(It's their home game, right?)

Anyway, good to see Colvin back. Taylor the consequent last-in-first-out victim. Always awks after the fuss made on their debuts (K.Brown says hullo), particularly in Saraid's case with all her personality splashed over the Club's website before and after the game.

Take lots of Grippo, girls, and I hope there are a few more Dees fans at the game than just the spinning ones on the boundary line. Sounds like Aaron Davey will get a few there, at least?

Really looking forward to this one.

If we keep tackling with the ferocity we've shown of late, we should win this.

Pedal to the metal girls

Can’t help but admire how the Demons have turned their season around after shocking run with injuries and the loss of many players during the offseason!

Good luck tonight!

Must win

Outstanding effort to turn the season around. I think the backs to wall win in Adelaide was the turning point.

Hawks have been very good. it's a tough challenge so we'll need every bit of grit and determination to get the W

Luckily, we have grit and determination in spades

Dees by 7 points

Good luck to our girls tomorrow it would be ultra sweet if to beat the Rising Hawks up in Cairns. Great to see Aaron address the team and give them a bit of a pep talk, he looks in great shape.

Great effort by all and deserve to  make 8 if we beat the Hawks which will be very hard. But not impossible by any means. 

BTW Timothy it is round 10 I believe. We have a 5/4 record. 

hawks opponents ladder positions as of today: 14, 18, 3, 10, 12, 17, 6, 11, 16, 

deees opponents ladder positions as of today: 12, 4, 1, 6, 8, 16, 3, 10, 5

and they lost to 3rd (adelaide). 

this is gonna be super close tonight

not sure about that as i think they do it on ladder position from previous years?

does show what an absolute farce an 11 game season is instead of 17, especially when things like % can decide the grand final venue

Yep, @biggestred, I think it's a reflection of their 14th finish, vs our 5th, last year?

Also, though, something evidently in the 2024 water at Hawthorn?

Definitely a big improvement from them but probably more a fighting for finals improvement rather than a might finish clear 2nd type improvement imho

No The clubs classified as expansion get favourable draws then another lot (middle six) an harder draw and the top 6 which we are in got the harder draw. 

 

Massive game!!

Cmon girls!

To be sure, DD!

Indeed, for its consequences, it's a bit grand-final-ish.

So, a dilemma for Mick in his pitch to the players: a do-or-die grand-final-ish rev-up, a middling 'use the experience for a finals campaign', or steady-as-she-goes with whatever has turned things around (simple and relaxed, effort and selflessness).

Or are these all compatible?

No Kate Hore or Gaby tonight 😦

Goddam injury curse. We’ve had rotten luck this year

Hore out is a huge blow

No kate hore will hurt us & the hawks are a good team.

Hopefully bannan can put on another performance like last week

good start, but need better controlled kicks going inside 50. 

No free to air or free streaming. I cannot find a radio program, can anyone suggest a station that is broadcasting? 

I think the AFLW is dropping the ball for the Demons. Such an important game for us.

that was excellent ball use and movement that gets rewarded wiht a goal

gosh our forward line is just all babies

very positive start. 

well slotted by Gall

Yeah, you'd think with what riding on it and a top2 side playing they'll show it FTA.
