Billings was very good, what game were you watching? Agree with Fritsch, Van Rooyen and Turner!

Van Rooyen is still a kid.  We have thrown him to the wolves and he is monstered most weeks.  He needs more forward line support and I fear if he does not get more support, we will ruin his confidence.

The number of times in the rounds so far that we have scored zero or one or two goals for the quarter   Tells you we have serious attack problems ( as if we did not know) that have not been addressed.

no finals team with a chance can afford this error we need a dedicated forward coach with ability and expertise in the forward line. This is not to denigrate existing coaches  but it is not good enough.

it is wasting the talents of Gawn Viney Petrarca and Oliver not to mention Salem

May and Lever   These players were too hard to get to waste.  One flag is not enough it’s a fail !

Well we were certainly a chance last year. Despite the rampant injuries to our fwd line we still would have beaten the filth if Gus was knocked out and had his career ended. We were flat from that and with Laurie as the sub ( a very poor call) we lost. 

The year prior we struggled again with our fwd line come finals.

It is interesting that there has been a dearth of big solid experienced forwards since 21. The club tried the woeful Grundy idea but that was a huge flop. With hindsight any bloke that's almost seven foot an averages about two or three marks a game was never going to be a forward and if they really thought it put would have considered how bad Max is at goal kicking twenty out.

But we were right in replacing Jackson. Just tough times with a shortage of talls. Won't get any easier with Tassie on the horizon.

Thankfully Tmac has come good even if it's in defence.

But Bbb who started well is perhaps the Bbb of 22 finals when he was lost for them both.

And Petty....well we saw what he can do again v the cats but sadly looks back to his slump again.

I said pregame that our fwd line was a real unknown quantity.

Sure Fritta and Kozzie are reliable but the talls in Turner, Petty and now Jvr are not. So if you can stop Frittas and Kozzie than it's alarm bells.

The big news is Tracca as a fwd again but alas we are robbing ourselves in the middle.

But I'm with you....

It is incredibly l frustrating to go out in straight sets and I feel too that we are seeing a generational team slipping through it's destiny.

I do think we don't bat very deep. As said we are missing a big reliable solid fwd and we need a couple more decent mids. 

 

 

I fear Van Rooyen is the next Weideman - certainly has the same marking  traits, reluctant to chase, prefer to mark from behind. He is however a much better kick

I think JVR is following a very clear trajectory. He has some good and some bad games, but always tries. He is young but has aggression. I think next year will be the one where he will really emerge, and will end up being a Brereton-style CHF and a champion.


JVR is developing well and is ahead of reasonable expectations. Will be fascinating to see his career unfold and where he finally ranks against great demon forwards.

I suspect that you "know nothing", Schultz

JVR and Weed are poles apart - JVR shows more aggression in every contest than (great guy) Weed did ever.

I love his intent. He's still young. But I think his form last year was better than this season .

He's still developing and I believe a future very good and long term player for the club.

Oliver-Kicks to advantange every time off a step in no space and gains distance.

Billings-Why?

I don't know why people keep making this comparison. JVR kicked 28 goals as a first year key forward. Weideman has never even reached 20 goals in a season despite being on a list since 2016.

JVR certainly knows by now how not to get into the play and how not to distribute distribute possessions well. He has gone through the 'learnings' for sure; now is the moment where his interpretations and resolutions as a result of these 'learnings' turn the tide for the MFC (and his own game contributions). Don'tcha reckon?

I'll try.

He's not good enough for the AFL.

He's not big enough for the AFL

He can't kick gaols.

His player always beats him.

He belongs at Casey.

Biffen  Jack’s listed at 185cm a smidge under 6’1” so he is big enough, I thought he held his spot on Thursday night and would like to see him play at least the next four games to give him continuity and the chance to gain his full confidence. JB was a very good AFL player before a bad run of injuries. As Binman mentioned Only the coaches really know if he is ticking the right number of boxes or not.

You may be right about the coaching staff giving him games.

I doubt he is 6 ft tall and if so he’s not strong enough.

Selection  may have cost us 4 points .

I hope he proves me wrong one day but I don’t think he should’ve been chosen.

  • 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

    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.
