    It's no surprise that the cohort of foul weather "supporters" who are always front and centre when things aren't going well are conspicuously absent from this thread.

    I thought that the Eagles had a crack in the first half, moved the ball well at times but we always had their measure. 10 goal third quarter showed some real class in patches and shut them out of the game. We stayed alert and continued to build the lead in the last.

    Jack Viney 20 contested tells his story today and Clayton Oliver looked like Clarry, Max was great as was Salo and how tough is Rivers still took a lazy 10 marks. Our kids all played well and a great debut for Jai Culley, great to see Troy Simmonds hand him his guernsey today. 83 point winners are grinner’s. Great comeback Dees. kozzi had 10 score involvements but looked off today his kicking was a bit iffy.

    Culley is a good size.

    Salem 2 stupid 50m penalties from a senior player was a disgrace

    2g5b to start was ordinary before some accurate scoring later.

    Culley, great debut

    Viney a bulldozer

    Langford a star of the future.

    But ..... [censored] me ..... umpiring and rules !!! I just don't have a clue.

    Apart from a missed call to Viney which was genuinely high, I thought it was an almost faultless performance by the umps.

    Probably a very easy match to umpire with very little pressure from over the fence and one side often with plenty of space, however, they still have to execute and I thought they got every push in the back correct.

    For the last few years, it hasn’t been worth taking front position when you could clearly get pushed in the back and out of the contest and bozo commentators would say “what a wonderful job he did to protect the space.”

    What a lot of bull….anyone with half a brain is not crowing over this win …especially after last week’s capitulation and about 35% win loss ratio for the Season .A win against an under manned ( just lost their Star player ) Wooden Spooner hardly playing at WAFL / VFL level , let alone that of a serious AFL team…better than a loss but other than that largely a meaningless win…if your happy to crow about such a win good on you but you are obviously easily satisfied

    Well he obviously believes that the win has some worth or meaning as he used it to have a dig at what he calls so called “supporters “ , by which I assume he means the clear majority of supporters and members who are justifiably critical of and concerned at their team’s dismal performance this Season

    They reintroduced hands in the back, and decided to abolish holding the ball.

    Just another week of Russian roulette umpiring.

    WCE are 1 and 19. On pure wins this is one of the worst wooden-spooners. Many teams would have thrashed them today. While our game wasn't incredible at least we won easily.

    Yeah, but who did they beat???

    Did y’all see Jai after kicking his first goal? He ran in jubilation, passionately pulled at his jumper and screamed come on to the crowd. And it was real. His blood runs red and blue.

    Max’s goal kick : he decided to try something new and do a banana kick (is that the right word?)

    The crowd sighed , not confident that he could kick a goal.

    A goal!

    Good thinking Captain.

    Still better than Kellie Underwood, and her horrible commentating, including misnaming players consistently.

    • 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.
