Daisy takes up Geelong coaching role

Lord Travis
in AFLW Melbourne Demons

See article on afl website. I notice Melbourne as one of the clubs not listed with that role. Surely we could’ve put Daisy in it and kept her at the club post playing career?

    I thought she'd changed her mind and was going to play on again?

    Every player leaves their club. Some learn new things elsewhere and come back.     I think it's a great decision to leave

    Geelong: Daisy Pearce (current Melbourne player and captain)

     

    So she plays for Melbourne and coaches Geelong. Absolutely bizarre. How does the club allow that?

    She takes up the coaching role at the end of the AFLW season when she hangs up the boots.

    "Pearce has one of nine positions across the AFLW, with the successful women able to take the up the minimum two-year role between now and 2025, allowing the Demons star and other AFLW players to continue playing if desired".

    Oh well...good luck to her. You can't really begrudge her, albeit a disappointing result for us

    Would be mad if they didn't go after her.

    ...interesting to see if that's what she is after though.

    Media commitments and coaching in the mens program, interesting times for Daisy.

    Hawks trying to punch multiple of our players.

    Their coach ‘shock’ retirement.

    West Coast chasing Daisy.

    Can I bet on Daisy coaching the Hawks next year?

    She's settled in country Vic. I can't see Daisy moving across to WA.

    Plus i reckon she's learning more coaching a mens team than jumping back to AFLW now

    Hopefully not punching them, just pinching.

    Nice conspiracy theory DS, Libby and Daisy are close.   Time will tell 😎.

    Funny how Geelong AFLW knew how to play us in the finals, I don’t think that it was a coincidence. Daisy is going to be a very good coach wherever she ends up.

    Why don’t you think it was a coincidence?

    Hi TheWiz Cats would have used Daisy’s knowledge of our game plan and team to beat us. Just as they did against our men’s side last year with our Casey ex-coach and our former runner in their camp both had intimate knowledge of all our moves, strengths and weaknesses. Cats recruited our VFL Premiership coach and AFLW Premiership Captain to get better.!!

    Think there is a bit to this DeeZone but I also think that Adelaide and Brisbane also provided a bit of a blueprint on how to beat us. Physicality and pressure is our kryptonite. Beat us at the contest and pressure us to deny us our running game.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
