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 ?

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
