Strangely I still think we are a chance. As the game opens up more we can run them off their feet. Put shelly Scott to FF and Harris to CHF. Randall is in her head.

    Fantastic last year and another who's done nothing this year.

    And that's the trick, run run run.

    Adelaide far cleaner.

    She's had such a sub standard year this year. She can be a real weapon for us in the past but she just seems off

    I don't rate Zanker at all the way she currently plays. To me, she's like a big unbroken horse (not in any way a physical comparison - just in terms of attitude and demeanour) - but no one can make her behave sensibly. Obvious power and skill, but cannot reign it in to be of benefit to the team. Just goes the don't argue, see ball get ball at all opportunities.

    Need to move it more quickly. Run and kick.

    Crows setup is strong and composed.  Defenders ready for standard kick.  

    Skills of AFLW don’t support high possessions game.  Just run run and run and kick. Overlap run.  

    Crows are very very good contested footy team.  

    who can win it ? TAYLA Harris.

    We’re still a chance.  Go Dees

    You reckon a few more handpasses will fix our issues, or a bit of talking? A lot of our problems in this game relate to game plan - you need a lot of chin wagging to come up with a new gameplan on the fly...

    Crows get forever to dispose of the ball. Other thing is we just do not show accountability.

    should have moved the ball on quickly to bannon there rather the waiting and kicking to the 2 on 1. This slow play is getting us nowhere

    We're simply not fit enough to beat Adelaide. 

    You can't beat a side that runs that much harder than you that you're always outnumbered.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
