10 inside 50’s for 1 scoring shot to the crows. Great defence led by Birch and Lamps

Paxy doing well but needs to take the easy option. Hore and West good

Mithin! We need you!

    I’m all for the 45 kick into the corridor but only when it’s on.  We were lucky to get away with those two.

    Good quarter with lots of pressure. Could have easily got 2 more goals (Heath and Hore were very gettable). 

    Ropey first 5 mins or so but we've settled. Need to be more efficient though. Missed a couple of gettable goals

    Looks like Paxman playing off the half-back. 

    Just saw the defensive group and she wasn't with them.

    Must be playing a kick behind the ball

    Really liking Gillard, thought she had a good quarter.

    We are getting the run of the umpires decisions. 

    Zanker needs to get into this game

    Adelaide are bringing so much pressure but our composure is very impressive.

    Missing Eliza McNamara's run and pace, does anyone know if she is a chance to return this season ?


    This game is crying out for a Bannan goal

    That was a great couple of minutes of footy finishing with the goal to Harris.

    She’s phenomenal. To play at this level at her age and height really projects to be one of the best defenders in the comp (if she stays as a defender)

    Im PUMPED watching this game at work. Cant believe how much the skill of hand balling has improved (in the small sample i have seen so far).

    We look good for a win.

     

    GO DEES

    The commentators are lauding the Adelaide pressure and tackling, but ignoring the fact that Melbourne is getting their hands on the ball first.

    Great 1st half. Relentless pressure 😅

    Good first half, hope we can keep it up, would be  a great win to start the season

    Both teams playing a great brand of footy tonight. Our girls look fast, slick and dominating contested ball. Keep it up dees!

    We've managed to absorb the Crows pressure tonight whereas previously we've wilted. 

    Outstanding work from Purcell and West in particular. If we can continue to match up to the Crows physically we should win

    This is a really good game. The pressure from both sides is impressive. Purcell and West playing well in the middle. Birch has been fantastic down back with Lampard. Really impressed with Harris game. If Daisy and Zanker can lift a bit it will help.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
