One coach would just freeze. The other coach at least moves the limited chess pieces he has. We just need our key personnel back. I'm sure we'll end up shafted with Zanker missing next week somehow. The women have done incredibly well to finish second. We weren't that far off even though we were short and didn't play that well. The effort by most of the players out there today should be commended. We're still in the hunt. Goldy, Chaplin and Zanker would have made a huge difference today if they were out there

Those three free kicks in front of goal in the second were killers too, but yeah. Personnel. I don't know how we're going to talk our way around Zanker getting a run next week. Did I say I hate Davidson?

Kate Hore is just an incredible footballer. Lions the better team. Midfield killed us and their accuracy. Proud of the girls. Geez I hope Goldy and Zanks and Chaps are back next week.

Good running Banno

Incredible strike rate. 9 goals 2. If it were 7 goals 4.....

I love the way this team just keeps pushing to the end

Mick has been rolling Harris back into defence at times over the last few games. All too late now

Our accuracy at goal will likely be our undoing. Great goal by the spoon. She's a gem

Since Zanker went off she's been double teamed. We haven't been able to counter this. Probably Gall is still developing. Tays had a fantastic season

The siren went as it left the boot. Took the ump ages to blow the whistle until after it crossed the goal line FFS. Macca and Hore were amazing that quarter. No use going to Harris when she's got 2 on her. And... What on earth is going on with Banno this season? It's not just that the attacking runs have disappeared, her defensive efforts seem effortless. There was a period halfway through the third on the half back flank where she attempted to tackle three times in a row for no effect. She just seemed to jog at her opponents. She's a senior player that needs to step up in these type of games. This would be a win for the ages to get up from here

We're looking cooked. They're getting frees all over the place too

Yep Gillard was smashed

And the commentators saying we were undisciplined

We look rattled.

Disgraceful umpiring patch. All that good work undone

There were three free kicks to us completely ignored including an elbow thrown by Davidson at Heath's neck and then they're gifted a goal. Disgusting I really hate Davidson

Geez we blew a dead set certain goal then

And then O'Hehir awesome

Geez Macca with a beast of a tackle

We can't win a trick this season. Bloody hell. Banno needs to step up now. Great goal Kate. We really need to convert our chances at goal now

Tay! Awesome kick

Let's do it. Clean by hand and foot and get to that break and a prelim. A must win. Go girls do it

How's the weather down there today?

It's a horrible game to watch, but it's footy and the Eagles are at least hanging in there. It would be great to see them roll the blues.

Well this keeps us rolling with the theme of the season in delivering against the odds as we lose one good player after another to injury. Geez we're well and truly underdogs now. Hopefully the lions will be overconfident now and we hit them hard early. I'd never back this team out. Demon Spirit
