He should not have played this week. Barely trained all week and was surprised they didnt being in McStay

McRae knows his list has zero depth.

No other reason to play Howe, Mihocek or Pendelbury

Massive risk that backfired beautifully

    Agree. He clearly wasn’t right and it showed. The Pies take a risk and it failed tonight.

    A Gaping hole was exposed with a 37 y.o Pendlebury missing the entire match.

    Once Pendles and Sidebottom retire its going to hit them very hard.

    Whilst I don’t believe BM will be the best pick up we could have, I think he would be handy.

    Tonight people are ripping into him, when he’s up against one of the best defence teams in the game, who won it last year and are in another gf. Bit still to be saying “rubbish idea”.

    Have a look at our forward line and tell me we don’t need as much help as possible.

    I am typically very much for taking a risk when there's no draft picks needing to be spent

    I'd take the punt on him for 2 years. The Age article suggested there would be a trigger for a 3rd year, so basically it's up to us at that point whether he goes on.

    I can see where you’re coming from. Also we have tried for a few years to get a key forward in and he is the only one we have got one the hook.

    But…. We already have Melksham on the books who has only averaged 12 games over the past 5 years and is now a year older. Also we made this play before with McAdam who can’t get in the park. So I don’t think we are in a position to take a punt on a 33 year old with injuries. Worst case we are paying a fair chunk of our cap on 3 players on the injury list.

    I’m more in favour of planing for the future rather than next year. We are still paying for Gus, possibly paying for some of Tracs wage should he leave and as I said before have McAdam not playing.

    They should have used that new forward of theirs. Can’t recall his name. But looked good when he debuted.

    Get it done.

    Why not! No more than a 2 year deal.

    $650-700k a year, he's not worth more than that.

    I’d be interested who would be more beneficial to us in 2026?

    May at full back or Mihocek at full forward?

    We have 4 names that could all be best 22 key backs (Lever, Petty, Disco, McDonald). There's a world where Adam's and/or Derksen (should he actually exist) make the grade too.

    We only have 1 guy who is a permanent fixture as a key forward (and even that may be debatable) in JVR.

    Half the team would be carrying niggles as this time of year. It’s a calculated risk

    True but only 1 year and we are offering 2 with a third depending. unless things have changed.

    McRae said after the game they have offered him 2 years.

    Be nice to try at least one of our key backs as a forward.

    Your 💯 right.

    We couldn't attract a youngish key forward in our pomp years now we are looking at 33 y.o.

    In saying that he started his career in the AFL later on.

    He also has the same birthday as me so I'll give him that. 😂

    He was 24 y.o making his AFL debut so he would easily have 2 years left in the tank.

    Not sold on the 3 year deal on the table for him, has to have a performance condition on a 3rd year of a potential deal.

    Coming back from injury I think. Maybe to soon and should have not played.

    Along with Pendlebury, who was limping before the game start. Sad really😏

    Feels odd we are after him with a three year deal but are getting rid of May.

    I get the feeling there is more involved with May than form/ ability.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • 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.
