Christian Petracca hairline fracture.
I’m sure that Tracc is in great hands with our medical team. He will not play if there is risk of further damage, or his performance will be significantly hindered if he takes the field.

VOTES: QF vs Sydney
6. Oliver - Simply outstanding. Absolutely busted his gut for our team. 5. May - Excellent overall, but gee, it’s hard to overlook the couple of critical clangers. 4. Petty - Great throughout. Solid as a rock under enormous pressure. 3. Langdon - Just the usual from Lingers. 2. Fritsch - Solid game. Wish he had a bit more help in the front half. 1. Sparrow. - Was next best imo, but there wasn’t a lot of competition.

POSTGAME: QF vs Sydney
They brought their pressure, we brought ours. Theirs was better tonight.

Joel Smith medi sub.

AFLW GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs North Melbourne
Libby Birch and Paxy. Thank you! Gee I hope the margin is bigger than that in our favour in the next game.

GAMEDAY: QF vs Sydney
We thrive on the big stage, and have timed our run into September perfectly. Two or three goals up at the half, a third quarter blitz led by our mids, and then cruise control to keep them at arms length in the last. Dees by 8 goals.

Great lineup, a winning team (imo)!

Farewell Luke Jackson
Gee I hope the media whispers are correct. It would be a huge fillip for our team if the big ‘Spaniel’ announced an extension during the finals series.

CHANGES: QF vs Sydney
I understand where you are coming from Red. Joel is unlikely to be a 'game changer', but that's not his role as medi sub. I just think he has the attributes / flexibility to adequately slot-in in a variety of positions around the ground, and to do so without the need to make significant 'in-game' changes to team structures.

CHANGES: QF vs Sydney
Well we know we’ve hit a ‘sweet spot’ at the right time, when recent discussion in the Changes thread is focused primarily on who will be our medi sub. For what it’s worth, I think Joel Smith’s versatility gives him the edge over other candidates.

PODCAST: QF Preview vs Sydney
I found the Ian Munro interview with @Whispering_Jackand @Demonland totally absorbing, and a real ‘eye opener’. I reckon ‘Between the Flags” is a must read, especially for Demonlanders of my vintage, who lived through our ‘golden era’ of the1950s and 1960s, and stuck fat with our beloved Demons through the (seemingly) interminable 57 year drought. Hey Mrs Deeoldfart, I now know what I want for Fathers Day.

PODCAST: QF Preview vs Sydney
Thanks for another top notch pod guys. Consensus amongst the panel that we will win the QF. I like that!

PODCAST: QF Preview vs Sydney
Q. Assuming Salo is fit, can we fit both him and Bowser into the team? They both add value with their ball use.
-
CASEY: QF vs Sydney
I was impressed by Casey’s game plan, and in particular their ‘team’ defence, which to my eye, is clearly modelled on the way our AFL team seeks to play. Transition of players into the senior team should be relatively seamless in terms of their understanding of what needs to be done in the heat of battle, and when.

POSTGAME: AFLW Rd 01 vs Adelaide
Outstanding season opener, away from home and against the reigning champs. Loved the tackling pressure, handball to advantage and composure of our defence. Fantastic stuff!

2022 All Australian Squad
Kossi a bit stiff I reckon, but there are a few decent small forwards around at the moment, and the selectors would only be looking at goals kicked and not the less obvious stuff.
