Goldie knee (test)  in

Gay calf  (1-week) out

Gaye has been very good so far, hopefully the injury won’t keep her out too long. Will be great to have Goldie back though.

Glad it's just the week for Gay after her struggles last season.

For those wondering about Duffy, according to twitter comments, she's fine but not match ready yet. Building for Round 5-6.

Intensity, clean hands, great link play and accurate goal kicking. Superb 1st quarter from the girls. 6 straight into the breeze.

St Kilda don't know what hit them. This game is over already

Wow, will the Saints get two disposals in a row?

Great structure behind the ball.

Good forward craft, creating separation and kicking straight 

Purcell playing great footy, along with West, the engine room.

Fair start by the girls. Has a team ever kicked 100 points before?

DL's must have forgotten the game is on!

Are we playing our Home game at St Kilda's Home ground or just agreed to wear dark shorts?

I think everyone is still fixated on the fallout from Friday night's game

Let's see if they can "reset".

No goals for 2 quarters. I thought getting big leads would free them up. Seems the opposite for MFC teams. The longer we go without scoring after getting the big lead, the more nervous we get.

This thread got a lot more traffic when it was moved to the main footy board last season.

Great 1st quarter. Forget about the rest of the game. Missed opportunity to build percentage

Libby Birch having a great season. Paxy too. Talk of her demise greatly exaggerated

Huge game next week against the Lions at Casey. Could well determine who finishes on top

Very strange game with a good result.  Next weekend should tell us a story.  Strong four quarters needed!

What a frustrating game to watch. Our goal kicking went from gold to bovine crap.

Great move by the AFL to introduce club / supporter centric commentary.

I watched the whole game listening to how good St Kilda we're because I couldn't find the Naarm channel!

Great win Dees. Big game next week. It should be the curtain raiser to the vfl granny.

Bizarre game. Blistering first Q. Then 11 behinds. 

in 2-3 years I reckon Zanker will dominate the comp. Love her aggression

It was like watching a men's game lately, but the women don't score fast enough to catch us.

We jumped them and looked great.  They tightened up and create a rolling context.  Would have improved with 1 handball and a releasing kick, often we went back into trouble under the pressure.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
