Todd Patterson, our AFLW List Manager, has accepted a role as Head of List Management and Strategy for the new Tasmanian team.

From the article he will be involved with their AFL, VFL, AFLW and VFLW lists.

Todd has been with the dees for 8 years, including the last 6 as list manager,so has been a big part of our AFLWs program including building the list that won the 2022 premiership.

    That's a huge loss. I fear it is easy to underestimate the importance of the contribution of someone like Todd Patterson. He's done a great job.

    On a personal level I've contacted Todd a few times as a fan over the years and ear-bashed him about various things, and he's always taken the time, and quite quickly, to reply in full with friendly, candid responses. I really hope both he and Brooke enjoy the move and wish them both great success and happiness in Tassie, outside of it impacting adversely upon the onfield success of the Dees, of course. 😆

    I feel like an amateur fan compared to you, contacting the list manager to give an ear bashing is next level, respect!

    They were friendly ear-bashings. 😁 More like questions and discussions, I've never had anything but respect for Todd. He was always extremely polite with me despite my unsolicited ramblings. 😆

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • 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.
