Melbourne should continue on their fine form with what should be a comfortable win against the Suns which is on Saturday 15th of October 7:40 pm. Gold Coast's form hasn't been too bad with 3 wins in the last 4 games winning their last game by 34 points against bottom of the ladder Sydney. While Melbourne has been in red hot form just belting the Bulldogs by 64 points. I'm predicting the Dees to get up by 6 goals.

Possible team

B: Birch, Gillard

HB: Goldrick, Lampard, Heath

C: Mithen, Hanks, Paxman

HF: Bannan, Zanker, Hore

F: D.Pearce, Harris

Foll: Caris, Purcell, West

IC: Duffy, Chaplin, Fitzsimon, Mackin, Sherriff

 

Not sure if Gay gets up for this one if she does she replaces Chaplin. L.Pearce has concussion so more likely Caris the raw ruckman will get her chance.

Harris receives third MOTY nomination (melbournefc.com.au)

AFLCA RD7 | Seven Dees feature against Dogs (melbournefc.com.au)

AFLW | Eliza McNamara | First run back (melbournefc.com.au)

Maddie Gay and Loz Pearce both ruled out for Saturday

This wont be an easy game. Having Pearce out is a huge blow plus it is up in sweatsville.

Need to treat the suns with respect. They have their moments. be professional and get the win first and foremost.

~~~ Danger game ~~~

Pearce is a massive out. She and Harris are the two players we can't replace. Perhaps Zanker can do some more rucking, and what she lacks in hit outs will hopefully be offset by her work at ground level.

Hopefully we can take enough chances to keep the game reasonably stress free in the second half.

Ultimately we just need to keep winning to lock in a couple of finals at Casey Fields.

 

Huge game tonight between the Lions and Crows. A draw would be a great outcome for us (remote but not impossible given the low scoring in a AFLW games) as it means we will be top the table with a win v the Suns. Given our soft run home we just need to win our remaining games rather than make up percentage and it won't matter what the Crows or Lions do. Finishing top is crucial as playing Lions or Crows away in a final is a tough ask

 

In: Caris, Wilson, Brown 
Out: L.Pearce (concussion), Sherriff (inj.), Goldrick (inj.)

Sammie Johnson’s injury is listed as “personal” which in this case is pregnancy. First ever AFLW player to have played while pregnant. I’m surprised it’s taken seven seasons for this to happen. 

The side a little bit weaker with L.Pearce, Goldrick and Sherriff out but they still should get it done comfortably against the Suns.

Agree Werridee, we are weaker but I am looking forward to seeing if Caris can step up. At only 19 and 190cm she is one of the new breed of AFLW footballers. It would be great to see her progress and eventually take over when L Pearce hangs up the boots. 

Geez I hope we get up tonight. Another result like last week’s would be great. I think we can do it!

GO DEES! ❤️💙🌈❤️💙

Great minds DP!

Second to Kate Hore in her 51st!

Encouraging to see the Gold Coast AFLW side getting crowds that rival the men's team. 

Ahh, I see, everyone was just being polite until Daisy got the first.

Daisy playing very well. Took a couple of strong marks and has kicked her goal

Suns very limited so far
