Laurie is a small forward with no real pace but has footy smarts. Perhaps that’s he only real position.  Hes not a midfielder imv 

Or an AFL level talent.

Moniz has so many possessions because he is running hard with the 1-2 and linking up. Sadly he isn’t the one who ends up kicking inside 50. Great half of footy. 
 

Seaston played Q1 inside 50 and now playing Trac/ANB roll of being around the contest and running forward in Q2 and being a difference maker. 
 

billings on the wing. Playing nice. Nothing to report, he’s a nice player. He can kick a football and run  

Laurie had a great Q1. He’s in and around, just not getting it (mainly as White is a man possessed in the centre). 
 

B Brown hasn’t really been targeted. 
 

Jeffo been looking really dangerous (just took another pack mark as I wrote this). He’s playing on a defender in Keelor who has been good today, but not a great defender. 
 

Kolt - fades in and out. Considering the number of first round picks out there, he’s certainly one of the best of them. 


Verrall is getting beaten but you can see he can play. 
 

Adams - he’s been ok. But someone needs to be Membry and if it was Tomlinson or Turner, they’d be on him. Adams isnt. So read into that as you will. 
 

k Brown - good Q2. Rotating mid, and forward.

Agree, but one can see you have no forwards present but they just kick without understanding they need to hold it up till the forwards get back it's just playing on for the sake of it, it's bad coaching full stop.

Yes agreed.  That's when you need to hit 45s or laterals.  Possibly even behind as a last resort if no other options.

As mentioned, many players miss this aspect for some reason and just blaze away regardless of what's in front.  Although some are under so much pressure they have little time to assess and they just have to dump kick.  Not ideal but its the nature of the game

 

Great to see Valentine back.  He adds a bit of solidity to the back line imho.

AMW 18 disposals 1 tackle


Casey’s lack of poise costing them a semi-substantial lead.

We definitely seem to be playing a fast get it forward game at Casey. I don't mind it as a development game as it's sink or swim if you have the skills.

How you build in that last kick into 50 is a challenge with this style particularly if the side is bereft of fast moving/small forwards.

At least you can see the germ of an idea. I prefer it to the long kick boundary game of previous years as far as skill development goes

Absolutely DJ.  You hit the nail on the head with lack of mobile small / medium forwards to present and clean up.

Moniz is one of those options imho but doing very well at HB so far.  Bill the other of course

  • 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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’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 wasn’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  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
