Too early to start a Road to the Finals post?? 🤣

We need to win 11 from 16… that’s winning 2 from every 3 games…

Sportsbet have us at $3.

Yes.

 

That friend who shows you the final season of Game of Thrones and then suggests binge watching the rest from the start.

Even if they turn out to be right, it isn't a rational decision to trust their taste.

Can’t see us not making finals and then taking the flag from 6th

Elimination final V Carlton W by 56

Semi Final V Hawks W by 34

Preliminary V Collingwood W by 29

GF V Geelong W by 7 after being 56 points down late in the second.

Only having kids would top that 4 weeks. That’s rolled gold!

Got a mid-season target for option B, wouldn't mind a nice follow-up in September. I'll let you know how it compares.


Let’s play 4 Quarters of Good Solid Football first.

Right now we are a V12 engine running on 7 Cylinders

Much tuning and balancing to be done

Happy with what you've seen though over the last fortnight, SWYL? At least in snippets...?

He was right but for Maynard on Brayshaw.

Happy with the wins, of course

But our final Quarters have been bog ordinary, for some reason

Good sides will take us apart if it doesn’t improve

Is such a dichotomy:

We want a team that puts itself in a position to compete in finals every year;

Vs

Let's take it one week at a time.

Personally I think we have way underachieved the season to date and have more upside than alot of the teams above us. The V12 firing on 7 cylinders is a reasonable analogy. Trac and Clarry are better than current form. The past few weeks we have seen what happens when Kossie, Max and Vines start to fire.

We will need things to go right injury wise from here and a few young players like JVR etc to stand up and take the next step, but if that happens, I think we are better than alot of the teams currently above us.

Who knows.

Edited by Rodney (Balls) Grinter

We have played one very good game, and two good games.

It’s not a case of ‘one week at a time’ it is more ‘ask me how we look in one weeks time’…


I dont ever see much about Ben Crowe on here. He is the best mindset coach in the business and that's what we need.

Goody, Clarry and Trac will only benefit from him.

We won the first 10 games straight in 2023 but that's not how you win a premiership look at Sydney last year.

Peak at the right time with the right mindset and do damage

My understanding is Crowe came in for the review and he's no longer around. Happy to he corrected on that point...

And @Wells 11 , we won the first 9 in 2021 (we lost to Adelaide by a point in Round 10 from memory), but won the first 10 in 2022.

  1. Beat the Eagles.

  2. Clarry & Petracca play a 3 quarter game on way back to playing four quarters! Versus half a game!

  3. JVR play competitive footy and kick some goals!

  4. Play with aggression!

  5. Then worry about the next week!

  • 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.
