Aimee Mackin is playing her 2nd ever game of AFL. Next year she will be our best player

 

I thought I was optimistic saying 2 years! 

But I suspect it will only be Hore and Hanks in competition.

This team is something special!

How they adapt to each oppositions strengths is just exceptional. Cats were super tough at the footy early and we just ramped it up around the footy and took away their strength whilst allowing the rest of our game to shine. Unbelievable! So rapt for them ❤️💙❤️💙

[Little Goffy 14,530]

I had to be in transit for the final quarter so didn't get to watch it, but based on what I saw when I opened the laptop back up when I got home, it was a big and exciting final quarter.

 

WHAT!?

Very impressive again. Cats brought the heat early but we absorbed it, steadied and put them to the sword.

We’re a very well-oiled machine and a joy to watch. Ball movement and connection first rate.

Purcell, Heath, Mithen and West all cracked in. Pearce good in the ruck.

Paxy very good. She doesn’t seem to be aging at all. Zanker physical and a handful for the cats defence

Hore with the votes. Outstanding again.

Aimee Mackin with flashes of brilliance. Reckon she’ll be better than her sister. We’ve hit the jackpot with those 2

14 in a row. Fantastic consistency. Smashing all comers so far this season.

This team just don’t look like losing. What a pleasure it is to watch them play

Go Dees

[rpfc 28,406]

Methodical.

Its so commanding - you get annoyed when players aren’t perfect. The connection they have with each other on the counter is pure gold and glory. 

The men’s team can learn something from this group when it comes to decision making and using hands and not panicking around the 50.

Decent crowd on the camera side and that Aimee Mackin move off the back flank toward centre wing was absolute dynamite.

[Maldonboy38 6,402]

How great to watch are these women!?!? Brilliant. Their end to end handball chains for goals are the standout. And the last quarters - wow.

But who was that commentator? Lots of ex-footballers and commentators show bias, but she was grumpy, ungracious and unable to even commentate about the Dees. She often just went silent when someone gave us a compliment. 

[Lexinator 1,672]

No team has kicked a goal against Dees in 4th quarter this season! 🤯

[Deemented Are Go! 3,677]

On top of the ladder with a % of 306.9 after 5 games. Not too shabby at all. 
 

Can anyone do the math on that last quarters stat for this year? Must be something like 140 points for / 5 points against. 
 

Can’t wait to watch the game later!

Best win of the year. Geelong had a real go but just lack polish. 49 points against a side pushing top 4 is great. Imagine if we had Harris in rhe fwd line. Even bigger test next week. Hore, Paxman, Zanker and Pearce our best. Hanks was great as well. Love it when Goldie gets the ball as it is real heart in mouth stuff that.

Is one of the Cats players wearing a hair net? Looks like she’s stumbled out of a tuck shop 

Did she have a ciggie hanging out of her mouth?

If my quick maths is correct, 4th quarters are 125 points for and 4 points against, the last 3 rounds the opposition in fact hasn't scored a point in the 4th. Incredible.

Holy heck! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,121]

I thought the Hawks got fumbly last week because they're at that standard.

But tonight I realised it happens because that's what this Melbourne team makes the opposition. Real pressure becomes implied pressure, and, the real pressure still continues, unabated.

[BDA 22,751]

Crows and Suns game on Sunday evening will be a worth a watch. haven't seen the Crows play yet but the commentators reckon they're our nearest rival. Suns are decent so will hopefully test them. North and Lions aren't as good as us based on their game last week.

[Jibroni 5,003]

Kate Hore has sublime skills, would give most men a run for their money. And always good to get a win at the dunghole of a place.

Loved seeing the women live. The way they all crack in.
