Has anyone else noticed that we have lost almost all the real speedsters off our list in recent years ?

This has happened when genuine leg speed is a very valuable commodity.

Jeff Garlett was probably cooked so no great loss.

Sam Frost would probably get a game with us today.

Oskar Baker - probably Casey material.

Toby Bedford- would be very, very useful.

Jayden Hunt would also be very handy as a line breaker.

Maybe the BT doesn't value speed.

We have Windsor who is super fast.

Kozzie is no slouch 

Langers is still spritely.

But yea I hope we shop for a couple of speedy players for 25.

Bowey, AMW, Windsor, Kolt, Kozzy. If anything, we've net added pace.

C’mon cranky.

bedford would be good but the rest are list cloggers and Jeff Garlett retired years ago… 


Sam Frost gets a game with us today does he? 
I will call May and tell him he can retire now because FROSTBALL is back.

Don’t forget Kade Chandler also V quick over 20m, Kynan Brown also looks quickish judging from that run down against Roo’s and racking up 24 tackles last WE, but only a kid.

 

I think we have decent pace across the field. 

Its in the middle where we have often had issues but with the inclusions of Rivers, Kozzy, Windser, and hopefully more this off season I'm hoping this wont be as much of an issue next year.

Frost is getting a game in a team playing much better than us at the moment. He'd be well ahead of Lever this year.

Garlett, Frost, Baker, Bedford and Hunt. Pick any five players on our current list and make the switch, would we really be anything more than incrementally improved?

Overall our team is faster than it was four years ago and in particular we've added considerable speed in recent drafts in every position.

The anti-club Gish Gallop coming from some directions is getting more than annoying.

 

 

Not really

Amazing.

I'd love to hear your evidence for this. Actually, no, just go away.

Does Demonland do bans for sheer wrongness?

Agree with the slow midfield.  They are all very good players but.....  Rivers adds a bit and Kozzie (but he's small for a permanent midfielder).  But we've had that problem for years and been able to get around it. Its partly the reason Max gets 90% hit outs but we only get half the clearances.  And when we don't have Max like last week it shows up more.   But when it's wet our stronger bodied midfielders win out.

He's the ex player that keeps giving.

No doubt cranky would’ve been one of the first asking for Frost to be delisted… now all of a sudden he’s the greatest full back in history

I would not have Bowey or Kolt down as speedsters.  They go ok but not up there with the likes of Moniz & Caleb imo.

Should've gone harder to keep Bedford and personally felt we should've retained Hunt who played a strong part  in us winning silverware in 2021 during the H&A segment.


I actually had to triple check the date of this post. 

When any team gets beaten they look slow.

We do have some quick players. Some of these are young and will only get better if not quicker - the names of our speedsters have already been mentioned

 

Come on Crank. There's an old saying in Canberra - never get between a state premier and a bucket of money. If Kossi ever become premier of WA, he'd be out the front door and half way to the airport before the other premiers had pulled out their ATM cards.

Yep, totally.

  • 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.
