    Outstanding second half. we smashed them. all our leaders stood up when the game was in the balance. It'll take a very good team to deny us again this year.

    hopefully the men can repeat the dose next week.

    go dees

    What a game from Heath. Her job on Davey changed the game. Mackin, McNamara, Hore and Hanks superb. Campbell was impressive for a second gamer. I'd say no change for next week. Go Dees it's going to take something drastically wrong for us not to win the premiership this year.

    That was a brilliant 2nd half. The new skipper was outstanding and led the way after half time.

    Our forward line looks like it will function well. 

    Lets hope it's an omen for next Thursday night

    The whole half, indeed, D11!😊

    I thought moving Hore and West into the middle made a huge difference, even though West was a bit off her best. 

    The skill level of Harris, Hanks and McNamara is really high, and I love watching them play.

    But individuals aside, that was a cracking game of team footy. Only 2 years ago I couldn't watch AFLW due to its low standard - not any more. That was great to watch. Our pressure, spread from stoppages, and running for each other in the 2nd half was brilliant. 

    Great win - go Dees!

    Shelley Heath was so important, and did a LOT of hard work, especially considering how tiny she is. All while kicking a quiet 2 goals and keeping Davey ineffectual.

    Powerful sums it up for me!

    Having 5 players who are genuine aerial threats inside 50 whilst not losing speed is such an advantage. Being able to put a score on the board when you’re on top is so important in this competition.

    Agree with that. some of our play from the middle into the forwaed 50 was amazing. Hore was captain fantastic in the 2nd half. I thaught our defence started to get things together but Gay and Birch look like they are still on holidays. Shelley Heath is probably my favorite player. She went from being a half back flanker to midfield tagger and dangerous forward. Eliza McNamaras 2nd half was excellent. Good to see her get some clear rouches and great ball movement.

    Lets hope the blokes can do to the filth what the girls have done. My beer is tasting fine.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
