Vs. North next week. I watched North vs. Pies on the weekend and I wasn’t sure if it was that North were good or the Pies were crap. Regardless, a win tonight would be great leading into that match.

Oh and I’ll had one more thing, the Irish girls have all the heart in the world and can run, but cannot kick or bounce the ball. So not sure what they add

I thought you turned it off?

i get we are playing poorly but your sweeping statements are a bit harsh. Hore is a great kick. And regarding the Irish girls Goldrick is a reliable kick.

There’s no way this team will win a premiership given the way that they fold against decent opposition.

Daisy, Paxmen, Scott and Hore are all C grade kicks.

Daisy and Paxman are both very good kicks, more often than not hitting targets.

Don’t get defensive of your countrywomen Dub. It’s a fact. If you are watching, our best 5 players and most experienced are poor field kicks. Admittedly Hore is a good shot on goal. Around the ground we consistently miss targets.

Outside of Bannon's goal its been a dismal performance. Our only hope here is if the Lions tire in the second half but even then we have to lift across the board

I’ll always stand up for Irish women. Goldy is a beauty. 🙂

O’Dwyer from the Lions should be a trade target too. Gun

Well I honestly don’t know what you’re watching tonight (maybe you did turn it off?), but both have been consistently hitting targets in this game. Unfortunately they’re not getting much support from many of their team mates.

If we turn the pressure up, win some clearances this game can turned on it’s head quickly

put Hore on a wing. Play Bannan off HB. Move it around

Just remind them not to bounce. Practice the solo or touch the ball on the ground. Cost a goal.

This game should be just about done but I think we’re still a slight chance. Big turnaround needed, we should just take the game on from here.
The only time we looked dangerous is when we just ran like West did and Bannan took off straight after a mark for her goal. Hopefully we can get a couple early in the second half and put them under pressure. Make the Lions rue their missed opportunities.

Sorry but we are not even in the same ballpark as the lions. They are the best ball moving side as I have seen with the girls. Conditions suiting them as well.

They’ve got a few loose targets by looking to switch play. Lions players are nailing targets through the corridor with precision. The fact their teammates mark the ball also helps, but this is the difference I speak of. I got over my hatred of the umpiring in this league and stuck with it, but I hold firm on my views. Our supposed top 5 lack polish. I used to think Paxmen was the best user of the footy in our team, but she looks way off it this season. I’d be spinning a few magnets.

The gap should really be 27 points. Just lucky for us their last two shots were misses. One hit the post(?) Anyways, it’s gonna take way more than luck from here. Let’s see if the girls can turn it around in the second half. ❤️💙

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
