Looks like McDonald in the whites jumper (B team) and Kynan Brown in the Blue (A team) at training.. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Oh for goodness sake...surely they're not even remotely considering dropping our best defender from last week.

    Well Petty is coming back through the reserves and May will be in for Lever so I reckon McDonald stays in.

    Interesting that Petty's confirmed VFL this week because he hasn't played for 4 weeks.

    They've brought back senior players straight back into the side off way longer lay offs.

    A soft drop?

    Photos could be misleading. Laurie and Brown in both white and blue jumpers.

    Petracca and Gawn also in white in one of the photos.

    Could be. Could also be that this is his second concussion this season and they want to see how he pulls up, and given our season is over in terms of finals, there’s no point risking him.

    It’s also possible that they are determined to keep Jeffo and JVR in the seniors for a few more weeks.

    I’ve been guilty of assuming the jumper colours at training indicate selection. But I suspect this is the answer.

    Today, we saw photos of the following:

    Blue - Gawn, Langdon, Oliver, Turner, Fritsch, Trac, Laurie, Bowey, Brown, Windsor

    White - Gawn, Trac, Rivers, Woewodin (albeit these four were white vests over blue jumpers), Campbell, Laurie, Mentha, Billings, TMac

    So Laurie clearly in both blue and white.

    All told, tells us little I would have thought.


    I like that they are persisting with jeffo and Kolt , but I would have like to see X get a rest, or maybe they will make him the sub

    The coaches are clearly seeing something with Sharp that I'm not.

    I'd much rather give Laurie a run.

    Reckon they've stamped Bill's card.

    Sharp was very good in the VFL last week, as was Billings and Spargs, all could be a like for like replacement.

    Unlucky for Howes who played a blinder as well

    Big midfield battle coming up, will be a good test

    He got a 3 week rest.


    Sharp will be sub

    He is a good sub option

    Very good changes overall

    Glad Petty has to earn his spot and we are keeping youth in

    I would not say Spargo was very good for Casey last week. 16 disposals for an experienced AFL player in a lower league is, at best good. I’d say he was ok.

    Like a few others, I’m slightly mystified by Sharp’s selection.

    I would have brought back Howes for Sparrow, played him on the wing, done a few other ‘swings and roundabouts’ and trialed Langford as an inside mid / forward (which is where I think his future lies).

    ………. but that’s just me, and others are far better placed than me, to make such a call!

    Out of interest, which defender would you drop for Howes?

    He is being groomed as a backman. When he’s played for the demons several times he hasn’t shown much. So a good game at Casey might not be enough to work his way in

    • 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.

    • 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.
