Take the win!!

Scrappy game, some poor decision making i think because of the heat. Tough win, absolutely strange umpiring. But a well fought out win, winning ugly is still wining.

Fleming is an absolute ripper, love the way she goes about it

 

[The hands of stone]

It's nice to roll sides but we know we can win a grind and hang on too .

God I love Wales. The amount of times she has just sat that kick behind play and take an intercept mark both tonight and this season has been fantastic and then her ball use is extremely good for a tall.

The fact that Adelaide play North tonight in Adelaide means we either stay in top or secure the top two.

 

[Aristarchus]

Rough game to watch in second half but great to slug out a win against a Melbourne side that played like this against Adelaide and got the win, they are no slouches even with Hore and Paxman out.

Can't quite believe we've managed to lock in top 4. Never would have expected it when we transisitioned our roster during draft time but we've stood tall against most of our opponents.

Finals will bring who knows what, but at least having two games is going to be great experience and another step to test their development.

Next week will be a bonus final against another side of our own calibre, prefect preparation. Not high stakes so won't be the same pressure-wise but a win and we guarantee top 2 and a 'home' final. Plenty to play for.

I feel with the comments this week that the Girls are well aware of the McLelland trophy payday if they win against Richmond, and so will be feeling the pressure internally a bit, regardless of finals thereafter.

Umps reall

Probably a good thing
Given Richmond's position, this is almost a grand final for us

Adelaide can’t catch us now. Just as well, don’t want to see a QF at one of those Mickey Mouse’s ‘non ovals’

Got to beat Richmond (no easy feat at punt road), but we do and we will finish top 2
