Casey Demons play Williamstown at Williamstown, 7pm tonight (Free entry).

Game will also be on the radio from 6pm via WARFRadio.com (and delay free 89.1 FM at the ground).

There *might* also be a video stream. Check for VFLW on Youtube closer to the 7pm bounce.

Not great scheduling tbh

I read that Tayla Harris wants 150k for her appeal to the sport. Seems a joke to me.

If anyone deserves that money surely it's Erin Phillips. Watched some of her highlights and in the nicest way she looks like a man the way she moves.
 
Seems like you could get 3 good players for the money she wants.
Most of the $ she's asking for would be outside the cap (as an ambassador or media gig) so not necessarily pushing anyone out, but there'd be less coin to give other good players for similar roles. Our better players seem to already have some extra gigs they'd be getting reasonable money from though.
As a player she's what we need imo, as we lack a good contested marking forward, but yes could be a destabilising influence/distraction.

This will be really interesting
Wonder what's going Carlton's way? I think Tayla would fit in well for us, Cunningham has looked ordinary for a couple of years bar one or two games and our lack of a big forward showed a few times this season when our chipping game broke down and we needed to go to a contest.

Seems like an alright deal for us, pending Purcell's recovery from her ACL. We hit the draft hard last year so not as fussed about missing the top end this year, plus it was stitched up with the 5 priority picks.

Sad to see Emonson go but I'm fine with this outcome.
 
Our backline was already our weakest line, losing Emo as well as Downie doesn’t help that. Good pick up for Geelong. Purcell is a gun though, our midfield will be elite for the next decade with Purcell, Hanks, Mithen, Zanker, Lampard and McNamara running through. Not that stoked about Harris and would have preferred to have kept Emonson, but oh well

Agree our defence is thin but we played most of the year without Downie and Emonson and were ok. Tarrant I think will be solid as a KPD to replace Downie, although Colvin is also getting on. Wish we'd kept Cordner.
Cunningham must be gone then.

Harris is good for marketing. Between Gawn, our other star men's players, Daisy Pearce, and now Harris, we have some good players across both team for purposes of advertising, sponsorship deals etc.

Richmond surprisingly delisted Phoebe Monahan. You might be able to quickly scoop her up for your back line.
