  1. Yes FWIW I agree
  2. Great post DiO. Do you think the McClelland is worth a topic in itself? Could keep an eye on it during the next ten weeks. Shades of the Death riding Freo thread having the Pies, Port and Brissy all lose this weekend was handy.
  3. Love that Rivers and Kozzie are signed all the way till the end of 2027, where they will have each reached be the ripe old age of 26 years old!
  4. 1. Hore 2. Hanks 3. Purcell 4.Heath 5. Bannan 6. Harris
  5. That third quarter by us was the champagnyest of champagne football. And against a side that is expected to challenge for a top 4 spot. We were a class or two above.
  6. Schleicher is a decent out for them. Two time all Australian defender, Collingwood VC and first choice to play on Tayla Harris. Will also be interesting to see if they play Bri Davey after being close to not playing with hamstring issues. If we kick straight we will win this. PS I am really looking forward to the game. There seems to be something more authentic about women’s footy.
  7. Dirty talk!! Love it!
  8. Whately the other day described Parish as a “nice footballer and that’s about it”. He also said that Parish’s management need to have a long, hard look at themselves if they are advising him to knock back the reported 5 years @ $650,000 I agree and don’t want him at the Dees on that sort of contract
  9. At pick 73 Larkey has to be one of the all time best draft pick ups
  10. If we had a tagger that shut down a Daicos or Neale we would be lauding them. I don’t have a problem with McGuinness trying to blanket Clarry for 3 qtrs. I am not sure if Goodwin would make the same comments again but it was great to see him deviate out of the ‘trained incredibly hard’, ‘I’m incredibly proud’ cliches for a moment.
  11. Exceptional circumstances here Spalding. You must be really proud. Maybe support the Hawk AFLW side during the home and away and come back to the Dees if the Hawks don’t make finals?
  12. 14 of the 17 other captains voted Melbourne to go back to back this season. Get on board Demonlanders. You know it makes sense!
  13. Jeepers! Stefan Martin was Max’s ruck partner that day. That does feel like a long time ago
  14. https://www.afl.com.au/aflw/video/1015836/free-the-demons-how-melbourne-turned-pressure-into-a-premiership?videoId=1015836&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1692612300001 Best ever!
  15. I’ll be honest I thought Campbell was not going to make it. She played as a forward in a couple of the early VFLW games and looked out of place. As Dees in October said she played in the ruck today and was getting a lot of air at the centre bounces. Apparently she was a Victorian age high jumper so that will explain the leap. In the last she was out jumping the Hawks ruck and hitting the ball forward where our mids would run onto it and kick quickly to the forwards. Early days but looked good.
  16. Yeah it’s not working for me either
  17. God bless his cotton socks, but I am pretty sure when the Collingwood players saw Godders kicking on the run goals from just inside 50, they knew it wasn’t going to be their day
  18. Perhaps we can do our own version of this comp? At least we wouldn’t be putting up Nathan Carroll as a potential best ever defender. Can’t wait to see if Simon Godfrey is on offer as a mid.
  19. The whole thing is tragic. Misspelling Sean Wight’s name, the choice of players and then the shameless marketing grab for your personal details. They need my date of birth to enter ?? FO!
  20. How did it go WCW? News? Vibe? Did you leave the night injury free?
  21. Ten minutes into the last - Judd McVee channels his inner Mary Fowler and hits a running Petracca on the chest, with a perfectly weighted, long pass who then kicks truly from 50. We go 30 points up and extend our 8 game winning streak over Carlton.
  22. And the US. There can’t be a lack of athletic 6’ 10” centres who miss out on the NBA.
  23. I remember he had a purple patch about half way through his first season. He was kicking opportunistic goals from everywhere and I thought we had found a real player. Unfortunately it wasn’t to be. Having said that, not too many AFL players can retire with an iconic elimination final sealer on their highlight real.
  24. Salem is so overrated here
  25. Hopefully they have learnt from the Pies/Hawks game and won’t be going at anything less than 100%
