The AFLW is so uneven that they carefully fixture to ensure the best teams don't play the cellar dwellers.

From last years home and away ladder we play 1st, 3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 13th, 14th and 16th.

Tough start with Cats Lions and Roos first 3 games. Need to hit the ground running and win 2 of these if we want to ensure home finals.

i think the newer teams will improve again. bombers, Sydney and suns will be improvers. i don't think us, crows, Lions and Roos will dominate to the same extent as previous years.

Yes, its like an unofficial divisional system.  Not best pleased with the fixture, really wish we didn't play down in Casey so much.  We couldn't get more centrally located games?

I knew a year without having to suffer the pain of going to Mordor was too good to be true. 😅

Also… Windy Hill (shudder) ‘Nam flashbacks

A 4-day break between the Crows at Norwood Oval and the Saints at RSEA Park… tough. 😳

From a cheer squad point of view Round 4 is the only potential clash (if our men make a prelim). But we’ll split our resources *if need be ❤️💙

...unless we're playing the Dockers, they've finished above us on the ladder, and it's a Friday or Saturday night game! 🤪

Well played AFL. The players want a longer season, but the AFL doesn't, so they tie expansion to crowds then schedule games featuring interstate teams at night in the middle of the week. It's pure genius. 

It's pretty tough on semi professional players to have 4 games in 16 days.

Unbelievable. Was looking forward to another great twilight game at Franghanistan.

It was a nice experience last season, wasn't it.

Now can't have us supporters getting comfortable, what!

Another step closer to Season 2024:

https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1586316/hore-and-hanks-to-lead-again

I'm looking forward to it a bit more this year, what with the men's season not going quite as expected, but also because it's going to be yet another step up in standard. Also, the discussion of this group of leaders makes me proud of the people in this Club.

And we'll get to see the red and blue being skillfully and excitingly showcased for weeks beyond the end of August (hopefully September).

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
