Conti is an excellent player. A deserving winner. Also helps that she didn’t have team mates taking votes off her.

Absolutely, well deserved.

Meanwhile, Garner is left wondering once again. Hopefully she'll get the team success on Sunday.


On the All Australian team:

https://www.afl.com.au/aflw/news/1067682/all-aus-team

 

How was Adelaide's Ann Hatchard not included?  The top scorer in the B&F for Adelaide yet 4 others are picked ahead of her? She is easily the best player in the Adelaide side, and if it were not for the huge amount of talent in their team pinching votes from her, would have taken out the B&F.

Probably because if they included her and Chelsea Randall ( who also deserved a jacket), they would have had 6 players from Adelaide in the side.  It would expose the huge leg-up that the AFL gave them, and now we still have as S.A. representative side playing in the Crows colours.  Same story with Brisbane.

Good to see they were beaten by North this week.  But the competition will remain lopsided until Port and the Suns can poach some of the players.

Must say that we are very very fortunate to have Kate Hore as our captain.  

On and off field. Very impressive. True. Honest. Strong. Leader. I could go on and on.  

5 year contract deal imv. (show her how much she is loved by all) 


A deserved All Australian captain.

👏👏👏👏

 

Very true words Norm. Kate is an absolute jewel with her leadership, skills, and always going to a team mate with a wonderful smile full of encouragement and praise. She certainly leads by example and thoroughly deserves to be All Australian Captain. Huble and modest too.

And Kate was also awarded Best Captain by the Players Association and 4th in the AFLPA MVP.

Heath finished 5th in the Most Courageous, while A.Mackin came 5th for the Best First Year Player.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
