Itโ€™s been changed to high possession hand-balling game that keeps the ball moving forward as quick as possible. Problem is we donโ€™t have the skill to do it, so it only works now and then.

Casey were probably even worse proponents of the gameplan judged on their first half yesterday

Well the fog has lifted and I dont believe we can progress to finals where the Goody style could pull off another surprise.

So we can now deal in a dignified fashion to find a new coach and perhaps team. I am reluctant to recommend wholesale list management as we obviously have some champions in the group and also some very useful support.

With a temporary President, and CEO we now have a temporary coach. Lets use this period wisely to asses our next action.

Spot on. The brain is a wonder, but it can also work in mysterious ways.

Last night, I randomly dreamt about that round 9, 2021 match vs Carlton and woke up even more angry at that 1.7 final quarter than the result yesterday. Out of all matches to suddenly remember, it had to be that one.

Old habits always alive in spite of success and in a span of less than 5 years, we have experienced the highs and have been quickly bought back to our usual level and mediocrity of 2015.

We were never alive this season in hindsight, we were kidding ourselves.

With the season over effectively for nine of the 18 clubs my mind has turned to the nature of our competition and to wondering if like the EPL we need parallel competitions to maintain our interest.

The bottom nine are now only playing to "shape the eight". Having done that for 20 plus years after 1964 it no longer floats my boat.

Is there something else after death?

It doesnโ€™t float mine either. Watching ordinary football isnโ€™t that enjoyable


St Kilda have won 2 of their last 12 games. One of them an embarrassing loss for us. We are equal on the ladder and ahead marginally by percentage and after today we will likely go below them into the bottom four where we belong.

That's how well we are going.

So Goody keeps his job why? Sure won a flag & 2 finals in 18 vs 2 x straight sets & no finals in 17,20,24,25 is it the flag which is saving his bacon? The team is playing poorly and 2nd bottom 6 finishe, One score dosent make a summer!

Why ?

Short answer, because there's no one to sack him.

What should happen and what will likely happen.... 2 different things unfortunately.

We desperately need a circuit breaker as currently its like a b grade Halloween movie on repeat.

  • 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 Deearmyโ€™s inclusive bannerโ€”"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 Collingwoodโ€™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.ย

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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.
