There are player profiles on the MFC website. Her name is Chelsea Randall and it describes her as "a brutal competitor". Western Australian though, so go home factor may be a risk ;)

Love the game plan! See ball get ball. Kick long. Beat your opponent. Punch when behind. Spread hard.

I think Peter Giles is playing on the wing

Chelsea Randall is tearing it apart.

Our girl Jasmine Garner has been very lively and just kicked her first goal!

Go Dees! Dees by 31 at the moment.

Melbourne number 3

She was unbelievable. I was super impressed by the skill level. Great to watch.

Now if only the other female Melbourne team could win...

We have another female team? Awesome!

Oh, wait, you were being an useless misogynist. Good for you little man, whatever makes you feel good.

Anyway, numbnuts aside, what a great day for football; a good small step on a long road. :)

Misogynist? Putting aside the fact that I'm a female and was clearly joking, how was what I said misogynistic?

Well, the text as presented pretty unambiguously used 'female' as a reference to weakness / lack of ability. Which is practically the definition of misogynist language.

Neither your gender nor attempt at humour change that at all.

But maybe you were being sublimely ironic, referencing other people's use of 'female' as a term denoting unfitness for football, and turning it on it's head by noting that here was a competitive, winning team and gee don't we all wish our team played like a 'bunch of girls' more often.

In which case, sorry for misunderstanding.

Did you know there have even been studies about how at a certain point it becomes impossible to tell the difference between sincere extremism and a parody of that extremism? On the internet the cross-over point is very low because of the frequent lack of cues like 'scare quotes' and the tragic absence of a sarcasm font (though the use of reverse italics is being promoted slowly).

Also -

Women can play football!

Women footballers could probably play football a lot better if they were not systematically excluded from participation in all the main development pathways from the age of 12.

Chelsea Randall's daughter might have a fair shot if progress keeps being made and the idea that Women Can Play Football becomes a normal one.

Anyone know how Daisy Pearce went?

Won best on. Some really good performances across the board. Loved the work of 3, 5, 17, 18 and 31!

Going off on a tangent here, a guy I know who was doing his maths masters told me that the world is divided into 2 types of people; those that divide the world into 2 types of people and those that don't.

I know two further versions of that joke:

1. The world is divided into 3 types of people; those who can count, and those who can't.

2. The world is divided into 10 types of people; those that understand binary, and those who don't.

Totally agree on Randall. Her contested marking was awesome. The only problem is she needs better range on her set shots. Still, I would have had her BOG ahead of Daisy. Great start to the night to have them get up so convincingly. Also great to get the trifecta for Melbourne with wins to Casey and the mens side.

Does this win mean that the MFC ladies have won the Grand Final?

LOL

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
