This is by far and away the biggest week in the Melbourne Football Club's women's history. 

We play Carlton on Saturday and simply must win to keep our premiership chances alive. Carlton like us, are sitting at 2-1 and in a short season where top of the ladder plays second for the premiership, this is do or die.

The Melbourne Football Club are the founders of this great game and pioneers of women's football. It means a lot to us. We want to and deserve to win the first women's league premiership.

The Melbourne Football Club drafted Daisy before there was even an AFWL. Prior to that she had won six league best and fairests playing for the Darebin Football Club.

Daisy was in the bests for the dees in the first two weeks but was finally moved into the midfield last week and was a clear best afield in our third win against the pies. We want Daisy to win the best player of the league in the first year of women's football. It should be the Daisy Pearce medal going forwards.

Do yourself a favour and support Daisy and the Dees this week

    I'm going to quote myself because the AFLWL isn't as popular as it could be yet. The Dees are flying and could easily play off in the GF. Get on the girls. We beat Carlton and are in it to win it. Go Dees

    It'd be a nice little platform for our men's team in 20017 too, if the women win the inaugural league cup.

    AF do we have to wait another 18,000 years for the cup?

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
