I don't think I've been truly excited about the club since I was a kid and used to to get to the ground for 11am and watch the ground slowly fill up whilst watching the ressies. I do enjoy the anticipation of a new season though when the days get shorter, the leaves start to change colour and cricket pitches around the city get replaced with goalposts.

 

Living in Thailand, tomorrows game will be over by 1.30pm here.

So if we have a surprise win, that will excite me or we play like our form has dictated thus far and get belted again.

Then I venture into town to drown my sorrows and forget about the footy for the final day of Songkran (Thai New Year) with all the associated water shenanigans going on about the place.

… a debut. A debut of anyone in red and blue, regardless of who he/she is. In this case it’s Tommy Fullarton and we all need to get behind him and have faith in him.

Faith is something people grasp at in the absence of any actual evidence.

We’ve had one high in 57 years!

Roost it think back to 2014, PJ, Roo’s the wins started to come again the anticipation the influx of top end talent plus mature players coming our way, 2016 critical wins, SG taking over in ‘17 nearly making the eight, 2018 getting to a prelim, 2019 riddled with injury and a new game plan. ‘2020 Covid just missed the eight again, 2021 Wheeeee!! 2022 & 2023 H/S domination without getting the cherry through injury and pizz poor kicking, now a mini rebuild and major tweaking of our game plan, who knows what will unfurl in the years to come but I think we are back to 2016 with a lot to look forward to.

For the first time since 2013, what I'm excited/hopeful about it seeing the coach give his final press conference and a genuinely reliable operator (Smith now, Jackson then) start the assent back to where we need to be.

I can see what you see, but I am also unsure if Goodwin is the person to bring it about.

They are not antithetical concepts.

Did yesterday’s result make you see what I see 🤨

The post you are quoting says I did see what you see.

The reality of the situation is that we are behind a number of teams with how the game is played and Goodwin has only a few months to ensure he can see this evolution through.

I have been calling for it since before the end of the 2022 season and I am glad we have some momentum but what do they say about Swallows and Summer?

Long way to go before we sleep…

To me the reality is we are learning a new game plan ..it’s starting to show fruition but there will be hiccups along the way. He’s not implementing a game plan for Clarry ..Trac etc. Goody’s implementing a game plan around the raft of young talent that will be taking this team forward. The likes of our older brigade is to help build and support them and I think that will be exiting for them. Viney has been absolutely pilloried by posters here and yesterday he was exceptional. Looking at all teams this year ..I have no idea who will be no 1 at the end of it. There’s a new “media” darling every week..so I’m confident we’re heading in the right direction. That win yesterday & even the 3 point loss to GWS was exciting football. Many of our wins the last couple of years were just very boring & uninspiring

We've finally adhered to the new game plan and we can do it again and again ... but old habits die hard

But if we can keep it up, there's exciting times ahead and lots of wins in store

Getting back to that point where we can beat any team, anywhere is also on the agenda

There's enough base talent for that to happen and yesterday was a huge turning point, in my view

I'm prefer to be optimistic rather than circumspect

  • 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.
