Great to see the footy back … and we’re kicking off the AFLW season with a big game against traditional rivals - the Western Bulldogs.

On Gameday, we’ll kick off on the main board and then migrate the thread to the AFLW board at the end of the round.

Please support our AFLW team in their quest for the flag.

How outrageously talented is Daisy Pearce, what a star human. I’m so grateful that she was part of the AFL Grand Final coverage, not only because her analysis is the best in business but because

I wish we would stop reverting to Handball  as the first option. The physical strength is not there across the board.  we gave up on it half way through last season, successfully. Kicking for distan

Great to have footy back and although last night’s game wasn’t the same as the last one I saw in September, the lesson was there for all to see. Accurate kicking for goal wins you games. At one stage in the game it was St Kilda 2.5.17 to Richmond 7.0.42. Game over!

Our women have been famous in the past for their inaccuracy in front of goals. Here’s hoping that having Tayla Harris and Daisy Pearce up near goal makes a difference.

Great to have footy back on the TV. Impressed with Richmond last night. They look much improved. Conti is an excellent player for them

The Doggies at Whitten Oval is a tough first up assignment. We were rubbish there last year. Goal kicking was dire. Hoping Harris can hit the ground running and snag a couple of goals

Tyla Hanks to be best on ground

Dees by 10 points

I'm heading to the WO tonight for the game, should be a cracker.

Our midfield is strong with Paxo and Hanks to dominate.  We really need to grab some marks up fwd, pressure on Harris but I reckon shell do well over the season.

Carn the demons!

Anyone know why Sinead Goldrick isn't back in the team?

We really missed her run off half back at the end of last season.

Great to see the girls back into it.

Go Dees

I'm also surprised McNamara isn't in the team. I thought she'd be a walk up start too.

Is this televised?

Having never been to the Whitten Oval I would be very interested in a food report and in particular a burger report from those attending.

A wide range of food and beverage options will be available including the Bass Strait Beef Burger Bar, Pancake Parlour outlets and food trucks.

Did she head home for Christmas?

Only that or injury would see her out in my humble opinion.

Goldrick and McVamara should be in the side but it is not a bad side anyway. Have the dogs ever played us at Casey ? Anyway my jury is still out on Harris so I wouldn't be surprised to see Gay down to FF and Zanker in the middle.  Also Tarrant and Birch is a very good FB line.

Yeah me too. She's tough as nails and just got better as the season went on last year.

Anyways, I think I banged on about team selections at the start of the year for the blokes last year and look what happened.

SW Gippsland to W Melb several bridges too far for me, so cheer 'em for me @DubDee et al. I'll hope to return the fave at Casey😁

It's also televised FTA on Channel 7 from 6.50pm.

I see Richelle "Rocky" Cranston named for the Bulldogs.  She started her AFLW career with Melbourne before moving to Geelong where she was subsequently delisted and picked by her current team.  Always thought she was a decent player who didn't mind the rough stuff and I was disappointed to see her leave the Demons.

Didn't see the FTA. Thanks (to you also @58er)

Remember Rocky crunching an opposition player in the first five minutes of the comp, v. Brisbane at Casey. It was going to be a serious comp!

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
