These tackles....ferocious attitude tonight 

The team look like they're 'angry' about the opportunities they've let slip this year...great to see them showing it through on field actions.

    Playing hard football, holding the ball in the forward line, looking like a team that wants to win.

    Hanks, Zanker, Lampard, Mcnamara, L Pearce,  Mithin, Gay, Heath, all contributing. Adelaide can't find any space.

    At the moment we are controlling the game. 

    Played two good quarters, keep at it, Go Dees.

    Holding Adelaide to 1 goal in a half is a great effort, more of the same thanks girls.

    Did Hanks hit the post or did goal ump think it went the wrong side? Looked a goal to me

    This is some performance!

    Tarrant is very underrated,  has been huge down back.

    Mithen is a little brute.

    Tyler Hanks is officially my new favourite player. She is an absolute gun!

    Zanker has been huge with some of the clearances and just making a lot of metres kicking long.

    She was our best last week. And has been awesome again.

    Great move playing her as a mid in this game.

    Her ability to win hard balls and get really good distance of both feet has been super important.

    What, 18 to 3 inside 50's, umpire gives us a junk time goal. Two frees in a row, probably there.

    5. 6 to 1. 3

    Hore stepped up.

    Continuing our style of game.

    Go Dees.

    I have reallt enjoyed this season of AFLW. 

    The AFL are on a winner in their war with rugby and soccer. The AFLW will only continue to grow in popularity. Meaning there is footy feb to October.

    Quite right Binman.

    When you watch the girls play locally, NE Vic for me. Very skilled players.

    I have already said to naysaying males.

    Just wait 5 years. AFWL will bypass NRL and Soccer

    In 5 years almost every player in the AFLW will have come up through junior footy like bannon, hanks and mcnamara.

    And the standard will be incredible.

    You know Hate Kore has the opposition spooked when there are four of them covering the space around her.  Shame we didn't create an alternate option in the gaps that must have left. 

    Still some problems in our forward line but the persistence in keeping it up there and not giving easy groud away means we're not being punished so much.

    As always with this team, I feel like we're just arms length from being all-conquering.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
