Thank you for posting results, DiO. I couldn’t watch it since I just last night moved into a new house and have spent most of today walking around saying, “I wonder what this switch is for?” 😁

Congrats to Hore and Purcell on getting AA honors.

Only 2 AA's...Lions & Crows 4, Tigers & Cats 3.

As I say, we're very much underrated.

Hope we can prove it on Sunday.

Gee, Tigers and Cats are a surprise!

Not sure what it says when the AFLW B&F winner, Ally Anderson, is not named in the All Australian squad and finished 11th in the coaches award. Olivia Purcell finished 5th in the B&F, squeezes on to the bench in the AA squad and finished 15th in the coaches award. Meanwhile Jasmine Garner wins the coaches award easily, is captain of the AA squad and doesn't finish top ten in the B&F.

Most likely the AFLW umpires are completely clueless as to who the better players are, so are just picking the few players they recognise.

Well done to Liv Purcell and Kate Hore on their great seasons. Not sure why they were kept away from the main celebrations when they still participated in the AA team photo.

Probably the Demons have a very even spread of talent, whereas some sides have a very dominant player or two e.g. Conti, Kearney.

Champion teams and all that.

How are the umps supposed to allocate the correct votes without a comprehensive betting market in place?

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
