How good is it to hear our song at the end of the game.

At least we saw a Melbourne team win today.

Well done girls, good win

    Soooo good to sing our song! Super proud of our team, they did us proud. The atmosphere was crazy good, and as cold as it is we didn’t feel it… too much to be excited about!

    PS fourth Red Bull wearing off… about to hit the wall… hard. 😅

    I know Purcell got a lot of it and was very good. To me though she was still only the second best on ground.

    We should be used to it but how clean is Tyla Hanks! Also for one of the shortest players on the ground she is stupidly good getting the ball out to a player running past when being tackled.

    But easily the play of the day for me was with a couple of minutes to go in the 4th there is a ball up at CHF. A WB player has a hold on Hanks and the ball goes to ground. Tyla takes off, gathers the ball clean as and sprints away from the pack. She has a look around and decides she is on the best position and, oh so casually, puts it over the goal umpires head. I don’t like comparing with the men’s game but you won’t see anything more pure than that over there either.

    That was a joy to watch: relentless pressure, slick movement and a team playing for each other.

    This should be on the main board.

    What a team this has been to watch. So hard at it for so long. Purcell is a machine and she in unfairly compared to Tyla who is a cleaner, more efficient machine…

    Love Heath and McNamara for their dare and run.

    Ebert looked good I thought down back with Lampard and Chaplin.

    And hope Tayla is ok - I have a soft spot for selfless CHF who demand the ball in the right spots and put a knee through that spot. Just love having her there. You’d walk taller with her there.

    Fantastic game..have watched this team & been a member since inception. The growth is amazing & exciting. Should have opened the season with the Dees..they showcase the improvement of women’s football. It isn’t the men’s game ..it’s a different game but so exciting because we are now seeing the girls who have played since they’re 6 yrs old transitioning into experienced players. Shocking the timing of our game ..just impossible for me to go to MCG & then out to Mission Oval but the AFL is useless on most things unless you’re the big 4 in Victoria..but get behind our girls..you’re in for a great ride

    They're a delight. Brightened my mood after a deeply depressing showing from the men.

    Absolutely loved Maggie Mahony's game. I reckon we've found one there. The tackling was obviously excellent, but I think she just looks a natural footballer. Brilliant hands in close.

    I wasn't able to watch last nights game live so lived it through the score updates/stats (AFL site) and comments on here, is there a replay available anywhere?

    Great start to a hopefully successful year.

    Thanks, I've tried to avoid Kayo this season.

    They annoy me with their fake offers.

    Great first up game by the girls. Started a bit slow and they have to adjust to the new holding the ball rule which is a lot stricter.

    Chaplin, Purcell and Hanks. But what's with Tayla. I think we should just sit her out of game 1 every year :( Hopefully it was better by the end of the game. though her pack marking was great.

    Gee it was crowded around the ball. It would be nice to see some big long handballs out of packs to space to break, but its a different game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
