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: 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.
