Melbourne v Bulldogs All-Stars Women's match

[whers_jacka_now 97]

I am watching it now and Go Dees. Some serious talent there. Mo Hope for the dogs is a gun, and Cale Morton is also playing well.

[doc roet 1,287]

I'm on,

Recon some of these women would give Dusty a fright on a dark night.

Live coverage - Melbourne v Footscray

Loving it. While the game is on I see Red and Blue and my brain just goes 'ours' and the rest is details.

Thought more would be chatting about our Dee ladies.  Playing with poor delivery to the forwards, always seems were are outnumbered down there   sounds familiar.

I am watching it too and enjoying it.

The women certainly put to bed the notion that it takes years to learn a game plan. 

Exiting, attacking footy which will only improve when the league takes off next year and games become more regular.

Also no one has played for a free/ducked their head yet....

[Little Goffy 14,521]

Geez, we're losing both Harris and Frederick-Straub from our forward line, to the marquee players rule. Annoying, because it looks like good marks are the main premium type.

There doesn't seem to be any of the bullsh*t umpiring decisions in this game either!

It's spelt 'Jesse'. If you're going to have a dig at him, at least know how to spell his name.

Taylor Harris kicks further than Hogan......

Does anyone know if the 16 a side will be how the competition is next year for the woman's league?

Was just thinking that myself. She is a booming kick, and has magnificent hands also. Bloody good looking too. A face that sells memberships.

Shame she is a Lion now.

That Dees defender that signed with the Crows as a marquee player doesn't take any crap. Quite tough and physical.

Gee

Im playing well

 

[hemingway 7,627]

Brilliant, I am a convert. Exceptional skills, players playing to position. This is not girls footy it is women's footy and it is fantastic to watch. Best thing that has happened to football for a long time. Transformational.

Yeah strange we didn't try to get her as a marquee player? 

I'm really concerned my AFL season stress will continue to the women's format..... Usually summer is a time for me to unwind!

Have to agree - exciting game, quite different from the men's game. Hopefully it'll go from strength to strength.

I would like to have had Harris. She is fantastic.

This is the best of the best playing for 2 teams. Once the talent is spread out it won't be nearly as good to watch.

This game is a good spectacle though.

[3183 Dee 2,853]

Tayla Harris is a Queenslander, so probably natural that she'd go to the Lions.

Foley! Nice goal!

[PartyTimeJohnny 537]

It's such a good game. Super impressive. 

I'm real annoyed though now, what's our inside 50 conversion? Like 1 in 20?
