In:  Gawn, Hore, Brown, Woewodin (Sub)

Out: Kolt (inj), Salem (inj), Turner

Turner unlucky but I think we are too tall and slow up forward if he plays with Max back

I like the idea of hore in the side to play the old Hibbard role, think we really need that ball reading ability.  If wet maybe Howes instead

Pup earned a track as did Billings from their games on the weekend

    Richmond got a crowd of 19K to their game against the Giants two weeks ago on a Sunday afternoon. 

    Given our respective member numbers and the poor forecast for Saturday night, are we in danger of falling below that number? 

    SEN seems to think so. Garbage outlet.

    There are people on here who have admitted that they refuse to go to games to "protest" against what they perceive to be poor performance of the club.

    Our own members admit they don't go to games. Hard to blame the media from having a dig at us then.

    FWIW I agree with the other posters who are concerned we will get a lower crowd than the 19k Richmond got two weeks ago. We might play well on Saturday nights but we don't draw good crowds to them, even at the best of times. I reckon we'd do better crowd-wise if this was 1.10pm Sunday.

    Apparently both May and Lever have pulled up sore and are in serious doubt/wont play??

    Could explain the Jed Adams coach talk mentioned in the training thread.

    On form he absolutely deserves to be dropped. His numbers are all down by the eyeball test is even worse, just has no impact on games.

    Unfortunately the cupboard is bare and the inclusions are uninspiring. Would've much prefered to see Brown than Laurie.

    Did such a great job defending the Freo mids as they won the first 24 clearances of the match. 

    Sparrow dropped is great news. At his best, he is slightly unheralded. He hasn't been at his best for a long while.

    So in: Gawn, Laurie, Woewodin, 

    Out: Salem, Sparrow, Tholstrup

    Interesting changes. Woey to get a full game as the 7th defender?

    When was the last time he played at Casey?

    • Shocked 1

    Sparrow out is left field but fair given our midfield was horrible last week. 
    Not sure Laurie will do better tho. 
     

    God help us with the rumours about May and Lever are true. Disco will certainly have to go back to cover May and Howes will replace Lever? 
    Surely they’d have Tomlinson as emergency if May was in doubt.

    Brown with 24 tackles deserved a call up Outstanding performance

    After 24 tackles, 27 disposals, 11 clearances and a goal for Casey on the weekend do we reward K. BROWN with a game against the giants?

    Those sorta numbers force him into the team, don’t they?? 

    Obviously not 😣

    There’s no way we name those emergencies if May and Lever are in serious doubt. 
    Brown is a bit stiff.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • 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.
