Sorry to hear Sam Frost will miss the rest of the year through a stress fracture.  Would have like him to have had the opportunity to play more finals.

Go Port

Port called a crisis meeting this afternoon, they ain't winning f all this year or any years to come.

Mentally scared as a group.

GWS and Hawks

Footy is mostly disappointing, so Port and Bris to win and be cannon fodder for Cats n Swans. Then Cats to beat Sydney by 5 goals. Boooo


Cats v Swans GF would be the worst

Did ed richards not get suspended for that hit? I don't think he did.

Seriously he was lucky he didn't break a jaw. That could have been a sickening hit. You can't just hit someone like that. It's a strike.

Anyway just hope gws and hawks win this week


I'm so sick of hearing about Hawthorn and Hokball, I find myself in the unfamiliar position of hoping that Port Adelaide kick their smug brown and gold backsides this week.

I’m hoping Port wins just to see what scarf Albo wears for the Prelim Finals

Will be supporting Giants with Jesse and Toby against the Lions.

You have my vote Jack. 


Hawthorn are in excellent form & will likely beat Port. 
 

That said any Melbourne supporter who says they’re happy to see Hawthorn playing finals should be locked in a cell for a week & made to watch the ‘87 prelim on repeat

A noteworthy fact for those who think the Demons are finished as a footy team because they missed out on the finals this year with 11 wins.

Of the four teams playing in semi final weekend 

• we defeated HokBall earlier this year 93 - 39 before it even existed as a thing;

• we defeated Port Adelaide in Adelaide during Gather Round and lost to them by a mere 2 points late in the season;

• we lost to the Giants by only 2 points at the MCG in the latter part of the season; and

• we lost to the Lions by 5 points in Brizvegas after they received a controversial late free kick that resulted in a miracle goal from the boundary.

Those three narrow defeats were all in the last half of the season when the team was wounded. Add CP5 to the lineup and who knows? We might have made the finals.

Let’s also not forget that we were the first to beat the Cats, now in a preliminary final and we also lost to another finalist, Carlton, by a point in a game that could have gone either way. 

Still, I have to defer to that brilliant football strategist “No Diamond Left Joe” and that man who will never win a Pulitzer Prize for journalism who tell me the coach is no good. 

 

A very interesting scenario in betting odds tonight.

Despite finishing second on the ladder, well above the Hawks and playing at home with a loud supporter base, Port Adelaide are not favorites to win on any betting site.

And despite the Power's victory run in the last 6 home and away games, the Hawks seem very strong contenders with all the bookies.

Will they bow out in straight sets like us?

How much noise will there be.

Losing 2 at home where the advantage is not the same at our Mcg is bigger news.

In normal circumstances, it would be hard to resist backing Port but the Hawks ability to rapidly gain momentum and boot bags of five will most likely see them through.

Plus I hate the Power as much as Hawthorn but I hate Port's toothless supporters even more.

😀

Enjoy the game.

Ps. Sad that we smashed the Hawks earlier in the season and accounted for the Power at Adelaide Oval.

Such a hard case to find a team to support in these finals.

Probably the Johnny come lately in  GWS.

Go Giants.

  • 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.

    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.
