So, the obvious speculation is, do we try for both?

Would Yasmin be willing to move back to Melbourne for our AFLW team, so we can get the full XYZ Duursma?

Now that'd be a generational shift!

Not sure there is much wisdom in us taking a C grade midfielder to give one of our premierships rivals one of the picks they need to fix their significant ruck and defensive issues. Pass, unless he comes as a delisted free agent.


Pass. Since his debut season, he's struggled with injuries and form. After his performance in the finals, I'm not surprised Port are trying to offload him.

Gee he struggled in the finals. I hope we are not interested.

Being reported that bombers have shown interest as part of the BZT trade

"Struggled in finals" and "Bombers showning interest" right there next to each other.

I believe the kids these days call it 'found object art'.

 


I think Duursma has lot of talent. Fast, tall, long kicking wingman. He is only 22 and has suffered a lot of injuries.

Buy low.

He would be a reasonable improvement on Hunter and I think his potential upside would be worth a punt. 

Like many, a 'restart' at a new club may definitely reinvigorate him and help him to return to the form he showed when he came on the scene. Assuming you wouldn't have to give up a great deal for him, I'd be very interested.  

Wouldn’t be in our best 22 and is a clear downgrade from Langdon and Hunter, even if they weren’t great this year. I’d rather try Howes or Woe or Laurie on a wing or outside mid ahead of him. He was good in his debut season, but a lot of that was just down to his youthful energy rather than any skill. Since then he’s battled injuries and never showed form to AFL level. His finals series was atrocious. He’d be depth only and worth a token 3rd- 4th round pick that wouldn’t be used at draft by any team. 


Hasn't looked properly fit for a couple of years. Looked great in his first year. Might be a bargain for the Bombers.

Not small, but 186 isn't tall and not a great user of the ball, just what we need.

If it helps us get younger brother Willem in a couple of years, (it won't) I'm for it. 

Yes, Willem will be the best of the lot of them, already dominating at Foster as a 16 year old.

Injury prone, poor disposal and questionable decision making. 
 

It’s a yes from me

He plays tall, with long arms and big leap. I think he will be a good player.

Will probably be in BZT deal to Bombers. 

Be a great get, kid has plenty of growth pretty much had a year ruled out by injury.  Take him over McAdam any day!

  • 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.
