Rarely post...so apologies if this is covered elsewhere.

The Demons, with the Dogs, are leading the field in promoting the status of women in the game

The Women's match on Sunday was fantastic and out-rated the Essendon- Adelaide game, seriously !!!

Google Tayla Harris AFL images and you will see some of the most 'balletic' and beautiful and emblematic AFL images you've ever seen

AFL as ballet. AFL as art. And skill and courage.

We need to back the Women's game.

At least invite the Women's team onto Demonland somehow?

Onto the banner perhaps??

This is something the club is doing well... Lets support it

Thoughts??

PS

We will whip Carlton and Hogan will kick 6

We sponsored them a couple of years ago. I kicked in. I'd be happy for someone to revive that.

Further to the above. Is there a poster available of that magnificent shot of Tayla Harris kicking? There should be. And, I'd pay for an autographed one.

Dirtbag.

I presume that is meant to be funny Song.

I'll let the issue run it's course. But BBO is right. That photo in the Age on Monday(?) is up there with some of the best AFL images ever.

That, and the Jack Dyer footy show image, and the Jurrah mark, and the Barassi kicking on the turn image .... etc ...IS the game ...

Cheers all. Go Dees

I've not seen a better follow through on a kicking action since Darren Bennett. Textbook stuff. And yes, Tayla is also a lot nicer to look at than the Big Dork Bennett was. Man, could that guy kick a footy !

The womens side is the best thing MFC has going for us atm.

Hell put some of them into the senior team.

Couldn't hurt.

Get daisy in the banner!

Get daisy in the banner!

Great Idea SPR she is way more deserving than a couple who are in there at present.

not sure embrace was the most appropriate word......i have horrible visions of bbo taking it to heart

how about endorse, support, encourage, promote?

Get daisy in the banner!

this ^^^^^ *100

Flamin' mongrels...

I think we should - they're 4-0 and know how to win!

I am a convert I reckon they are great. The blond ruck/forward Tayla? is mesmerising, there have been numerous photos of her in the Age, they are all incredible images. What stands out is the graceful poses caught by the camera but also her demeanour, her face looks so calm. There was one photo in the Age of her taking a contested chest mark in full flight and you would expect a guy to have a grimace in expectation of impact but she has this serene look as if she is on a casual walk in the park. Amazing images.

But I also like the centre half forward who is of Islander background I think, she can play and looks to be a real character. Huge potential here.

That's Sabrina, she's English of Jamaican heritage, came over here at the age of 9. Dees had a good Q&A with her on the website . Cracking overhead mark!

I was a fair kick, I couldn't get my leg that high. I think something kept getting in the way.

It was the jock strap dirt bags.

After watching the boring congestion and stop/start of the blokes matches, the women's game was a breath of fresh air. Free flowing, good marking and kicking, went in hard and plenty of characters. It looked like natural, open, attacking footy, the way the men's AFL/VFL was years ago. Increased ground skills will come with development of the competition. My fear is that the AFL, in their 'wisdom', will over control it, patronise it and dilute the aspects that made for good viewing.

you'd better explain for the younger members, pigdog

Absolutely, although they are a rep side plucked from womens league teams. Not sue you will get continuity of players from that.

Had the pleasure of meeting a few of the womens Doggies team at a Fitzroy ammos presidents lunch a couple of weeks back. Really impressive women, their attitude, knowledge, public speaking ability blew me and some friends away. Lauren Arnell, Steph Chiocci, Aasta O'Connell. Very athletic types who work hard on their game, and it showed in the type of footy display they put on.

It's a way of the future and we should get in on the ground floor, like the club already has.

Darren Bennett could, so it is not gender based necessarily unless you have something way out of proportion Pig?

On what I saw last week I was extremely impressed with

• Run and Carry
• Pace
• Skills
• And best of all something we cannot do in the senior team

HIT TARGETS!!

I'd happily play Daisy Pearce and one or two others in our senior team NO DOUBT!

I feel about tayla harris the same way as my missus felt about colin sylvia when he played for us ❤
