The Inaugural AFL Womens' Draft Thread

After watching all the interviews of our women draftees on the official MFC site, I felt compelled to start a new thread here (apologies if I have missed someone else's thread). If you ever wanted to be uplifted by watching the response of a young group of dedicated, hard working and inspired sportspeople... here it is! I'm so impressed by the eloquence, unbridled joy and team ethic that these women display. I recommend their interviews as 'must watch' material for any Demon supporter. As the male trade period drags on, these new draftees have lifted my spirit and my already healthy interest in the National Women's League to new levels. Do yourself a favour!

    Great exposure for the women's team 'waynewussell', well done!

    Hope they can cook!

    Bbo - you can be so exasperating, sometimes - that is so demeaning.

     

    On a different note the club has a new tab on our website AFLW which gives so much info about the player profiles, news etc and will soon have the fixture.  Worth a look at it.

    Pick 22 was Maddy Jones described as a "tall" 168cm ruckwoman (according to the MFC and AFL websites)! She doesn't look short in her photo but maybe we are entering a team in the Dwarf's League?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
