I think we'll see Disco Turner in the side if not this week then very soon.

The footage of him turning the bloke on the mark inside out and kicking a goal suggests he knows heโ€™s too good for VFL now.ย

    I saw that. Discoโ€™s got a lot more exposure to what we want from him, and has had a taste of AFL pressure. I think heโ€™s going to be useful, and I believe the club is very pleased with his progress.

    I think a stint up forward is right in this guy's wheelhouse.ย 

    Has Laurie ever been played in the seniors as a pure midfielder for a whole game? I feel that if Oliver doesn't play against Richmond maybe it's time to find out how Laurie goes in that role.ย ย

    Not to my knowledge. Last year we used Jordon in the midfield and Laurie has only had one game at AFL level this year.

    In 2023 Laurie did not play VFL as a midfielder as we had Dunstan at VFL level. Might have played as an outside mid/wing at VFL level.

    From my watching LDC sadly I think he is one of those players who is too good for VFL and NQR at AFL level. We will know by the end of this year.

    Welcome back Mr Old.

    Yes that's my assessment to date also.ย 

    At VFL level he has a tendancy for a few too many basic turnovers andย  second to the ball a fair bit if my memory serves me.correctly.

    As you say he has plenty of time aheadย  to prove that he has what it takes though.

    Sounds like he might get a call up for Clarry for Anzac eve.ย  Will be an interesting watch if he does.

    There havenโ€™t been many games we have stuffed up over the last 4 years when overwhelming favourites. I wouldnโ€™t say itโ€™s โ€˜exactlyโ€™ the type of game we lose.ย

    Other than BBB who I think would benefit from a longer break and the compulsory in for Salem and the return of Picket I'd like to see the team settle. Fullarton in for the week to take 50% ruck and to give JVR some more forward time. Max to be used more sparingly.

    Correct, tick, no wuz.

    Now Disco needs the opportunities, albeit with some interim patience; he could well prove to be a very clean player in the senior team given glimpses of form and ability. I wish the lad well; it is hoped his confidence and endeavour take a leap into regular selection, starting this year.

    And the issue with Brown and Petty is not just a last night thing. The lack of pressure from Brown, Petty, JVR and Fritsch means we can only play three IMO.

    I disagree. If Kozzy plays, his pace makes our front half a completely different proposition.ย

      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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
