Go Dees.

The girls have seen what it takes to bring home the cup. This is the prefect chance to show the Mens team how things should be done. You don't really need to wait 57 years for a flag.

I think the Women can bring home the bacon if everything goes right. Become club legends girls. Don't allow room for regrets post game. 100% effort for 100% game time and you can hoist the cup.

    The girls are very capable of getting the job done today, but up against an all time great side, it'll be a tough game. 

    Seeing Daisy lift the cup would be almost as satisfying as seeing Max and Goody do it.

    The pioneer club in women’s football is up against the modern day power house.

    Let’s make it a double today!!!

    More like vs SA state team.

    Go girls, get the ball out of the packs and run like the wind & kick straight!

    Would be a huge win against all odds!

    Go Demons!!

    This team have no shortage of heart and guts. I know they’ll leave nothing in the locker today

    We have to go toe to toe on the inside and try to break even in this area. No easy task. The Crows inside midfielders are brutes.

    Bannan is a match winner as she proved in the prelim. Nobody can match her speed so we have to get the ball to her in space

    Tayla Harris has to be more involved today.

    Will be absolutely rapt if Daisy lifts the cup. We’re going to have to play at our absolute best to win. It’ll take a mighty effort but I think we will do it.

    In a repeat of last year’s GF experience, I’ll be on the couch with my two girls cheering loudly. After bangbangbang I excitedly busted open a packet of Tim Tams for the kids, which is their standout memory! 
    I promised that if successful this GF, we would do Tim Tam Slams with a cup of Milo! 
    But win, lose or draw, what a great thing it is that my kids have witnessed the Demon boys and girls playing off in grand finals within 6 months of each other. That girls can look up to heroes like Daisy, Karen, Tayla and know they can participate, compete and belong - just like the boys. What these AFLW pioneers have done for the next generation of girls cannot be understated and should be celebrated. 
    CARNADEES, put in your best show today and we hope you can bring home the cup!! 
    ❤️💙

    Our women's team have been one of the top sides of the competition pretty much the whole time it's been up and running and have got so close to GF appearances before that I sense they have well and truly earnt their place to take part in today's match.

    Hopefully the experience of players like Dasiy (10) and Paxman (3) who have played in multiple premerships at state level has an influence on their team mates.

    Looking forward to the game - GO THE MIGHTY DEMONS!!

    We have to get off to a much better start than last time we played them. 

    It would just be brilliant if we could win and make it the double.

    Harris winning a flag after 2 failed goes would justify her recruiting and be a good story for her. 

    I know we have players like Mithen and Paxman who have been there since the start but gee winning for Daisy should be the motivation. She has just been a pioneer of women's footy. Her holding up the cup would just be the icing on the cake.

    We will not win playing our usual style. We got smashed there last time

    hopefully Stinnear has some moves up his sleeve. Manic attack mode won’t work as they defend well and counter on us

    Will the loss Adelaide's Ruck McKinnon play a significant part in the game?

    This will be a tough ask but the one thing our girls have in common is guts and plenty of them. I know they will give it their all.

    1st flag for the year.
    Go get it girls.

    TBH I can’t see us beating them there, but hopefully I am wrong. We won the PF with Harris, Hanks, Hore , Scott and a few others playing terrible games.

    If these players play great footy and the rest lift, well who knows.

    Need to be able to weather their physicality, get the ball to the outside and make them run

    crows supporting mate of mine has used it for years; i thought it originated from mislabelled merch, but accoring to this, stolen from a bigfooty from april, 2021, it's a supporter-led thing that ended up making a fair whack of cash for fight mnd:

    Basically 5 years ago some lady on Adelaide Crows Pride forum said 'Go the Crom' after the win or something. A few supporters tried to get it going on and off for the next 4 years.
    When we were crap last year it took off being regularly used on Facebook.
    Adelaide Crowject Podcast have sold beanies with Crom on them at $25 each. Proceeds have gone to MND. I think they've made at least 5 grand for the charity maybe more. With that increasing due to the high demand.

    aunty made a vid about it too: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2500352820269500

    Same here Redleg. Heart says Dees but head says Crows. Bit of luck goes our way then we maybe in it.

    Had to switch off the pre game due to that irritating ear worm Adelaide club song.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
