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).

Eagles got dudded by the umps.  (But no tears from me 🤣)

Yeo must still be scratching his head !!! 

yeo dragged the pill back underneath him; that's holding the ball every day of week


Swans and byes dont get along very well.

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.

Puddy Tats all over the Swannies 

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: 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
