AFLW: Rd 03 vs North Melbourne

[darkhorse72 1,925]

The team is looking good, no nerves, great lateral movement with run to find space, as north are great about shutting down space.  Greta night for footy.

[BDA 22,875]

Brilliant play Dees. Great link-up play. 

[whatwhat say what 22,932]

hitting targets makes all the difference

[In Harmes Way 7,823]

Great kick for goal from the pocket Shelley Scott

[Little Goffy 14,639]

Gee, Cunnginham is beginning to look like it is all coming together.

[whatwhat say what 22,932]

interesting that neither 9 for the tennis or 7 for the aflw have got fake crowd piped in today

[loges 6,767]

Standard of this game is very good

[whatwhat say what 22,932]

tegan cunningham on fire

[In Harmes Way 7,823]

Definitely taking advantage of what seems to be the scoring end even though it doesn’t look windy

[In Harmes Way 7,823]

Great ball movement and desperation 

love Goldie in the backline

[BDA 22,875]

Goldrick is a ripper

Unselfish, too.  Huge asset.

[darkhorse72 1,925]

"signature" quarter by the dee's.  Looking like a well drilled team and everything seems to be clicking.

They said there was no wind that qtr, we got onto as we broke their early pressure around the ball.

[BDA 22,875]

The Dees have dismantled a quality opposition in that half. Super impressive.

[gs77 4,442]

On fire!  So much for AFLW being low scoring.

One of the best quarters of footy I've ever seen from our girls,  they might have had higher scoring efforts against expansion sides before but that was against one of the top sides,  the run and lateral handball game is working a treat

Hope the boys play like that this year.

[Hellaintabadplacetobe 4,294]

Best qtr of footy the girls have ever played. Standard is excellent from both teams. 

[Earl Hood 6,101]

Umpires obsessed with the push in the back rule! Any tackle that ends up with the tackler on top of the tackled, no matter how they got there is adjudged in the back! Ridiculous but it has been working to our favour this match. Glad I am not a defender these days.

Flicking between ash and the footy. What a great 2nd quarter. Nth are supposedly the team to beat. Hopefully we can continue to put the goals on the board and people start to notice us. 

Go dees!

[P-man 13,366]

We are noticeably cleaner than most other sides. Well structured behind the ball. Leading disposal getter in the league.

Could be a real shot this year.

i thought so too

be interesting to see if that sort of ruling is followed thru for aflm; will defo mean a lot frees and thus ball movement

[Dee Zephyr 19,268]

Backline reading North’s kicks well, backing themselves and playing in front. Some of the movement has been first class and that was a very exciting quarter to watch.

[dl4e 5,851]

Best half of footy I have seen from the girls. North are a good side but we made them look ordinary. I hope we can play with the same intensity in the second half.
