NON-MFC: AFLW Rd 01

Anyone watching Swans v Pies?

I hope the medicos have best-practice diagnostic and management skills for insect inhalation...

Serious note: Initial thoughts on the level of this season's skill and game plan improvements? I'm expecting 'noticeable' in both, and a challenge for our girls to keep up, having been leaders in pretty well all the previous seasons.

    Both teams pretty rusty. Plenty of endeavour but quality lacking so far.

    As the same as the men's I hope essendon & Collingwood lose.

    This game has been good, Molloy is a superstar & they have kicked away from the pies. 

    It has got a lot better, higher scoring, better use of the ball & better marking.

    The pies girls must have been watching the men because one of the girls took out a swans player resulting in a mellee

    Swans can mark the ball. Filth can't. Therein lies the difference. Best part of game has been the dust up.

    Double header.

    Good luck to Daisy coaching her 1st game tonight.

    But nice to start the weekend with a pies loss.

    Daisy got her first win... but with a young side they'll have trouble running out games against the more established clubs.  but a win is a win for her.

    Doggies miles off the pace today. no decent senior players other than Blackburn. Going to be another long season for them by the looks of it.

    Some 'ouch' scores unfolded and unfolding today. AFL/W might have some equalisation challenges ahead of it.

    ...and we have all 3 of today's 'killers', and only 1 of the 'prey', in our 'side' of the draw...

    One hour to go and I can't find the gameday thread.

    Here's the AFL site link, for what it is worth.

    I'm staggered The Corporation has made such a bollocks of AFLW again. It is almost as if there's some kind of disrespect for women in the AFL-Channel 7-Herald Sun nexus.

    It’s a shame the Cameras are not on the other side of the Ground at GC

    Nobody is in the stands. 
    Saints are playing well

    Westie getting a lot of it for Hawthorn, but don't think she'd have a very high effective disposal percentage, though.....

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
