AFLW: QF vs Adelaide
Holy [censored] they must have been mounted when they wrote this.... First... Gritty Kangaroos and classy Lions win through to AFLW grand final Then later..... Richmond will now meet North Melbourne in the AFLW grand final only a fortnight after the Tigers drew with them to deny the Kangaroos a top-four finish. Amazingly bad

AFLW: QF vs Adelaide
Great article about a team always just missing out and how we've built a great core and game style https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-10-21/melbourne-demons-aflw-premiership-window-wide-open/101555732

AFLW: QF vs Adelaide
I thought that was a real breakout game by Mackin tonight. Goldy is one of my favourite players for pace and taking the game on but Mackin was just at another level for breaking the lines. The game isn't as skillful as the blokes but I've really loved watching our progress over the last few years. We're as tough as nails and just going in hard and running for each other. Some fantastic passages of play tonight. Really fun to watch us strangle a good team and break the lines once we settled down after the first. It's great we've got the week off now to rest and reset. There's a few niggling injuries in the team by the looks and that week off will really help. We should have a fitter faster team to have a crack at the flag this year.

JVR Extends to 2025
Aggression attack attitude and..... He can take a bloody mark and kick straight. He should go alright in the seniors this year. From what I've seen, I reckon he's ready

AFLW: QF vs Adelaide
I do love going out to see a band and then hunkering down at midnight to watch a delayed match. Sounds like a great night

Your favourite music to get you through to the Grand Final
The Tote turns forty in a week or so and if I was in Melbourne I'd be going to see the evergreen screamfeeder on Friday 4th. They've just put out another album and it's glorious 90s guitar pop sunshine. Another bloody brilliant Brisbane band HITS play Thursday 10th. they're sensational as well.

AFLW: Rd 09 vs Essendon
Nice win. We laid some really hard tackles and hurt them today. I think the last quarter arm wrestle was probably good practice for us before the finals. I thought Paxy might have been on the slide after last season but Gee she's playing well this year. One of her best games I think. How do you win a footy match by outscoring the bombers by a multiple of five and yet lose the free kick count 11 to 16? Baaaaaall!

Saints Sack Ratten & Appoint Lyon as Coach
We were that club before intervention and Paul Roos. I really feel for their supporters. They don't deserve this. Rebuild then rebuild then rebuild then rebuild. Sound familiar? They're not irrelevant, they are essential to a vibrant competition as are Norf. Be angry at the clubs that seem to get gifted a ride by the AFL. Maybe there's a new thread. Would the demons have won a flag without AFL assistance? Mmmm

AFLW: McNamara to miss 2022 season
It's been nice to see she's still been part of the playing group throughout her injury. Great to see her coming back

AFLW: Rd 07 vs Western Bulldogs
I think she's just the best player in the comp now. No-one seems to pack mark better, hit players harder, kick longer and now she's one of the best rucks in the comp. She's a dead set weapon. Her game has just come on leaps and bounds in the last 2 years. Defenders must be scared (censored) when they know she's flying into a pack. She's just fearless. Is there another player in the AFLW that can consistently kick 50 metres? She allows Bannon to get free and play the second forward role really well (like BB should in the men's team if we had a good key forward). Great result today. The team is just humming. After so many years of being really competitive, we deserve to snag a flag. Great to watch.

AFLW: Rd 06 vs Fremantle
Yep 17 frees to Freo to13 Dees when they were beaten by 5 goals was crazy. Great to hear the Melbourne supporters on the TV. Stinnear's changes are great to see and kept Freo on the back foot. This team is just continuing to build and after watching them be so competitive since the start of the AFLW comp, they really deserve to win a flag. Hopefully a nice clean run into the finals. Go Dees

Hawks racism allegations (merged thread)
Karen Kennett has a much better ring to it than Jeff. A "bump in the road" according to Karen. What a leader.

2022 GRAND FINAL
BT mentioned it would be the first Smith to win the Norm Smith. Fun fact. Oh and the only player out there with long socks just kicked a goal.

2022 GRAND FINAL
Yup, goal. Imagine playing a sub. Crazy

2022 GRAND FINAL
Alright, 13 mins left. Murder them Geelong. Beat them by 100 and make them never want to play footy again. Swans just pathetic.

2022 GRAND FINAL
Oh of course. BT just said that the crowd got whipped into a frenzy by Robbie Williams and Geelong got into the spirit of that. God I love Daisy.

We've just lost internet. How am I going to watch a rerun of Mash instead of this?
