  1. Nice touch with the inside 50 line being a rainbow!
  2. So many good marks! We need to begin presenting targets for her to kick to
  3. Oh poor Rhi Watt, hopefully nothing serious
  4. Well, this ain't it... we need to settle and get our defensive zone running. Shame there that Ivey kicked too far
  5. Dakota's new haircut reminds me of Harmesy
  6. Very reminiscent in terms of colour palette!
  7. Idk, I dig the technicolour heat map. It's so ugly it cycles into cool! We look very staid on the other hand...

    Overnight from Sydney to Melbourne is pretty much always 10 hours and runs to the timetable. The same is not true of the reverse, often gets in an hour or so late. Travelling during the day... always delayed! Also, too aggravating!

    Or a $90 each way, 10 hr train trip 😂

    I know others aren't thrilled with this, but I personally can't wait because it means I can immediately start the season with a game! Really important to me given I suspect I won't the same flexibility to travel next year and I'll still be based in Syd But sucks for a lot of supporters who would otherwise be able to attend our first game of the season of course
  11. I honestly would not have been aware of a lot of the AFLW matches (despite following the MFC AFLW and AFLW insta, and having both apps) without being engaged in Demonland and the Demon Army. It's amazing how little I've noticed the marketing, despite it being very relevant to my interests!
  12. Excellent translation of my straight bat, Goody caricature, retelling of the sordid business Luci!
  13. She made the 'A Call to Arms' thread but then some of the more typically negative posters were saying things which then got deleted. Then the mods locked it overnight just so people would cool their jets.
  14. Seeing the comments about women supporting AFLW.... I'm not a woman but I've spent a lot of time in the past few weeks telling people who asked me in Syd about "how am I still talking AFL?!" that I'm watching a vastly superior product of the AFLW MFC (compared to the AFLM MFC)
  15. Quince paste and hand picked grapes... surely that is MFC marketing territory?! What have we been doing?! 😂 Edit: for clarity, I live in Sydney lol
  16. Surely a stick with a pom pom... a flogger! So you can give people a good flogging 😂
  17. Unfortunately a lot of the natural growth and interest in the game has been hampered by the AFL's strange decision making in respect of the AFLW. The most obvious instance being last year's grand final, where they forgot to secure venues in various states and so then we ended up in Springfield... Scheduling games at suburban grounds is one thing (and has its own charm) but doing so at 5 pm or other strange times on a Thursday or Friday makes it difficult for a lot of working people to travel and attend. That'll eat into crowd numbers... It's important to make things accessible to the general public to grow interest - which is why we prefer to play our home games at Ikon Park (heart of the city and all that) over Casey Fields. There are a whole lot of double standards used to justify the lower pay of the women. It sounds reasonable until the bigger picture is looked at.
  18. Ahhh I misread this as look at the early call we made for the 2023 season, which understandably upset me. I'm ready to go for 2024, back to tentatively believing in us as flag chances. We have issues but we can resolve them!
  19. Interesting article! Of course there should be some incentive for the boys, but it feels a bit disingenuous to give the boys the same $250,000 as the girls when the money means so much more (and goes so much further for the improvement of) the girls comp! The difference between equality and equity in action
  20. ...because under defamation laws, publishers (ie Andy) can be held vicariously liable for the posts made on the publisher's platform. Use your googling skills if you want to read the post.
  21. All the best Kye Turner, we barely knew ye.
  22. Yeah we've looked a bit off at points. And I really was expecting more of a showing from North
  23. Great grab from Purcell! Shame it didn't end in a goal
  24. That was head high on Goldie, not holding the ball!
  25. Good work by Mackin and Gary defending there
