    Hope Port keep up their horrible kicking next week

    Port looking ordinary against a depleted Richmond.

    Hopefully they have an ordinary win rather than a shock loss as we don’t want them on the rebound and having a statement game against us.

    Volleyed goal. don't see that too often

    and the ump asks for a review even though the ball was a about a meter inside the post

    Not sure about Fremantle's depth.

    Yesterday was only North but they were missing Chapman, Cox, Darcy, O'Driscoll and O'Meara, plus OMac and Worner who played last week, plus a few others (e.g. Corey Wagner and Ethan Stanley).

    Perhaps against a better side they wouldn't have won but they're 2-0 with quite a lot of talent to come back.

    And I wholly disagree that they "need" key defenders. Their best 22 defence is top 4 quality. 

    We'll have to agree to disagree, but the back six that played the Roos is, IMHO, not a top 4 defensive unit (i think I'm right in saying that Omac is the only best 22 defender missing, unless you include Corey Wagner). 

    • James Aish 
    • Alex Pearce
    • Jordan Clark
    • Ethan Hughes
    • Joshua Draper
    • Luke Ryan

    Alex Pearce is a  pretty good player, but not AA quality. And he's their best defender.

    Watching the Tigers vs Port, the Richmond crowd were a bit much when the Tiges were on top, but I'm remembering now how much fun it was to watch nuffy-cam when they were better known as ninthmond.

    Anyone know the status of Marshall's injury?

    Not wishing injuries on opposition players but Marshall out would be handy considering our 2 outs this week.

    just being assessed they said

    Chapman and Cox are defenders, Cox was in the AA squad in 2022.

    They are both better than Pearce, as is Luke Ryan. At full strength they are a strong defence and one which I think most people don’t appreciate.

    And hopefully Horne Francis hamstring is at least a 2 gamer.

    PS: Butters should be fined for staging. Just on half time milked a 50 and goal, pretending Lynch hit him in the head after a mark. Nothing said because he is a star, but not the first time.

    It's going to be a long year for Ooze.

    Tiges pressure rating in the negative.

    How many years did he get? They will win games but agree think it’s going to be a long year for him.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
