Harriet Cordner at 177cm named in the ruck.....

 

Be interesting to see if Daisy starts on the HBF. Bacline looks a little weak so may be there for experience. Forward line looks pretty good. Big fan of Cunninham. I suppose Cordner in ruck doesn't make a lot of sense but O'Dea and paxman speak for themselves.

With no true ruck available, Cordner/Zanker/Scott it is for now. In retrospect we were lucky to get away with 1 ruck in the last few seasons. We'll no doubt be looking to develop L.Pearce's eventual replacement sooner rather than later.

As for this game...if it's open and free-flowing, we're probably doomed. A scrap is the only way I can see us getting over the line, we're really up against it. Maybe Casey conditions can help us instead of hindering for once! Looking forward to seeing some new players and the continued development of the rest. Go Dees!

 


Yep Nth Melb looks v strong.  Emma King will dominate ruck (with Saad?) so our midfield needs to plan for that.  Ash Riddell is underrated by the media and with Kearney and Garner it will be tough in there.  
Hopefully all our  girls returning from injury are right to go.  Looking forward to seeing Gabby Colvin, Irish girl Goldrick and Captain Daisy get out there and show us their best.   You never know.  Go Dees.

It really is a remarkable comeback by Daisy. Giving birth to twins 12 mths ago and how much her body would have changed and tonight at 1/2 time they showed a story on her coming back. She was at 94kgs after giving birth and has got her body back to footy fitness. You can sense how much the players love having her back and she is a great leader for our club. 

 

Those goalposts look like they are about to blow away. 

North just looking far more speedy and skillful in first quarter. Did look like they were kicking to scoring end  so hopefully its a better 2nd quarter.

Casey Fields really does needs some more stands and sun protection to improve standard of play and make it more comfortable for spectators.

Really disappointed in Fox commentators... haven't mentioned the gale having any effect on inside 50's... all over Nth in first Q... patronising garbage! Surprise, surprise… Dees hit back in second Q with the wind... no mention of that being a factor by lame-brain commentary. No mention of dubious first 50m penalty by female Ump (just plain wrong!) which led to a goal… no discussion of double 50 metre penalty which also resulted in a North goal... I expected the Dees to hit back well in second Q. They will have to work very hard to limit Nth in the 3rd or it's game over!

whats the scores ?

20-15 North, 2 to play in 3rd.

Emma Kearney is the Joel Selwood of AFLW. Lifts her arm to make tackles high.

There was a critical game we lost narrowly last season (or one before?) where she won a free in that fashion to goal and effectively win the game. Nearly kicked in the TV and shouted your words exactly! 

We didn’t get advantage there....why???


I’m happy for the women to get the win but I had to switch it off at half time. 
 

If you insert the letter ‘U’ into AFLW you know what you get. 

Really important win, given our injuries and the opponent. Hopefully sets us up for a good season.

Was that really neccessary?

Loved the win. Could have been a bigger win if not for the 50s and advantage that wasn't allowed.

 though Pearce was good in the 1st quarter but was wasted behind the ball after that. Especially in the 2nd and 4th when we had the wind.

    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

    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.
