Troy and Harper Buntine's chance meeting with Tayla Harris has built an amazing bond through football

I think this is why the AFLW is growing in popularity and support.

The players ability to connect with the public and especially young girls will hopefully see it rise and rise in the future

And our Tayla Harris continues to show that she is a star on and off the field.

This is such a lovely story! Sounds like Taylah has gone above and beyond for her young friend Harper and that local club. Glad the MFC has also been supportive of this!

The amount of hate she attracts from the some men is abhorrent. It derives first from her having the gall to be the face of a fledgling league of women athletes, and it worsened with the social media bile she received from these same men for the amazing photo that C7 had on its Twitter.

She has been nothing but an amazing orbital figure that has protected other women in the league and has admirably beared the scars of those toxic meteors.

And I want her to be Demon till she is done.

Completely agree and we'll said @rpfc

Ever since she debuted with us in those initial exhibition games having a long kicking style that brought back memories of Darren Bennett. She has been an amazing focal point for women's footy on and off the field.

How dare she be photographed mid match wearing appropriate footy gear and kicking the footy as hard as she can. Still can't believe the relentless social media abuse she has had to deal with from that photo and audacity of her being a pioneer in the women's game and having a statue built celebrating her status in the women's game.

I know people who have met Taylah through football & they speak highly of her.

She's a credit to herself and we're lucky to have her.

I'm with 'rpfc', would like to see her stay a Demon until she's done.
