Have to operate better in forward zone. They are cutting it off at will. Great effort by Mcnamara. Hope she will be okay. Tyla Hanks has been fantastic.

 

We are getting hands on the ball first. The pressure is being brought by us.

Paxman in everything,  Zanker looks on, Scott nearly, Hanks playing in tight.

Crows getting intercept marks in our forward line.

 

Making it so hard for ourselves. Get some composure ladies 


Need to kick the next one. a 3 goal lead would be very hard to reel in

Playing as bad as the Collingwood game. No flow or structure.

We're moving the ball really sluggishly and can't seem to get the ball inside 50. Not looking good for us at the moment. 


Is this a situation where we need Gary Lyon to give them a rev up at half time, like when he got into Clarry's ear before Spuds Game a few weeks back?

Around the ground we have been the better side but there is no structure in the forward line. Just keep trying girls.

Their backline is beating us.

They tried to be a bit smarter with the delivery into the 50, but it didn't work.

We have our backs to the wall.

Hanks with plenty, Paxman not there in the last 8 minutes, Scott nearly, as with Zanker who missed a set shot. Not much from L. Pearce yet. Mithin, Gay and Heath ok, our backline is not dominating. 

We're not out of it. Need to get rewards for our entries.

Go Dees, hit back

Competitive performance just need to lower the ? when going inside 50.

 Call on Kayo is that Adelaide centric now on ?. These people need to get out of town occasionally.

Bannan, sadly, is not applying the required finals pressure, leaving it to others.  Our backline sans Goldie misses her energy and lacks kicking polish to safely transition.  Essentially our midfield is keeping us in it; Hanks, Paxy, Mithen, Gay, Zanker and TRex going ok.

Mick will need to weave some HT magic but without the outside run of McNamara we look comparatively slow.  Big effort girls.  C’mon Dees!

 

Huge ask now. Not sure what Stinear can do. They need more than guts. Gotta kick a goal somehow

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
