Full time, hard fought win.

Heath big time plays, made for the pressure.

Hore and Gay, so composed.

Cunningham doing enough in the last.

Downie faded a bit, our backline kept tackling and pushing it out.

Hanks, Scott, great goals. 

Paxman what an effort in the last. Doesn't take a back foot.

Need to fix up a few dinky handballs that didn't hit the mark and cost them in turnovers.

Great team win.

    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. 

     

    Good call. You should play the lottery this weekend.

    Is there a better attribute for a team to have? they never give up. So proud of them. 

    No team will want to play us in the finals.

    Took the satisfaction of watching the final quarter.  Ahh, excellent.

    Meanwhile, another fierce game from the little monster.  I know Lily Mithen is short, but didn't realise she was overcoming this much of a disadvantage.

    Unfortunately Lily has not been in great form for about 3 games 

    Zge seems to get caught trying to dispose and falls over or is unceremoniously  dumped!
     

    Dintvtjink it's confidence with her but lard hope she is back on her game in the Finals.

    Good luck Lily

    She's as brave as they come and tackles like a tiger but she needs to know her limitations. Don;t get too cute. Take the sensible first option and give the ball to someone who can use it better.

    Just watched the replay on Kayo, such an exhilarating game.  We’ve now beaten 4 of the top 6 teams (North, Crows, Dockers, Lions).  Brisbane had 98 tackles so our girls were getting to the footy first.  Amazing that all our goals were excellent snaps from general play.  Scott’s 3,  Paxy’s second quarter long ranger and Bannan’s last quarter goal were all rippers but Tyla Hank’s goal showing her persistence, guile and checkside skills was the best!

    This group is really working for each other.  Zanker into the midfield has been an inspired coaching move.  Home final next but against who?  Bring it on.

    Have we played a finals game as an AFLW club as yet? 

    First appearance was last year i believe. Knocked over GWS in the semi final on their patch. Kicked 3 late goals to snatch it. Check out Lily Mithen's last minute goal. the farthest she's ever kicked it in her life i reckon. Balls of steel.

    unfortunately season canned a few days later due to covid so never got to play the prelim.

    ah that's right, for some reason I thought that was the last rnd of the season and it was then canned before finals.

    Fingers crossed for Daisy.

    @binman file away for discussion on podcast

    Normal sized mids must hate coming up against her whilst ours must love playing with her. Does Rnd 6-9 form = All Australian form ?

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
