You feel the lions might just pinch this. Zanker and Bannen unsighted (Zanker since the 1st and Bannen all year). 

What about that composure from Gilliard. what a prospect she is

 

The Lions ruck is outstanding. Tapping down her mids throats all game.

Palms it down beautifully 

 

all over red rover. Lions clearly the better team and thoroughly deserve the win


What is up with Birch? Ball goes over the top every time. Terrible leadership at the back. Need Daisy to organise us back there 

Aside from first quarters we have kicked 1 goal in the past two games.

pathetic

Hanks, Heath and Mitho the only consistent performers today

Libby doing it all on her own.  Heath great at tackling, but forgets about where the ball is in general play.  How many goals did they get from kicking it off the ground in the goal square?

Daisy wasted in the forward line.  Need to bring Duffey in to kick goals. L. Pearce needs to hit the ball away from the opposition goals.

Was disappointed with the last half. They need to get a defensive Coach - too many easy goals over the back today when Lions  swarmed forward. And our forwards need to play in front. Tyla Hanks, Kate Hore and Lily Mithen were great.

Chastening defeat.

Our quick start gave the score line some respectability but we were beaten in every department. Harris will straighten us up going forward but around the ball a real worry. West has been great this year but totally ineffectual yesterday. 

The Lions are the team to beat this year. No question

To be honest, I was expecting a heavier defeat. A few Dees definitely went missing... Brisbane also looked to run the game out better fitness wise. Our forward line was so one dimensional. Felt for the debutant in Campbell, a tough ask for a pretty raw player - good experience though. Those soccer goals were super frustrating, but it's why those really deep entries with players out of position are gold. We need more of that.

The Lions were certainly 'due' a win against us. We've definitely got away with some against them. Apart from half a quarter in the first, we didn't play near our best though, so that's something to build from. We've had a good look at how they get it done and hopefully by season's end we'll be in stronger form.

On a positive note, I like Mackin's involvement in her first ever full game of AFLW. You expect a cross-coder to give away some free kicks or get caught out on game awareness stuff, but so far as I could tell, she was up to speed.

Selection will be interesting this week!

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
