Here’s hoping that Clarrie can overcome his off season woes and do what he does best on the field for the Demons where he is already established as one of our greats.

 

I believe that if he can overcome his problems, he will be BETTER than before - in which case, other teams: LOOK OUT!!

Huge challenges ahead for Clayton and for the entire club and supporter base.  
But as Neitschke said, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. 
Let’s all get together behind the club and Clayton.  
It is a New Year - must look forward not backwards.

Totally agree.  Bring it ON !!!

From personal experience, you don’t learn from success, you learn from personal failures. Clarry is a legend and will come back better than ever. 


I think the best we can hope for is a fit and focussed Clarry in 2025.

Think there’s been too much damage done this year and over the current preseason 

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

He'll be back to his best.

He has a history of doing dumb things and learning from them. 

I've got faith that hell be back to Brownlow winning form in 2024.

I've said from the start-this kid will win a Brownlow one day.

 

 

 

 

I'm backing Clarry in this year to play 20+ games. He will be ramping up his training soon after recovery from his knee clean out and be fully integrated in the main group by Feb. Let's go!

Sadly I think this may be the truth. Whatever it is...I hope we as a club prioritise his health over short term playing goals. Clarry back and healthy in 2025 would still be a good outcome.

Agree, but for some reason I have this nagging thought that we might have seen the best of him! 😘

Let us hope that Clarrie has gazed long enough into an abyss, the abyss has gazed back into him and the future is bright. Loved him from day 1 as a player and could be amongst the best ever.

Get him right and we will be there for the flag again.

Get him right and he'll lead a happy and healthy life. This is number one. 

He might even play football again.

As good as trac and Max are, we are no chance of no.14 without Clarry.

So egar for a positive update hopefully soon

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • 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.
