Not to long to go now!

@Dees_In_October, you need something to keep this on the front board. Well done; it's worth it!

Surprised, but pleased 'MGE' tops the list!

Shaping up to pull further ahead in AFLW8, too! Can't W8 😄

Was a bit of a trick question, in that it only refers to the three players listed!

Kate Hore leads the MFC goalkickers with 53 (also fourth on the league-wide list).

Tayla Harris leads the league with 58 (28 of which have been for Melbourne). Alyssa Bannan also has 28, then its former Dee Shelley Scott, Zanker and so on.

West Coast and Fremantle.  The West Coast game was at Casey in 2020, and the Fremantle game was Season 6 last year at Optus.  Daisy Pearce kicked 5 goals that day.

Apparently there’s a curtain raiser at 4pm. Our match starts at 7:20pm so I’d guess that the unfurling ceremony will take place between the two matches. I’ll find out, and confirm.

Confirmed: around/just after 6:45pm

Club games, we presumed? It appears she has a game for Victoria as well (when did that happen?)

Ah, that score after Gus's Premiership gem: 9.10.64 ❤️

Just watched the Footy Classified Show, and they ended with, "enjoy the week off", as if there was no AFL being played.

They must know that the AFL women starts this week. 

I also did not hear any commentary about the games. If Wilson was on, I'm sure she would have at least mentioned the opening week.

Women's elite sports have such a difficult task to get real support.

If Collingwood was unfurling the flag on Friday night, would the Collingwood show (footy classified) and the mouth piece Eddy, have made a song and dance about it?

I don't get the lack of media support. There is a product there with AFLW, yes?

Yep, you were all onto it!

Lucky Demon number 64.

In '64, the MFC won a famous flag, and tomorrow night we raise our first AFLW premiership flag.

Yep club games. The Vic one would be AFLW State of Origin (AFL-sanctioned that is, women played plenty of state rep footy previous to that). I think the one referred to was either before or after the 2017 season. Vic smashed the Allies - might be a different story now with all the talent in SA and QLD.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
