well that was bloody enjoyable

nice to see footy without the rugby scrum. good skills

and better still, the dees win....yay

Marking and kicking skills were good for both teams. Handballing and awareness of being about to be tackled were the weakest points I thought.

yep marking and especially kicking were a feature

picking the ball up cleanly off the ground the weakest aspect generally

oh, and some of the tackling was excellent

Wow. Seriously? This is the level of Demonland now?

Total lack of respect shown to the girls by this website.

Even the thread title is a disgrace.... The other game... Why not MFC woman's game Demons Vs Bulldogs?

How hard is it to show our own club the respect it deserves.

My silly comments were made in jest of course but I am glad Stuie managed to pick me up on it.

As for the game.

Great spectacle,and a very good standard of footy.

Well umpired and highly watchable .

Hope to see more of it.

Fairly brutal watching girls crack their heads open I must say but FULL respect to both teams.

Sounds a bit like "I'm not racist, but...."

Exactly the same.

The league cut the game by 90 seconds in the last quarter. No idea why. Even the commentary team was caught unawares. They said there was two minutes to go and then said "No its only 18 seconds" The clock still showed 90 seconds. No respect to these players. It was a very enjoyable game.

The game was running behind time. There was an obligation to finish the woman's game by a given time (for the start of the main match), probably a broadcaster stipulation.

Yes but the reason I have been told is that the Men required 1 hour warm up. FFS as if 90 seconds was going to make a difference. Should have dumped Mike Fitzpatrick's insipid presentation speech saying how surprised he was that it was "tough". Annoyed a fair few players with that patronising quip. You wonder about the AFL. 170 odd new teams registered this year. That's a hell of a growth rate which should be getting the AFL excited given the problems they are experiencing.

i don't see anything wrong with saying how surprised he was that it was tough

unless you have anything against honesty

i found it tougher than i had expected, and that is in no way patronising

we all know it is get fitzpatrick week, but to hang him on that comment is being over zealous

as for the excuse over the lost 90 seconds. pathetic by the afl. i bet the doggies were impressed with less than a kick in it

you only have to ask yourself if it was an afl double header, would they have cut the game short.....no fn way

Typical superior white male condescending attitude.

I've come to expect nothing less!!

    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.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. 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
