Although vs Crows will be a big indicator about our forward line structure and goal scoring options under greater pressure it's already apparent that Tayla is playing her part by marking., or bringing the ball to ground and just throwing her body into every contest.

similar to Tmac at times in the aFL Tayla clears space for smalls and crumbing forwards.

Reckon it's a master stroke to get her don't worry what she is getting paid it's all worth  it and the result is a quarter like our 2nd vs Tigers or our 4th vs Saints where the flood gates open with Daisy and others cashing in.

When  the game is tight also Taylah can use her elite marking to advantage as well. 

Tayla is like Tmac or BBB and TeganC was like the Weid in presence etc. on our forward lines.

 

She has some serious hurt factor and her opponents often take a while to get back up.

Bit of a scrap, but a very good last quarter.

Hanks is a very natural footballer with a very fluid kicking action.

I also love the physicality of Harris, Zanka and Scott in particular.

Goldie also, she goes in hard when she sees an opportunity. I think she has started to play herself into a bit better form now she has a couple of games under her belt.

And the girls' '1964' ('9.10.64') final score reminiscent of Gus's grasp of the never-again-to-be-surrendered lead that hallowed day.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed this!

How about that dive into the bottom of a pack and extraction of a perfect handball to a nearby player who delivered it into 50?

Loved that! Seems like a great person to have around our young players as well - to pick up a sport in your late 20s and keep learning and pushing to get better all the time, on the other side of the world. Great stuff.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    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

    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
