Mmmmm, worried now that Paxy's out....... 😟

Yeah, I thought of Paxy's importance when reading about the Crow's midfield - someone who might trouble them, or at least distract them from a concentration on TH.

Still, let's look forward to saying 'Silly us!' at about 5.30 on Saturday!

    I am a bit surprised they dropped Campbell. Developing as a ruckman so I would keep playing her.

    She got a reprieve last week with Harris injured...as I said then I reckon playing her has been a big part of Pearce's resurgence.

    Maybe it's a longer term strategy but I like what she brings & would also keep playing her.

    She’s a very good prospect. Can ruck. Athletic, agile, decent mark. Very solid start to her career with us.

    maybe time for a refresh?

     

    Agree and aside from physically, maybe a breather to process a huge amount of learning, ready for the back end of the season.

    So true and so far beyond what I was expecting even based on the growing positives last VFLW season. Will be interesting to see how we go without her as the chop out for Pearce tomorrow. But even aside from how she helps the team structurally, it's a relief just to have a legitimate future ruck prospect in the works again.

    I'm in the air between taipei and seoul for this one.    Hopefully we win.  Last time I was in the air for a game was the gather round. 🫥😐

    There is only the one small grandstand and it's basically reserved for officials, player's families, etc., even us long term die-hard members who attend very game at that god forsaken place don't get in. 😆

    It would be news to me, but if they say so maybe give it a try.  As long as they aren't charging more than the general admission $10.

    on a serious note @WalkingCivilWar should i pre-purchase grandstand tickets?

    Tickets are all general admission. $10 each. Can’t be bought at the gate. CAN be bought using this link

    Yeah the lack of seating sucks. Everything about games at Casey sucks, imo anyways. Give me Ikon any day.

    On a side topic, the doggies have declined at an alarming rate. Well beaten by Carlton last night.

    From being the flagbearers and pioneers of women's footy with us and winning an early flag to being no wins from 6 this season. Looks like terrible mismanagement at the Whitten oval.

    I need a comfortable win today, to (almost) erase the stresses and strains of the ‘uncomfortable’ lead-up to this game.  I think we will get it! Dees by around 4 goals.  
    I’d also love for us to keep our amazing sequence of ‘best ever in AFLW history’ performances in tact.  Go Dees, you can do it!

    Great first quarter dees. We're so clean and fit, running two ways and outnumbering at both ends. Could have been even further in front.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
