    Threw the ball to Pierce instead of umpire for a bounce

    She gave the ball to Loz Pearce rather than the ump at a stoppage directly infront of goal.

    Umpire correctly pinged her for time wasting.

    Great win. Gutsy and hard fought between 2 v good sides,  also  great ball movement.

    Very good start to the season against a tough opponent

    Kate Hore class the difference. Macken very good as well. Shelley Heath a little tiger as always.

    Not perfect but always great to win at that sh*tpile. We don't get the W down there too often.

    Go Dees

    Grace Beasley just a perfect replacement for Westy

    Lamp on ball is good coaching.

    Getting Chappy more involved at half back (work to do on the disposal but love the aggression).

    Fitzy getting more involved.

    They’ve really adapted the team nicely.

    Anyone know if Pisano is injured or just not ready? Speedy crumber is the one thing we still need to lock it forward more.

    I was wondering that about Pisano. Went back through the info I could find about the pre season games, and it sounded like she played, but no reports. She wasn't named as an emergency either.

    Oh wow, I take back my previous statement. Was ironing, looked up and the replay only showed Pearce with the ball and no Paxy 😂

    Well done everyone who ventured down the highway. Great noise. Drowned out that horrendous 'Geee-Long!'

    I'm not a consistent follower of AFLW but every time I see that girl play, I just wonder how extraordinary she would be if she had played Aussie rules all her life.

    @Demonland, could we have the passage to, and completion of, Hore's second goal as vid of the week?

    And not on Wednesday's formal injury list, either.

    After looking at the draw I said if we can be 2-1 after three rounds I'll be very happy.  I guess we are half way there.

    Very good win.  Given their three second half goals were all due to horrendous stuff ups on our part right in front of their goal there is some room for easy improvement.

    Harris' shoulder is a worry.  Being totally removed from the situation I'm not in a great position judge, but my gut feeling is she probably needs surgery to fix it, but doesn't want to to be sidelined from her football/boxing/work for two to three months.  So she just does the rehab/rest each time it goes and gets it passable enough to play.  But looking how minimal the knocks needed to be tonight to put her out of action I don't think that's a realistic option anymore.  Surgery now would most likely finish her for this season, so if I'm right perhaps she plays on as best she can and then the club tells her she has to get it done as soon as the season is over.

    • Demonland changed the title to AFLW GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs Geelong

    We've been blessed with a couple of outstanding captains. Daisy's record speaks for itself and I thought Kate Hore almost single handedly kept us in touch in the first half.

    Good game to watch.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
