Mate just enjoy a win

There probably won't be too many this year

And to kick 12.2 under extreme pressure is a fair effort in anyones language

Cheer up Stuie

Still did not play near a full game of footy!

What can they take out of thr last quarter - can we maintain that effort next week?

Mate I hope so

Saw some real commitment all over the ground in the last qtr from all the boys

Hopefully the boys can take some confidence from this

Terrible first 3 quarters, but I loved seeing the heart in the last quarter... it shows what we're capable of.

Even if it is GWS its great to be on the winning end of 12 goals in 1 qtr for once

Still a lot of hard work to do - I hope for some at the club it confirms that hard work will pay off

Yeah congratulations boys, you played 1 quarter of football.

FFS Stuie, they are going to be few and far between, just allow yourself a few hours of enjoying the win. Tomorrow we can conduct the post mortem of what occurred in the middle two quarters

I'm enjoying the win, and I hope we get some much needed confidence from it, but it just feels a little bit like wallpapering over the cracks you know? I hope it's a turning point, but the first 3 quarters tempered my hopes somewhat.

Mate spot on

No one thinks our problems are over now we won 1 game - just a relief and some pressure of the club and no embarrassment for us supporters

Lack of run and fading in the middle of the games are still big issures for whoever is coach

We can all hold our heads high tonight though after that last qtr (for a week at least)

Some would say sacking the coach was doing the same thing

Enjoy a win mate - next week I am sure we will be arguing again

I know what you say but we can address the bad tomorrow. Wins will be rare this year but living in Perth I go to work tomorrow after a Dees win and both WA sides losing, that will be even rarer!

Sure ... If you want to disregard the first 3 quarters then we might even make the finals.

Yeah congratulations boys, you played 1 quarter of football.

Like WC last weekend against us?

FFS. No, we weren't perfect. But we still had a very good win.

Doesn't matter who they played today it was still the highest scoring quarter in the History of the football club. Conference is a weird thing, all of a sudden you believe. Take that to QLD next week and who knows we might just be 2 and 3

WC had more than 1 good quarter against us, look at the stats, specifically the uncontested possessions in the first half.

Fair call mate

But enjoy that the boys could pull that out of the bag

People here are willing to bag the coach and the playing group for the losses - How about a little acknowledgement when they preform well?

No one thinks we are back - but [censored] me the boys and coaching staff showed some guts at 3 qtr time

We all know our spread sucks, and that's why we NEVER win the uncontested possession. To point to that as a sign that West Coast played great last week is pretty disingenuous.

Confidence is everything in footy and these blokes have copped it from everyone over the past 3 weeks

It's easy to drop your head - it's a lot harder to come out and fight...

As i've said we are not out of the woods - 1 great qtr agains equally poor opposition is not proven success - but let's hope the boys can build 2 qtrs out of what they acheived out of the last qtr today

I didn't say they played great, I said they played well for more than 1 quarter.

Can't even enjoy it for 5 mins... Knobs.

Great effort to keep pushing and working, a long way to go but kept it up running out the game and smashed the last qtr.

Please be the start of some sort of turn around. I will not get my hopes up.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
