    8 minutes into the game - two goals to nil. If you told me they would not kick another I would not have believed you. 

    A combination of excellent tactics from the coach, unbelievable chasing and tackling, and skill from the girls. 

    so proud and happy. I’m actually surprised how much this means to me after only 7 seasons

    YESSSS!!! So well deserved. Not happy with the lions receiving BOG, the only reason their backs had a chance to be in the game was the excellent work of West, Hanks and Paxman getting the ball forward, BOG on the losing team should be reserved for absolutely stellar performances. Anyway, you bloody beauty! What a performance, beat them away, on a weird new deck, with the umpires giving us nothing. Go Dees!

    I reckon it’s because this team is easy to invest in. They are so openly engaged with playing solely for the joy of the game and each other that it’s impossible not to find it meaningful. Add to that how meaningful is the rise of the women’s game in the past 7 years after 157 years of being unwanted at the highest level, and now a premiership for the ORIGINAL club - of both the men’s and women’s game, and there it is. Just great stuff!

    We've done it! We are premiers. Go Daisy, Go Tayla, go everyone! We absolutely deserved this to the nth degree. This is a champion team and a champion club.

    We are a silverware club now! So proud of these girls, so so proud.

    i still want to know what happened to the last kick just before the siren.

    it looked to be heading for the goals, but they cut the video of the ball before we could see

    anyone who was there see where the ball ended up?

    If that crossed the goal line and scored and not added to the final score that's just amateur hour, controlling umpire should have given the all clear. Don't they even know the rules at this level?

    As Daisy said, Hanks is the League's most underrated player.

    Well done girls on a historic first flag for the Dees AFLW team.

    As Daisy said men’s flag, Casey flag, VFLW preliminary final and now AFLW flag.

    Dees travelling ok atm.

    Imagine if the men’s AFL side had won it this year as well. Would have been a long while before any club could claim that trifecta. Heck, 2/3 is even tough.

    Reckon we can do the double next year. AFL and AFLW flags. That would be some achievement.

    Daisy can retire on top. I reckon she has gotten everything out of herself. She will go down as a Demon legend. Absolute trailblazer and one of the toughest chicks I can think of

    I'm absolutely rapt and we defended so well keeping them goaless after quarter time but we won a gf only kicking 2 goals. 

    Like if I didn't support one of these teams I'd be saying that was a very very low scoring gf and probably should have been higher scoring

    Yeah but that means she'll start her coaching at Geelong.

    Wowee what a day! 
    Just got the kids to sleep, they were still buzzing, as am I. 
    What an amazing effort by our girls. I was as glum as could be at Q time, they were all over us. But we dug in with absolute resilience and determination, matching and bettering the Brions’ pressure game. An absolute slog. 
    At the start of the last, I was a pacing nervous wreck when one of my girls said “relax, dad, we’re going to win”. I offered her top dollar for her magical crystal ball at the end! And talk about emotional reward for investment, I was a blubbering mess of tears watching Daisy make that raw post game interview! 
    So proud of this group. And of the wider AFLW for empowering girls and women through our great game. The comp is as old as my twin girls, and as I watch both grow, I feel so grateful they have these female role models to look up to. 

    And at the risk of being ungracious, can I just say a big ‘SUCKED IN’ to the AFL(W) hierarchy and the wider football media. 
    Everyone had this game already won by the Brions , creating a narrative they are the unbeatable darlings and making a bloody shamozzle out of every aspect of organising this GF, putting us under every imaginable disadvantage. 
    And we went up there and [censored] did it despite everything! Get a dog up yas! 
    GO YOU MIGHTY DEMONS

    ❤️💙🏆❤️💙

    Does anyone know if there’s going to be any premiership merch available? 
    Most specifically, a team poster? My kids rightfully pointed out they’ll need a girls poster to match the boys!

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
