I really feel like we just had more naturally competitive footballers. It was frustrating early to watch them all crash in and not hold space, but as the game went on they wanted it more and wouldn’t let anyone get in their way.

So proud of the girls. Heartbroken it wasn’t in Melbourne, but so proud.

Massive effort to give up the first two and keep them goaless after that. Dominated the last three quarters. Held their shape even when under pressure.

Just an awesome effort. 

Also, Tyla Hanks is probably the best pure footballer in the league. Absolute jet.

Agree on hanks. Pure is a great descriptor.

Super smart too - makes such terrific decisions

Did that last kick bounce though. they cut away from it.

Looked like she kicked it well before the siren sounded and that it was bouncing Petracca-like towards the goals.  Not that it makes a difference to the result, but my understanding is that any score under those circumstances would count.

Not a pretty game but the girls kept going hard and wouldn’t surrender. Harder at the contest and controlled territory nearly all game. Well done! Premiers at last!

 We did it! We [censored] did it!!

So proud of our girls !!!

I’m not crying. You’re all crying. Ok I’m crying. I’m crying for Daisy and Paxy and Lampy and all the others who’ve been there from the start. And for the entire team. And for Mick who’s coached us brilliantly from the start.

    BATTLE OF MORDOR by Meggs

    Shadows form over Middle-Earth as the two oldest football clubs in the land Melbourne and Geelong take battle for the very first time for 4-points, down at Kardinia Park (aka Mordor). If you dare, come venture down the highway and support our talented team. Melbourne’s Season Eight form line is 4 zip and we’ve been playing some scintillating footy.  The fanbase is growing.   It needs to be said that our opponents so far have hardly been top shelf: Collingwood sits 12th on the

    SISTER ACT by Meggs

    In the twilight at Frankston Oval, for the first ever match between Melbourne and Hawthorn, the Demons were clinical winning by 59 points and remain undefeated in Season Eight.   The Melbourne team ran out to a wonderful #DeeArmy banner paying tribute to Ron Barassi, ‘a football legend, the greatest Demon’.     So true!   Meggs was super excited to see Irish recruit Aimee Mackin playing her first game.  Aimee quickly showed us that she belongs out there with composure, ga

    ON SONG by Meggs

    Meggs asks is it time to heave ho the melodies and words of yesteryear and update Club theme songs with some Australian composers and singers?     What prompted this reflection was the discovery that this week’s combatants’ themes were written by the same early 20th century American composer, George M. Cohan.     Cohan’s melodies The Yankee Doodle Boy and You’re a Grand Old Flag have been used by Hawthorn since 1956 and Melbourne since 1912.   Even earlier, the clu

    RUN UNBEATEN by Meggs

    The Demons withstood a spirited challenge from the Western Bulldogs in the 10th anniversary of the Hampson-Hardeman Cup to run away with it in the last quarter and take their unbeaten run to 12 wins on the trot, an AFLW record.   The Doggies were tenacious and their losing score of 6.5.41 was the highest score against Melbourne since their last loss against Brisbane in Round 4 on 18 September 2022.   With the sad passing of AFL football legend Ronald Dale Barassi, champion player

    LEARNINGS OR BURNINGS by GOTO

    Well, the 2023 season is over for the Demons after a two point loss to the Blues in the First Semi Final. All season WE have been hearing about the “learnings” that the team needed to make after each loss, but how much have we actually learnt when they:   1. Lost four successive finals at our own home ground;   2. Fell in five of their last six losses despite having more shots at goal and in the sixth, they had an equal number of shots;   3. Lost seven games by under two
