Im going out on a limb here but maybe consider Thommo as a defensive fwd on Weitering

He's a good kick. can run in straight lines. And good one on one.

Disco training with backs and forwards. Think he will be the sub. Don’t mind it either if it does happen.

Cannot see it happening. Thommo is too slow.

We would be better off playing Petracca forward more and getting Sparrow and Jordon to play more in the midfield.

Oliver, Viney, Sparrow and Jordon can win enough ball. Rivers can also go inside for a stint.

Fritsch, Pickett, Petracca, TMac, Smith and Chandler can provide enough chances to kick a winning score. Our average score against has been only 59 in the last four matches.

Chaos first centre bounce set up…

Gawn, Pickett, Oliver, Rivers!

I think we need to bring in two talls. I just felt we looked short on Thursday night. Carlton will bring in JSOS for Mckay

In: Tomlinson (defence), Turner/Schache (as a forward), Jordan

Out: Hibbo (I just don't think we have an ideal matchup), Brayshaw, JVR

Sub: Woewodin

Slower and less effective than TMac? Tommo isn't the fastest nor the slowest but he always competes and he puts in a good shift in the vast majority of appearances. Would be a good,safe and reliable in at either end of the park for mine....

I really think we need to play Tommo this week with Carlton's tall players, I just don't know who for. 

My current changes are

Out: Gus (inj), JVR (sus), Lauri (sub)
In: JJ, Grundy, Woewoden (sub)

As for Tommo coming in I wonder if we can have him as the sub as a flexible tall in case they are getting on top of us. I just don't see him as an "impact" player. Whereas Woey has speed and a little bit of skill and flare. His youthful exuberance could be a real asset. I also wonder whether an option to throw around is to play Salem more in the forward half of the ground just to try something new. 

I'm expecting with Grundy playing we will revert back to Max and Grundy splitting ruck duties and resting forward. A totally crazy idea would be to START the centre bounce with Grundy and play Max forward. 

I reckon Gawn’s toe injury is a non-story. Probably something he’s managed for a while now. 

However, if it’s at risk of worsening, we may need to bite the bullet and play Grundy. Given we need to replace JVR anyway, and the other options are an uninspiring Schache, an untried Turner/Tomlinson, or a possibly not fully fit Brown, I’m not against it.

Not worried about Gawn or Oliver.

Theyre playing on Friday night.

Grundy needs to come in though.

We look a bit short without JVR BBrown and Petty.

Good time to mix up the ruck duties.

Throw bluebaggers off a bit.

What's the talk about Max's foot/toe? Did he train fully today?

He trained, not sure if it was fully.


This thread is getting crazy complicated … to simplify:

JJ for Brayshaw

Big Benny for Roo (reckon Benny has been in cotton wool for 3 weeks as insurance)

Grundy as backup for TMac (love TMac but too slow and may start Grundy in the centre bounce with Max up forward.

Disco 23rd man can go forward or back

Be careful not to run into Shirley Maclaine @jmac.

Had to do a mountain more work in the middle against the pies than what they would have planned for. Can't help. 

I'm surprised they didn't use Laurie on ball at all. Even 5 or 10 minutes would have given tracc a chop out and chance to play forward. Laurie played as a mid at casey all season after all.

Or Kozzie....

I hope we harness the emotion of this week for a productive outcome. Could go either way I think 


Let's talk proper footy now.

What's done is done and all supporters can do now is move on and cheer the lads on Friday night.

Still not confident at all we win and don't know how we kick a winning score but hopefully the guys have a read hot crack.

You said it dazzle. I'm incredulous and stunned and gobsmacked 

But we have a game to play and an important one at that.

 

Time to focus on Carlton now. Friday night will be brutal and we need to be ready. We will win the flag if we can tweak our game a bit and maintain intensity for four quarters.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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

    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.
