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.

    • 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?
