5 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

we need cunningham to lift deep forward

Don't we always ?

 

Probable 2 goal turn around with the sheparding free against ?Paxy mid 2nd quarter was the difference. We feel like the better team but Brisbane take their chances. Should be a good 2nd half. Hope Daisy is ok!

 

Lions pressure was very good that quarter.  We are fumbling as a result, we just have to be cleaner.  Bris were v impressive last week against North.  I had forgotten that Meg D is another defender who is an unreliable kick, our defence is full of them, our midfield needs to keep helping out.  That Colvin act that resulted in a 50 meter penalty and goal was costly too.  We will need a huge effort in the second half to win.  Great efforts by Shelley Scott and Zanker so far.  C’mon girls.

Half time 3. 1 to 5. O to Bris

Brisbane made the most of the opportunities.

Good quality game, hard run. good pressure, backlines of both team repelling the play.

bears just look a bit better, and they don't miss

and thanks to @Demonland for putting the match day thread on the 'main' forum today but it's clearly influenced the result

it is such a bummer to see daisy with that massive brace on her knee

 

3 quarter time.

4. 1 to 6. 0 Brisbane way

Hard gut running football.

Melbourne don't give up. They are trying to construct a win, they are almost.

Hoping Brisbane fade in the lat.

Paxman back to midfield,  Scott in the forwardline. 

 

They look better than us but we are hanging around ....... close enough, but we need a big last quarter.   Time for Paxy, who is having a stinker by her lofty standards, to lead from the front. 



The skills are getting so much better and the fitness for woman’s footy is incredible nowadays. Come on Dees bring it home!


I wish the men played with half the heart of this team. They are an absolute pleasure to watch.

Well that was exciting.

Well done ladies. Home with a wet sail

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
