What a ridiculous decision

    Wow. What a win. Really gutted it out in the last quarter. Great result.

    Despite the umpires trying to gift the Lions the game, we prevail in an epic comeback. Couldn’t be prouder of the girls. Tayla Harris is the recruit of the year. Absolute gun. I still worry about our polish in the midfield come the finals.

    Superb win

    awful first half. slow ponderous and predictable

    fantastic second half. Why don't we play with that intent from the start?

    Harris BOG and the difference. Bannon excellent as well. Midfield unit stepped up big time

    Go Dees

    Gutsy win

    And a gutsy call from the umpire 😐after what looked like a throw in the build up to that play

    There was a million throws in the game

    Umpiring very very questionable thoughout. A phantom 50 and a rubbish free kick at the death. Thankfully didn't decide the game which would have been a shame

    Commentators just said Harris has taken 7 contested marks for the game 😳

    … equaling the record set four years ago. She’s a gun!

    Great comeback win. Harris was outstanding. The umpiring for both teams was poor and it’s probably just me but I can not stomach Jack Hevrin as a commentator.

    I don't know what everyone was worried about...

    Read the comments from the first half and happened to catch only the 2nd half.

    Never in doubt.

    7 contested marks in 60 mins of footy on a dewy night with only 26 inside fifties

    what an absolute star!!

    A super enjoyable game to watch.

    The skills were great, in large part because of the brilliant conditions and surface

    A good example of my point about the need to play all the AFLW games on AFL standard grounds with stands to provide protection from the wind.

    Outstanding second half. Harris was unbelievable but I was impressed with Purcells second half. Unlike others I thaught Paxman played a great game and when Linda Pearce starts to play well we tend to fire. Great win girls.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
