First has never been the priority. Securing second by grinding out a win after a Perth trip is the aim. It’s going to take a huge effort from here in to the wind. 
 

Harris has been caught in between deep and up the ground. They need to get her back in position. 
 

Would like to see Kate Hore have a run on the ball to get in to the game.

    Now we will see what they are made of. Against the breeze and we have been playing poorly.

    Mick needs to send the message that when you switch you got to keep going to space. We kill our forwards by double switching

    Way too much pace on the ball right now. Need to slow it right down

    Caught holding defensively twice. Not sharp at all. Really need some composure now

    The lack of knowledge of the ladder and the implications of the commentators is pretty poor. If we lost we could have slipped to third which is huge

    I was sure Vescio was going to win it. Deserved to lose tbh but we got there. Just

    So frustrating watching our women try to beat one more opponent before kicking. Far too often they get caught or the kick is smothered. Lucky to get the win in the end.

    Well what a heart stopper hung on by a fingernail. Carlton certainly applied a lot of heat and tackled ferociously. Well done girls.!!

    If Carlton win tonight, it's 4 in a row for them. They're one of the form teams in the comp, and I'm glad the girls were able to get the win, even if it wasn't the big win we all hoped for to give us the best chance.

    Awful composure. 
     

    The Mithen kick with 2 minutes left was inexcusable. Ball use the entire last quarter was crazy. 
     

    But coming back from Perth is tough, even if you win by 80.

    Hopefully the week off fixes Purcell up and Zanker too. The big body mids are just vital for us to be any chance.

    Jonsey Just called Vescio a she. Assume he’ll be cancelled by Monday

    Very lucky.  Succumbed to Carlton’s pressure,  but managed to survive (just) at the ‘death’.  ‘Bath water’? /  coming off a long road trip? Who knows? ……. but performances like that will not cut it in finals!

    One of his co-commentators called Vescio a they and a she in the same sentence.
    I have an idea what that says about the whole situation, but I can't say it because I'll get cancelled.

    Terrible performance and pretty difficult to argue that the better team won. 

    Perhaps the trip to Perth didn't help but, with so much at stake, we looked incredibly half hearted, indecisive and overwhelmed. 

    Hopefully they can take the week off to rest up, refocus and bring a much better performance in the preliminary final.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
