Schleicher is a decent out for them. Two time all Australian defender, Collingwood VC and first choice to play on Tayla Harris. Will also be interesting to see if they play Bri Davey after being close to not playing with hamstring issues. 
If we kick straight we will win this. 
 

PS I am really looking forward to the game. There seems to be something more authentic about women’s footy.

That's a strong side. Interested to see Campbell the only girl I don't know much about.

I think I was at a training last season when she was running around within the team.

If she is the same one I watched, I noticed she was a very good kick, and she is a reasonable size.

Both good attributes for us, as a key position player.

Worried that we're still vulnerable to not kicking big enough scores against good teams. Hopefully Campbell takes the second ruck heat off Harris to give us a permanent marking target inside 50.

I'm open to winning more Grand Finals 19-15 but it's a high risk strategy.

I saw Campbell is our first father daughter selection.

Do you know who the father is?

Defence is solid

Shelly and Goldy will stream off the HB line

Hit up Harris or put it in space for Bannan to run onto

Pies don't have a chance!

Congrats Tyla Hanks on game 50. Classiest player in the AFLW

Not a straightforward opener by any means, but we'll have too much for the pies.

Dees by 15 points

It’s like how footy used to be.

 I’m here now and although the game is over four hours away there’s an awesome vibe already. I just walked across the ground and the surface is perfect. 🥳

 

Very excited for this one, will have to watch from home though as my kids have an indoor cricket final. Oh, the glamour...

...I'm sure it's been raised elsewhere, but (as much as I love AFLW) could the fixture have been moved so it didn't conflict with the AFLM season?  I "feel" that starting now is taking the attention away from the league that it deserves.

Also, can something be done about Princes Park?  The ground is fine but the stands are appalling, the ancillary services worse and the toilets are terrifying.  Not really family friendly! Crazy as it sounds, I much prefer Victoria Park.

 

Great to have AFLW back, and a fantastic fixture to open the season with.

We have selected a very strong side, so there will be no excuses if we don't win. Hopefully the desire to go back to back is very strong.

Campbell is an interesting selection. Clearly we will try to nurse Pearce through the regular season, but we do look pretty tall with her in the team.

Hopefully we haven't sacrificed too much run, as this tends to be more important than size in AFLW.

I love Princes Park! The old stands have tonnes of character. I have so many great memories of this ground, from 20 years masquerading as a Carlton supporter ‘til more recently at the W games and training sessions and of course… the Casey Grand Final. ❤️💙🏆

 

Is the game on free-to-air?

Will be watching tonight.

Why are we unfurling the flag tonight at Carlton's home ground & not at Casey at our home game?

Where and when the unfurling takes place was the Club’s choice. Casey Fields was where they’d love to do it but they chose Ikon because the crowd will be bigger and the girls love playing here.

edit: of course they love playing at Casey more, but Ikon makes more sense. 

Edited by WalkingCivilWar

The ladies' skills have been getting better and better each year, with last year a standout. I now really enjoy watching the Dees play. Will seem very different without Daisy playing, though. Good luck to Mick and the ladies for tonight and the whole season. 

I think there’ll be quite a big crowd tonight. There’s already heaps of people here. Anyone who’s yet to arrive, come through Gate 6. The other Gates are closed or open, depending on who you ask. Gate 6 is definitely open. 👍🏽

Feel like changing my pseudonym in honour of Karen Paxman... 😉

she's getting plenty of it early

Sherriff needs some tutorials from chocco. She can't hit the side of a barn with her set-shots.

 

Early days, but...

Impressive footy.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
