Women's Footy Round 11, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Melbourne

[Tricky Dicky]

Gutsy win.
Dawes is seriously hard at it.

 

[Elixuh]

Postlethwaite was magnificent tonight.

 

[dlanod]

Mullins has really gone to another level with time on the ball.

Clearly it was Grider's week to stand up in backline. Definitely feels like they rotate through back there.

 

[Mayestro]

So with those results it looks like that with likely wins next week to Melbourne and ourselves and a probable loss for Hawthorn against North we should finish third and play Melbourne in Melbourne in the first week, with North playing Hawthorn.

 

[AFLQLD]

Dawes just relentless. Hodder and her tackled Demons out of the game. Defenders were resilient without Koenen.

Anderson and Conway kept us moving forward. I thought Orla and Mullins ran themselves into the ground, really mature roles by them. Orla starting to understand the wing role in all its complexity.

Kicking could have been better of course but Melbourne is a genuine contender so getting over the top of them was a huge win!

 

[Mr Ripper]

Another gritty win despite our extraordinary ability to turn almost-certain goals into misses.

Thought Sophie really started to click late in last week’s outing and carried on with that tonight. One of her best games.

Match was played at a cracking pace; amazing what just having the threat of being penalised for holding the ball can do to a player’s willingness to keep the agate in motion. Enjoyed it.

 

[Lazza16]

Great win ladies. Amazing the difference in composure in the 2nd half.

 

[dlanod]

Crazy amount of holding off the ball though. Painful.

 

[Sherrinator]

Crazy amount of holding the ball not called. Adds to our inaccuracy.

 

[The Flying Belgian]

Davison really develping down back.

 

[Elixuh]

I thought Dakota’s pressure and tackling was fantastic last night. A few pivotal moments defensively.
