    6 Langdon - busted his gut all night.

    5 Gawn - solid all-round performance.

    4 Rivers - our only classy midfielder.

    3 Fritsch - accurate goalkicking but still lazy.

    2 McDonald - mix of good and bad.

    1 McVee - seldom rattled under constant pressure.

    Just back and watched Gawny go pretty much one out against the Doggies and only lose by 51.

    6. Captain Max. Outstanding game, massive hit out to advantage numbers, 9 marks, 12 contested, a goal and did it everywhere.  Schooled last years AA ruck.

    5. Langdon put in something resembling an acceptable effort and never stopped running.

    4. Rivers had pretty good numbers but was largely irrelevant as the dogs mids did as they pleased. Still, at least he tried.

    3. Sparrow appeared a bit interested until the last quarter but was still substantially better than most.

    2. McVee was unobtrusive but didn't make many mistakes.

    1. Fritsch kicked a couple, took a nice mark.

    As for pretty much everyone else, hope you enjoyed watching the game.

    The Dogs are a genuinely good team.  Well done to them on the way they have recovered their season.

    They did but I would sooner have the flag.

    Sadly, none of our boys were in the top half dozen on the ground, but they deserve some recognition on here.
    My take on the better Dees:
    6.   Rivers  -  did nothing to harm the plaudits he’s earning as a future high quality mid in the competition.  Needed more support.
    5.   Gawn  -  on one leg, but attitude and leadership under duress were testament to what we’ve come to expect from Max.
    4.   Langdon  -  busted a gut, and ran up and down the wing providing options all night.  We needed more like him. 
    3.   McVee   -  again showed plenty of composure and touches of class under pressure.
    2.   JVR  -  showed enough to confirm why he’s widely regarded as a future star KPF and back-up ruck.
    1.   Sparrow. -  solid return to the ‘big time’.  Dulled the influence the Bont in the second half.

    6 Gawn - I was a bit worried that his calf injury would render him insipid and when he didn't even jump for the first ball-up my fears seemed reality. But to Maxy's credit he lifted and got on top of English in the centre bounces and he also moved fairly swiftly around the ground and took a beauty and goaled in the second term. Definitely in the best six on ground and definitely still in mix for AA.

    5 Bowey - Like many here, I've been really disappointed with Bowzer after a super pre-season. This was the first game that he actually provided run and his confident play up middle in third was our best passage for night. Gees I hope we try him in the middle one day.

    4 Rivers - He's still not delivering with his disposal but he really looks the part as a tall midfielder. 

    3 Langdon - the running man has had a great few weeks since being allowed to go back to his favoured wing.

    2 Van Rooyen - I think it was the second term when May realised JVR was way out on the opposite wing by himself against a smaller opponent and it was just so good to see our man just be so strong in the contest. He's really come a long way this season and is one reason why we don't have to keep looking for the full-forward any more.

    1 Sparrow - After being dropped last week he came back and really applied himself with more confidence. Was sent to Bont in the second and worked hard on him but the Bont is the Bont.

    Harsh on Rivers and McVee.  Definitely showed up and had good games.  Agree and rated others as 2/10 and 3/10.  Lots of passengers

    I believe that means Max can't be passed now. Unless we somehow have a deep September run. Congratulations to him.  Another wonderful season from the legend!

    • 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.
