Hopefully we will see 

1- forward line strategy being worked on asap (including no one trying to kick goals from 50 metres out) 

2- Trac and Viney and sparrow and Clarry and Hunter and Salem all learning how to hit a pass on a forward entry and not a Hail Mary aerial bomb into a 12 player pack !!! 

3- players using the corridor and then turning and moving the ball on ; not slow and wide to Hunter and Langdon as safe slow nowhere options that lets defensive unit setup

4- Kozzzy crumbing a pack from front or behind and not on side 

5- Grundy taking contested marks. (Need him this week. ) 

6- goalkicking practice (in real action contests) and goalkicking confidence (including Trac needing daily sessions so he doesn’t handball off within 15 metre of goal) 

Hopefully we don’t see or hear 

1- any more injuries 

2- Goody talking about learnings again and again 

3 - excuses … we have so much talent and underperforming in ‘22 and potentially ‘23

 

 

It’ll be the sole reason we don’t win another flag. 

Forward connection and turnover transition is what they need to work on preseason drill after drill after drill. No more excuses. 

Lions are ordinary bar a few decent players but they play their system and use their advantages so well.

Look out - lotsa learnings ahead.  

If anyone going can find out how Gus is doing, that would be greatly appreciated.

So you are saying that 2 sessions are enough to top up on thd skills ,systems  and available players they have had 2 seasons to get right and clearly you didn't watch either Brisbane or GWS yesterday. 

Anyway perhaps they might try and beat Carlton first.

Geez there's one eyed and there's denial

I'll be there.

We left at least 3-4 gettable goals on the table. Get those and this is a non story. Kozzy missed 1, Lingers 1, Fritta 1-2 as well.

As did the Pies in the first quarter

The game could have been all over after 20 minutes

If the players allow Carlton a fast start, say hello to 2024

Press conference with Petracca on the mobile app. 
Trac gives a good overview but does say he’s not the best. 

Anyone will do give a summary of today's session?

Lots of families out watching the training, which is nice to see.

They were doing some kick pass drills when I arrived but stopped before I noticed anything (or anyone) interesting.  

They've split into two groups.  One is running a light defence and forward entry sim (all the usual defenders involved, split in to reds and white bibs).

The smaller group seems to be practising crumbing and kicking for goal (from the right pocket). Grundy and Jordon are in this pocket, with Kyah Farris White also kind of just shadowing.

Sestan is doing resistance training.


Ooops I lied, there's a third group on the other side of the ground from where I am.  Similar forward sim, but too far to see who exactly involved.  They've now consolidated the two forward groups and are debriefing.

The defence team is also debriefing with Chaplin.

Max walking around perimeter and signing things - assume things will wrap soon and the rest of the boys will do the same.

 

No Clarry.

Daniel turner with the forwards.

Harmes not training likely confirming hammy news from vfl practice match.

  • 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.
