Not to long to go now!

In the lead-up, I've put together a couple of trivia questions for the devoted W crew here.

 

9 days til Round 1...

Emoji-react with your answer:

Q: Melbourne has scored two of the top three winning margins in AFLW so far (78 and 88 points). Which teams did these wins come against?

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.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
