps the competing clubs could take a cue from the pole vaulters last night and just declare all the games a draw.

Also ironic that the one extra game of the season forced on us by the Gather round fiasco has been such a fizzer.

It’s hard for the AFL to make an argument for the ‘integrity of selection’ when you look at whose being rested by  teams outside of the 8 this week.

They should implement a draft lottery, or implement a system where a limited amount of changes are able to me made each week over the last 4 rounds. They do it with rotations, and they can easily do it with team selection.

This weeks footy is a joke. I’m particularly annoyed at Geelong. They waffle on about the importance to their supporters of playing down there, and then scrap half the team for this weeks home game because it doesn’t suit them. It’s really poor.

 

Not so sure Geelong ,particularly Scott would toss the cue in the rack and go fishing at Lorne. They still have a game to win at home in front of thousands of kitty cats.

They'll want to win. Pride??? One rung on the draft ladder is  nothing to them. Mother time has caught up with Hawkins Rohan , Smith and some. Time to go avacado farming.

Having said that,doggies wont get a better chance of winning at kitty litter park.

I wish the Crows would stop crying about last week. Entitled knobs. They kicked 4g +8pts to 1p in last qtr.!!!  Thats why they lost.

If GWS beat blues (highly possible) they wouldnt of made it anyway. Who says crows will definitely beat the Eagles in Perth ?

Stop crying. Your fault you missed finals.

The karma bus hit the AFL.

Stopped, and backed back over the AFL.

The AFL would have had their final round drama if the Keays goal had been awarded.

And the reason it wasn't awarded is they've had 14 years to get the goal review system, brought in to prevent exactly such howlers, right.

And have still not got it right.

Hmmmm I'd like to see the reaction on here if it was us instead of the Crows.

So assuming Lions beat the Saints, Port have nothing to play for on Sunday and their opponent Richmond has even less.

Will be interesting to see if Port have a few Sunday morning niggles

North half backline has 3 players around 183cms with Sheezel named at CHB.

Roos have Reid in the bag.


I ntice the saints are resting King. Interesting. They lose and we lose sydney gets a home final first week. Interesting.

So many "injured" players!

Pies will win even with 12 players

Cotchin and Reiwolt are "managed".  must need a week off prior to mad monday

Sam W to kick 12 against the Pies !!!

Looking at all the selected teams, apart from us and the Blues, seems everyone else is taking the [censored] with selections. 


What if the AFL set draft positions (for bottom 8 teams only) in RD 22,  unless you go on to make finals? That way teams that can still make finals in R22, will be too far out to purposefully try and lose as it only sabotages their finals chances? Also means R23 & R24 have no impact on draft selections unless you drop out of the top 8. And if you drop out of the 8 with one round left, that means you can still get into finals. As you’ll only be percentage or a game out. 

Won’t cover everything but should at least mean only the 15th/16th/17th/18th teams will try and lose to secure draft positions in RD22 (which is what’s happening with field tactics anyways).

We did see on 360 the Monday before. Matthew Nicks "we have to trust the Goal Umpires, I just hope it doesn't happen to us"

Have a sneaky feeling the saints could spring a surprise. They've been playing pretty well recently.

I’m 1 behind the leader of my work footy tips so I have to pick the right roughie.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
