Hore will want to bounce back this week after being tagged out of the game last week. Mackin has been in sensational form.

C; McNamara, Purcell, Mackin

HF: Mithen, Harris, Bannan

F: Pisano, Zanker

With Purcell, Harris and Pearce out it's going to be a tough ask to beat North.

    Lost Birch, Gay, West, Sherriff in trades out.
    Went young in the draft.  
    With     Purcell, Aimee Mackin, Harris and Pearce out it's going to be a tough ask to “compete this year”.  That’s 9 out of the best 21 team from 2023.

    Gall deserves a spray from the coach at quarter time for that selfishness

    Composure, non-existent. Just calm down a little

    we've fought well after a poor start. nothing wrong with our heart and endeavour. just need to take a breath and make better decisions

    Shades of last week so far: opposition's link, run and carry, and being beaten in the air, particularly across half forward. Endeavour up again, too, though.

    rubbish free kick. i assume a dangerous tackle but it was nothing of the sort.

    I have no doubt that in most games the bounce of the ball will favour one team, but today we've been killed.

    shelley heath cracking in as usual, paxy seeing a fair bit of it. the team have tried

    but North are a cut above. its an uphill struggle from here.

    Looked a fair way off them that quarter. Ball movement too stagnant (mostly due to skill), and not strong enough in the contest.

    North look good.

    This, unfortunately.

    Also, not realising the lesson Mick said was learnt from last week - too many drawn into the contest leaving nothing outside, in contrast to North.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
