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!

    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???

    Great result for Dees! Great return for Daisy! With several players to return during the season... look out Dees!

    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.

    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.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
