This is boring. I can’t get into 4 goals in a half in perfect conditions.

Men, Women, Aliens, doesn’t matter... boring.

I watched three quarters of last nights game. There was only 5 goals in total for whole game.

At present it is not as good as surburban reserves.

How does this quality get TV coverage?

    because at the moment it's as good as it gets?

    it's a female spin-off of the biggest sporting competition, and it's in modern times

    i guarantee you the quality of football in 1898 was probably lower than this

    in 130 years i'm sure our offshoots of offspring will be marvelling at the skill level on show

    (but yes, it's borderline unwatchable...like watching the male dees circa 2007-2013)

    Thanks for that DA I have Been trying desperately to forget 2007- 13.

    The difference is that during that period one of the teams in the contest was good and watchable. In Ladies football they are both crap.

    my question still stands how come this is on National TV?

    Go Pickles Cranston !!!!!!  What a great last half. 

    With Daisy, was the match winner for us.

    They had a real physical crack in the last too.

    I enjoyed that. Stuff the lower quality skills, the Dees had a WIN!

    Because it directly appeals to a huge portion of the population.  Women and girls get to see people just like them doing something that that may now aspire to do.  They, in turn, buy jumpers, membership and merchandise; they attend matches and join local teams; they get more involved in the men’s game when winter comes along.  The AFL isn’t doing this out of the goodness of their heart- they’re going to make a lot of money out of this brand of football.

     

    On top of that, this was a great match and we have a really good win!  Get on board!

    That game was so much better than the rubbish last night. 

    Great to see the Demons get better later in the game. 

    So often the girls run out of energy in the 2nd half

    Great win girls! 4 goals from free kicks to the orange mob. I see the AFL love fest is alive at all levels of footy.

    We should [censored] both of them- our ball movement is a class above.

    I'm not the greatest fan of AFLW  (as a spectacle), but our team wears red and blue, and that's enough for me!  I even found myself yelling at the box this afternoon, and cursing at the umpires on more than one occasion.  I must be warming to it!  Well done Demons!

    I thought Erin Hoare was fantastic today.

    Well done Dees, I feared for a while GWS have become our "Norf" in the ladies game....but that song at the end. Ahhhh!

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
