As much as I don't enjoy the injuries and mystery illnesses, it's great the Perko gets another go. As soon as we hit that 23 fit player threshold, she can't play, so this might be her last go unless they continue to drop like flies.

And the game? I can't pick it. Carlton are a good team, solid across every line and fast. It'll be a big test, especially for our defense, which has the lowest against score in the league (aided somewhat by the low-scoring poor weather games). Carlton are the 3rd best attack though, so who knows.

A win sets us up, a loss sets us back. All failing, barrack against Collingwood.

A win puts us a game and good percentage clear inside that conference B finals group, and the only way we'd drop out would be if BOTH Carlton and Collingwood have a resurgence in the remaining rounds while we fall in a heap.

We're in the old 'masters of our own destiny' situation again, and as such are obviously doomed. This week and next week against Fremantle.

 

 

 

 

Is this actually going ahead? Surely it is a bigger risk to have players at airports, on planes and in hotels than it is for them to train in front of 20 people at Goschs Paddock.

Our best football is good enough to beat Carlton, but whether it is displayed for four quarters is the big question.

Any idea why Downie and Pearce aren't back this week? I thought both had only minor issues last week.

Looking forward to this game. We must win one of our next 2 and I think against carlton would be beneficial. Hopefully Brisbane beat the filth.


I like what I'm seeing from this, we're using the ball well. Just need to finish better.

Great goal Hore! 

Dees 1.3.9
Blues 0.1.1

 

Blues get it back very quickly.

Dees 1.3.9
Blues 1.1.7

Perkins set shot from the Dees kicks truly from 35m out after some good forward pressure in the pocket. (She's a big one!)

Dees 2.3.15
Blues 1.1.7


This is the first AFLW game I've been able to sit and watch. Honestly I've found it very entertaining, they go in hard and there's no doubt that the higher skilled players stand out above the rest. Our ball use and pressure has been the difference.

Good quarter. I think Zanker is playing really well. Hore has been fantastic. Carlton are not too bad so have to keep up the good ball work.

Blues get the first goal of the second quarter.

Dees 2.3.15
Blues 2.1.13

I suspect this will be very tight.


We're following the mens teams lead at the moment, lots of inside 50s but not much result.

Really should be 2-3 goals in front.

Scott finally finishes a set shot from the Dees.

Dees 3.3.21
Blues 2.1.13

Half time Dees easily the better team but not making the most of forward entries. 15 inside 50s compared to the Blues 8 i50s.

Dees 3.3.21
Blues 2.1.13

We should be 4 goals in front. Hope they handle the heat at the end better than carlton.


Carlton's turn to be doing the attacking but no result, we then had a great chance from Newman then to score a great running goal but misses at the end.

Lampard down for the Dees with what looks to be a knee injury, fingers crossed it's not serious. Too many bad knee injuries in AFLW. ?

The skills and fitness have improved so much the last few years.

I just cannot believe the amount of knee injuries these ladies get. Another one for the Dees is devastating.

 

Just running out of players.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
