In January 2019, the then Adelaide player said in answer to the question which team she looks forward to playing against the most and why:-

“Melbourne, we haven’t beaten them yet and my best mate plays for them so we usually chat a little and the banter is always good”.

    Sarah Could well be the icing on the cake and ensure that even on bad days (like the Saints) we will Not kick ONE  goal and many behinds to lose unexpectedly to a lesser skilled and more accurate opponent.

    So who is her best mate?

    Kat Smith presented her jumper so maybe her?

    Glad Sarah gets another go around this week, but as soon as someone else becomes fit, unfortunately that's it for her per the rules.

    I’d get Sarah to stay at full forward in the next game... she’s a much better bet than Tegan Cunningham.
    Tegan’s got the fumbles, and really is unlikely  to kick a goal from any more than 5m out.

    Wasn’t it ridiculous when Sarah was called off the ground after her goal, ran 150m, then sent back.!?

    She recovered quickly from this.

    If I was a coach I would NEVER take a player off the ground straight after a goal. All clubs do it, and I think it could be worth 1-2 goals a game to a team gutsy enough to go against convention.

    If the Dorks are to come into the AFLW next year (i'm already of the belief the expansion of the AFLW has been too rapid and spread the talent way too thin), i'd assume she'd be playing for them.

    Hope we get to see her going around in the red+blue again.

    no chance now that there will not be a VFL season this year.

    I don't think the Hawks were going to be in until 2023 at the earliest anyway. I don't see how they could have added more teams while the current 3-year CBA was in place. All irrelevant now, as any more expansion is surely put off altogether. Which is what most fans/women's footy people wanted anyway, since 2017!

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
