5/5 so far. (Unfortunately didn’t put money on it so kinda happy if one of tomorrow results doesn’t salute)

Literally every result has gone our way so far, although North beating WC doesn’t make a lick of difference to us.

Geelong losing tomorrow would be nice.

but say if you did put $10 on it how much would you have won??

😬

    😬

    $3490 off a $10 bet but I was never betting on the 7 leg multi so I can’t complain.

    The combination of winners so far this round is absolutely sick.

    That shows the Brisb loss for us.  Since then we have had bad losses to WCE and Freo.

    As we know any team can win on any given day.  However, I wonder what the circle looks like for teams with 3 bad losses (we get a mulligan for the Sydney loss).

    maybe the umps can tell us who will win the remaining games 

    Umps seem to be stacking up the ladder. Geelong and Carlton winning would help this. HQ would prefer Pie$$$$$ tomorrow.

    All teams coming off the bye have won this weekend including 2 upsets

    I wonder how useful the 'Circle of Parity' is, as I don't see much correlation between each teams results.  What it shows is each team can have a bad loss at some stage; it is just 'raw data'.  It doesn't say much about performance or usefulness as an analytical or predictive tool.

    If it is used to explain performance it is better to look at the trend (and we aren't trending so well right now).

    This qtr shows no team is immune to pressure. Even the best team in the comp by a mile. Makes me wonder why some teams just don’t dial it up more.

    Good. i backed them at the line.

    Tis the season for wacky results.

    By, the by, comimg into this game the cats have lost 4 in a row, including having had 160 points on them by the suns (who couldn't manage 50 points in their loss to the saints last night).

    The giants have lost four of their last 5.

    Is anyone writing either team off?

    Nah, only us. By our own supporters.

    Neither of them lost to the Eagles or by 90pts though.

    Well, nor did we.

    But if you are making comparisons, we haven't lost four on end.

    And the cats were every bit as bad  in that loss to the suns as we were against the dockers.

    Your implication is that dees fans have 'written off' the team?  Easy to generalise but some examples where that has happened?

    And not sure what you mean by 'written off':  Finals? Top 4?  Premiership?

    The facts are:

    • our recent results (trend) is not good.  Ditto other teams vying for finals. 
    • Top 2 for us is virtually impossible. 
    • Top 4 is a challenge. 
    • We will make finals and it is up to the team to perform from there. 

    Still a long way to go !!  No reason why we can't go all the way.

    Swans don't have the same hometown umpiring advantage like you see in Adelaide or Perth

    To be fair, I've been trying to write the Cats off since 2021.

    Bastards refuse to die.

    I feel like using the evenness of the competition is giving this group an excuse. The coach and players have already come out and said last week was unacceptable, even Lever said in an interview that complacency has seeped into the group. I absolutely expect a fierce response tomorrow and hopefully it continues on after the bye.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • 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.
