AFLW: The Run Home

Featured Replies

I’ve watched a few of the women’s matches and have been impressed by the inside 50’s effort. Unfortunately, it seems easy for the opposition to bring it back out. I think if we can hold it in there or better still, convert more efficiently, we have the game style to produce a winning score.

Ladder after round 6.

 

Basically any of the top 5 teams can make the GF (if I have the logic right).

From the Top -  If:

  • Bulldogs win - in GF at Home
  • Demons win - in GF at Home
  • Crows win can dislodge loser of Bulldogs vs Demons and into GF as they have extra points for drawn game
  • GWS win can dislodge loser of Bulldogs vs Demons and go into GF as they have extra points for drawn game
  • Both Crows and GWS win the one with the higher % will go into the GF
  • Lions win go into the GF if Crows lose and their % is better than loser of Demons vs Bulldogs.  (This is the only scenario in which our % counts).

We must win next week!  Or we rely on Lions to beat GWS (by just a small margin)  and Pies to beat Crows. 

We might look back and rue the game we lost badly to Freo after having the proverbial 'unassailable lead' at the end of the first quarter

Again we hold our destiny in our own hands!  Go Dees!

 

Thanks to @dl4ethere is another outcome -  a draw with Bulldogs will see both teams into the GF

Yeah. Still nerve wracking. I guess at least we don't have to play the bulld..... wait....

If indeed there is a draw next week, won’t GWS pass us on percentage if they win big?

Win big a big thing. Only a couple of points to play with against them but brissy win by a goal anyway.

To make the gf we have to beat Footscray at at their home ground. Not a happy hunting ground. Are we set for another 1987 thriller?

Really bad luck for Mel bloody horrible ,we are going to miss her   

Yes bad news for Mel but we probably won't miss her too much as we have a ready made replacement in Jakobsson who will, hopefully, be right to return from injury. Very much quality like for quality like. 


Yea i understand that and your right but she's 33 and has been with us from the start, i really hope she can get back it will be hard missing the first flag

Potentially silly question - what date is the Grand Final? Is it next Saturday or Sunday?

Google searches giving me nothing....

On the Saturday, and there saying it's likely to be at Ikon park, as they don't want to run it before one of the mens games. Kinda makes sense as besides Brissy (who are only a small chance of making it) all other mens teams play on the Friday or Sunday.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
