I have a weird feeling we’re going to kick straight tomorrow……18.6, or something like that!

Does this make you a weirdo @The Panglossian ?

Thought I read somewhere Richmond might be keen. Could make sense with the Yze connection.

Really wanted us to give him a proper run at it. Just the one game as sub for 20 minutes this year after outperforming all of Tholstrup, Sharp, Billings and Henderson is ridiculous.

that makes sense. they need players and are young so he should get more opportunities

All smacks of B.S.

    What uninspiring selection, (though Sharp is a blessing) What exactly to look forward to this week?

    Win well - big talent gap should be thunping these guys. Some of the younger players play well, some dont

    Win small - lucky to win, will get easily beaten by the better teams. None of the younger players play well.

    Lose - Meltdown. Hardly anyone plays well [Insert here] is underperforming and needs to be traded.

    Not to say I dont want to win, but surely we need to use the next 8 weeks to learn something about our list, positional and roles if you are "rebuilding"

    Spose I should wait for gametime and die of shock when May or Turner goes to FF, given their KPFs are worse than ours. No excuse not to put up 16 goals+ if the weather is fine.

    Sadly I think we already know about our list, it ain’t great after the first 15. Play Jefferson for the next few weeks ? I don’t think you will see much difference. He hasn’t turned out as hoped. Drafting is not an exact science.

    this makes no sense, we have already robbed one of our most loyal players ever the chance to play 250 games, well done to all involved..... still have no clue why he got dropped he was our second best defender at that point in the season and one of the few in the team who was actually playing well. dan turner to carry us tmr like he has every game this season, hope he is resigned because he is worth double then what he was before

    I almost invariably back team selections by our Match Committee (who are much better placed than any of us to make these calls) but I will make the observation that Fritta will need to serve up a much, much better effort than his ‘limp wet lettuce’ performance in Adelaide. He is much better than that!

    Last week I watched a far bit of the Casey game. Kentfield has what Jefferson doesn’t have Intensity! Players either have it or they don’t. We need to play Kentfield before seasons end. After a poor preseason he has shown improvement through the season. He looks like he wants the ball and he plays get out of way I am coming through.

    Unfortunately the feeling at this time of year has been unrivalled since about 2015 in terms of the flatness and irrelevancy of the rest of our season (2019 we were raveled with injuries). At least then we were building. Now we have a super talented team who don't appear to give a stuff.

    Goodwin still refuses to drop underperforming veterans because he wants to clock irrelevant wins against lower sides for his own win-loss record and survival, when he should be playing other fringe players and youngsters to see whether they're up to it. This will be detrimental to our season next year and leave us with little depth.

    • 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

      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.
