Was wearing special protection, I noted?

    I thought he looked hampered in the first half, and then played one of the best last quarters you’ll ever see from an inside mid.

    I’ll back him in, even with one hand.

    wonder what he had for breakfast Ch 7?

    It was really obvious at times before and after the game last night how much he was favouring the hand. Didn’t shake right hand after game, avoided using the hand in warm ups. Hopefully he gets through Thursday ok.

    I would rest him this week if there is any real problem - and it seems that there is. The Adelaide mids are not threatening. He is too valuable to risk.

    I would say that in order to get the tick of approval to wear the hand guard, he would need scans to show the AFL he needs it. And of course they would need to check that playing with the injury is not going to cause further or permanent damage, and it’s just about pain management. 
     

    We absolutely need him against Brisbane, so I would make that game a priority and give him a rest against Adelaide if it’s a case of one or the other.

    I propose the collection to be auctioned off at the Best and Fairest. Quite an artistic piece, really. Turn them into a photobook; each one with match details and a highlight photo on the opposite page of the magic hands at play.

    Can they get a premiership cup into one of those scanners?

    With a short break, I’d consider giving him a week off and prepare him for Brisbane. We have good depth, Sparrow and Salem could cover his midfield time. Kossie also an option with AMW to come in for his debut.

    If it’s not getting worse then he’s still better than whoever would come in to replace.

    Yes i agree with this... bring Sparrow & Kozzy's CBAs up.  Maybe bring in Moniz to take some of the Kozzy forward minutes and to give him a taste at the top level.

    I wrote in the post match thread he's my favourite demon ever but i wanted him subbed off because he was only clearly playing with one hand until he just did what he does in the last quater.

    He wasn't right.

    I reckon if we subbed olhim off we would have lost.

    I hope he's ok.

    Maybe rest him against the Crows

    He was not quite right against Port but still dominated in the last quarter. Not sure we would have won without him. 

    Can't take the Crows lightly. When do we ever have an easy game against them at AO? They'll be getting the blowtorch treatment all this week so will come out fighting. It's going to be a tough game.

    Clarry has to and will play.

    • 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.
