We should be playing at Casey as the G is too neutral which will aid the bears. Casey has been a fortress.

    No l disagree. The MCG will be our home ground from next year and need to start building home ground advantage. It would not surprise me if the girls became curtain raisers at the G for some games next year although l know they are resisting. The economics just make sense as does full integration to make little difference b/w the girls and boys teams. Good for supporters too!

    I'm super nervous.

    Brisbane are very tough opponents. It will require a huge effort from the girls today to win

    3 week break not ideal. Playing at the G, while fantastic for the womens game and a great opportunity to showcase our team, disadvantages us. Casey has been our fortress

    It's a 50/50 game but this team has plenty of heart and guts. I reckon they'll get the job done ..just

    Go Dees

    Come on Dees here is hoping for a win and another step closer to our second premiership in such a short space of time.

    Yes it's a real debate Casey our home ground advantage but I can't help thinking about the great footy ( against admittedly an under strength Freo) on the big stage at Optus.

    Let's be positive and this gritty and resourceful team can win no matter what. Belief is high and confidence also.

    Go Dees your inspiration are our mighty 2021 male heroes.

    Apologies for the negativity but I think Brisbane will be too good for us - too quick, skilled and even across the park. On the plus side last week I also predicted that Sam Weideman had played his last game for the AFL side so what do I know.

    Well I'm feeling another flag coming on.
    Season has panned out very similarly to the men last year.
    Go get it girls.

    This is a last minute call out to Dees fans on the fence about going today. Please get there, the girls have had a great year and deserve to have a big Dees crowd for them.

    Gonna be some rough weather today by the look. Unfortunately I’m expecting a pretty poor crowd as a result. I’m gonna suffer through it though to be a part of history and see the girls scrub a mighty win in the wet.

    I am talking about us winning a prelim final. Casey is better. Backsides on seats or looking for next year is irrelevant.

    Since when is the MCG going to be the girls home ground from next year. First I have heard of it.

    BOM saying 10% chance of rain…well Meggs is feeling a few sprinkles already.  It’s also quite blustery in here.  Nothing like the Optus Stadium conditions of Round 9.   

    ps the PA is most certainly working….

    Unfortunately I'm away for weekend but it would be good to have been there. I hope the girls win.

    I'd love to see Daisy win a flag & hold the cup up.

    I’m really nervous (more so than last night), but over the journey I reckon we’ve earned a Grand Final berth.

    You get excellent value out of a first goal scorer bet in the ladies footy

    Brisbane harder around the ball and a little cleaner in slippery conditions.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
