FREE TICKET.

I still have no idea how this happens but, in addition to my normal reserved seats memberships, I have a spare general admission ticket. First DLander to DM me is welcome to it.

I suspect something to do with my Kayo membership.

    Windsor has speed to confuse opponents and a good eye, upfield. Windsor tackles confident ball-hoggers really well. Windsor comes in, for me. 

    Didn’t realise Windsor was out for him to come back in?

    No change is good by me.

    Not sure if Woey has been great down back . Line ball.

    Goody doesn't really change a big margin win. Fair enough.

    Of course rohan has to come back in against us 🙄 

    He absolutely owns us. We never have a decent match up for him.

    There’s speculation he’ll be starting as sub so we might be lucky and only cop 30 minutes of him

    Hunter in was my thought too, for the same reason ie strong, seasoned player.

    I was thinking Windsor might he sub. 

    But I think you make an excellent point about our need for speed - generally, but particularly against the cats who are both quick and also play a back half, transition game.

    And Windsor out, Hunter in is a bad combo in terms of leg speed.

    So, I'm changing my prediction to no change.

    The first time I've got selection right since about mid last year!

    Hope we punish there decision to drop Parfit at the same time as Dangerfield. Screams arrogance. Hope our big 3 shreds them.

    I am going to continue to challenge the notion that we have an excellent list.

    If you're looking at the top 10-12 or so on the list, then sure, not only are we excellent but we're in the conversation for number 1.

    But the entire list? Do we bat as deep as GWS, or Carlton, or even Port Adelaide? Are we across the board as strong as Geelong, or Sydney, or Collingwood? Can our list be "excellent" given our forward line?

    I largely disagree, but really like this post and think you make a strong case.

    Im not suggesting you are soing so tu, but i think there is a tendency for fans to over rate other teams lists. 

    All lists drop away after the top 10-12, which is one reason why I a worried about the impact of the tassie team.

    The talent pool is too thin already, particularly given AFL footballers noe need to be bloody good at footy AND elite athletes.

    I take your point about forwards lined but few teams have actually scored that much more than us under Goody.

    And there's also an argument that the need for mutiple gun forwards is overated.

    The cats are a bit of an outlier in that regard arguably going all the way back to the dogs in 2016.

    Probably a bit of a learning curve for Joey in this position Deever.

    Mostly played off a wing or as an outside mid at Casey.

    Keep in mind his last game was his first full game for 2024 as well.

    Rnds 1, 3, 4 & 5 he was coming on as sub.  Doesn't really allow a player to find the pace and his feet in a match on such limited minutes. 

    Reckon he'll improve slowly as he gets more game time in general and more time in this particular role.

    He'd want to get a move on though as he'll have Bowey & Salo chomping at his heels in the next few weeks.

    Maybe he could put some pressure on Sparrow when either of those two come back.

    We are lacking in depth to teams like Carlton who have 11 players out and are doing well.

    I think we are definitely lacking depth in our midfield and our fwd line is still injury depleted or out in Smith, Bbb ( playing injured possibly, McAdam and Milkshake.

    Parfit is a fringe player at the mogs.

    He was competing for the same spot as Narkle for a while.  Gave the nod to Parfit but took them a few seasons which tells you roughly where Parfit's at imv.

    He'd have to put in a couple of blinders to push Sparrow out me thinks Deever.

    You never know but probably unlikely.

    • 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

    • 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.
