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.

Great to have the WDemons back! so much fun to watch

Fitzy is really coming on

Hore is a genuine star

And Shelley H, I wish we had that tackling intensity in the mens

  • 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: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
