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 

 

 

big 3rd quarter from sydney. much better ball movement, taking i50 marks and converting

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.

Eagles haven't been much chop since coming into the comp.

Best of luck Daisy. I think you'll need it.

 

looks like the hometown umpiring applies to the Eagles ALFW team as well as the mens. Tiges getting reemed by the umps here.

Possibly not?

Though...Richmond.

And (un)officials.


Eagles with all the run. Tiges off the pace.

Daisy looking good here for first coaching win

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.

Well done Daisy. 

...and well done for passing the Cameras On The Coaches Fishbowl Test. The game threw everything at her!

I also wanted to say well done to Daisy. 

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.....

  • 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.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
