Last week against the Lions would have been different if Harris played I reckon.

    Cracking win by the girls. Tayla was dominant forward. Fantastic mark she is. 
    Purcell with 30 touch in a 70 minute game is ridiculous 

    Good to see a 4 Q effort after the last 2 weeks

    It drizzled all second half which made it harder to execute skills.  A solid win, as expected.

    A nice vibe at Ikon.

    Watched the full game. 2 things I learnt. Dees are very very good. Secondly, the standard has improved dramatically since the last game I watched last season - AFLW will continue to grow at a fast rate IMO. 

    Go Dees!

    Solid enough win so now over to Freo.

    Another good solid win. Would have liked to see the scoring push on int he second half as that has been a weak point for the season so far, but hard to judge it given the weather and also hard to really complain about such a clear win.

    I really, really don't want Melbourne to be 'second best' for another season though, so I'd like to see ti all click into place and some absolute thrashings handed out.

    Good to have Goldie back...

    She didn't get heaps of it but when she got it she broke lines and kicked long, a real weapon, particularly in the AFLW.

    Very good win from the look of it. Carlton look [censored] this year. 

  • Quote

    Late to the party, but yeah, a good win that's hard to complain about, though slotting a few more would have been handy as per usual.

    Loved the four-quarter effort and pressure though against an obviously under-resourced team that played very defensively after half time. Smother work top notch, all those little things. Liked the way everyone got around Duffy on debut.

    Also good to see the magnets thrown around a little. Goldrick a welcome return and she'll build.

    And congrats to L.Pearce on a magnificent 50 games. Special shout out to our cheer squad who completely outperformed the home fans on every level!

    Coaches Votes V Carlton 

    9. Tayla Harris (MELB)
    9. Eliza West (MELB)
    6. Vaomua Laloifi (CARL)
    4. Olivia Purcell (MELB)
    2. Sarah Lampard (MELB)

    The opposing coaches were in almost complete agreement as to the best players were aside from who was BOG.

    Eliza West’s improvement has been dramatic. She only debuted this year (season 6) and it is fair to say all her skills, aside from her ball winning capabilities, were sketchy. She is now a reliable (short) kick, good with her hands and a tenacious tackler. She seems to have a natural feel for the game and is a vital cog in our midfield set up.

    Vote for Paxy for GOTY!

     

    Also noteworthy (although as has been pointed out, take out a couple of the older players and our core is quite young, though that's a theme across the competition, I'd imagine):

    Paxy will be hard to replace when the time comes. She's having another great season. Top 5 B&F i reckon

    • 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.
