Can't see Fremantle making the eight next season so to have them as Premiers is laughable. I expect Brisbane to start this season as favourites with North Melbourne a close second. And I would think because Brisbane have a fairly young list, they will be fighting for Premierships in the...

Festival of Footy 2.0? Clubs prepping for three games in two weeks Festival of Footy 2.0? Clubs prepping for three games in two weeks With the AFLW season set to extend to 11 rounds in 2024, some clubs are preparing for some of those matches to be condensed into a shorter timeframe By Sarah...

as mentioned in the 2024 fixture thread.

The bye weekend in the Men's game is August 30 - September 1. An 11 round season will finish on November 8-10, and four weeks for the finals series ends with a GF on Sunday December 8.

A shame she'll never leave the Crows, she would look good in Royal Blue & White, playing alongside Garner, Riddell and Bruton. :)

Good to the see the season expanding, if only by one round, but will the AFL look to increasing team list sizes, especially as the seasons grow past 11-12 rounds.

Not sure North would go for key defender when we have just brought in Libby Birch and our defensive stocks are already very good. I think our most important need would be a tall forward, especially if Shierlaw finishes up next season as expected. Also, the injury to Bruton may see us try and...

41 players were traded, and every club had at least one player join or leave this trade period. The Dogs were the busiest, followed by the Lions and Suns. In Out Adelaide 0 McKinnon 1 Brisbane Davison, Hartill 2 Farquharson, Hillier, McKee, Murphy, Pauga, B. Smith, E. Smith 7...

I agree. I hope McCarthy stays, a couple of seasons learning the game with Randall, Shierlaw and King could only be a good thing for her development, but I think she may feel she has been forgotten., she didn't get a look in this season, even when Shierlaw missed a game, Crocker chose to play...

I'd be surprised if Granville is unhappy as she was injured early, but I thought she was unlucky not to get a look in late in the season, but by then we were on a bit of a roll and it was a little hard to drop players when the team was playing so well. McCarthy may have felt a little lost with...

Interesting comment coming from someone who continually makes oblique comments about other posters.

Surely that can't be true, unless the Dees have decided to go in a different direction and conduct a rebuild of some sort.

Birch requests trade to Arden Street. EXCLUSIVE Roos swoop late to secure Dees star in major trade coup Melbourne's Sherriff, West and pick 16 have been traded to Hawthorn for picks 5 and 26. Duursma and Pick 25 traded from Port to Carlton for pick 21.

The incident I was talking about was in the last 90 seconds or so of the third quarter when Jas was attempting a mark, she had it in her hands when she was hit by her opponent, and in her attempt to knock the ball away, her shoulder hit Jas in the jaw, and while it was a genuine attempt, it...

Nothing from the AFL regarding the shoulder to the head of Jasmine Garner late in the third. I think that makes it seven instances in the last 18 months that a North Melbourne AFL or AFLW player (CCJ, McKay, Kearney to name a few) was struck in the head and the MRO thought it didn't warrant a...

Changes happening at the Dees with Gay, Sherrif, West have requesting trades and Wilson going to Gold Coast. Rival club set to swoop as another Demon requests trade They have also delisted two. Demon duo to depart

I thought Leigh Montagna was an excellent AFLW commentator, I think it was his first commentating gig, but he always sounded very confident and knowledgeable either when commentating or providing special comments.

The only “expert” to pay attention to this finals series is Sarah Black. If she tips against North you know we are going to win.

With North becoming the league's new superpower it would be a smart move to look at Marvel for the next few seasons. :D

Interesting that Lulu Pullar got North's nomination, but perhaps not unsurprising, I think she has been wonderful for us this season and has been brilliant in the finals, and after reading last week's article from Sarah Black about our underachievers it's nice to see one of them get some...

You're right about the throws, there were at least 12 occasions where an Adelaide player blatantly threw the ball to a teammate that weren't called, three of them in the Crows defensive goal square. Terrible umpiring and very biased. You're also right about Randall, every time the ball went...

North are the first Expansion team into a Grand Final. Next assignment win the whole thing.

The "Big 3" is now the "Big 5". Geelong have been very good this finals series and were a little unlucky tonight after defeating the Dees last week. There is a lot to build on in the off season and should go into next season thinking they are good enough to make to a Prelim at least next...

I’ve heard the nightmarish stories, some fans are lucky to have functioning limbs.

1 flag in 6 seasons is "dominating", is it?

Technically we are travelling as well. :)

Correct, finals are different, and we showed last week we can play at a level that is good enough to win finals and maintain it for four quarters. Our forward line is beginning to connect, our defense is superior to every other team, and I'll back our midfield against any other team in the...

Incredible final quarter. Congrats Cats. Could we see both 2019 expansion clubs playoff in the GF?

This is either going to be soul crushing for Melbourne or soul crushing for Geelong.
