Don't let him devalue our 👏 'like' emoji! A big purple 👊 to you, Barrett!

Also notice Zanker's pressure work in Banno's first 2 goals. She's not always 'on' in this regard, so it was good to see. Memo to the Army: you've got 'Banno, Banno, Banno, Oi, Oi, Oi!' nailed; time to work on something for some others? Keep up the great work!

...then the shirt you were wearing?

I see irony in your avatar, ade 😁

Wow. Hard to see why they bother. It offers an elevated training/playing environment but it hardly offers 'pathway', with the odd exception.

It's Essendon's place in the 8 that is probably the only realistic hope, and that would probably come down to Carlton v Essendon in the last round. Delicious.

Nearly three weeks without content? Scandalous! Well, I'm here to rectify that, by observing that (as readers may have noticed) I've gone rather 'bananas', posting-wise, after today's pleasant and character-filled win by the girls. Where better than here to post that?

Particularly good on a number of fronts, Biff, so I reckon worth slightly more than just a 'Thanks' emoji in this case 👍 🙂

Well, that's what happens when you LEAN into French PASTRIES! (Think about it...)

How does Casey (or any VFL list) money compare with local club money? Age-wise, Tommo was a very good Casey player as recently as this year.

In the absence of a contract, come 31 October (I think?) what is a player's status, then?

'The Demons will be more fierce', @Meggs? Yep! 👏 Mark down, though, for one faulty prediction: 'typically gusty Cranbourne wind'. The weather smiled; the wind even went elsewhere in the last when we were due to kick against it 😊

We're doing alright on the distaff side. Geez, Sinead and Blaithin are fun to watch and becoming / have become some footballers. Aimee around the corner again in Season 9, too. (Could we also add today's debutante, too? Cos the Celticy name?)

And...?

What an interesting character! 😄 https://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/1680845/wk-8-post-match-interview-saraid-taylor?videoId=1680845&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1729330412001

It's up already: https://www.afl.com.au/aflw/video/1246908/aflw-match-replay-melbourne-v-richmond?videoId=1246908&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1729329007001

Any chance Tommo becomes a Casey player?

I hope I can vote after watching the replay. I'm afraid I go to our goals, at fence level, every quarter, so can't do the backs or even the mids justice in my 'live' perceptions. That being said, it's getting to be some forward line!

It's messy isn't it. Was sort of a 'friend', though, it seems, over those compressed last 3?

She says it just pinches the nose a bit; otherwise she forgets she's got it on until an oppo player tries a Batmobile sledge!

Just for the name!

Very! 'Twas all a nice tonic today after my last two trips here!

But our girls managed to stop them - dead - on 95% of available occasions. 👊

Yep, but it was a good side doing it, as you'd expect of them, not a poor side letting it happen.
