Big challenge for the girls in the Darwin heat and against a good Dees midfield.

Melbourne currently 3rd on the ladder, coming of a 5 point loss to Freo.

Return of Sara D'Arcy gives another forward option, just have to get the ball down there often enough. Interesting to see Meg Hutchins named as a forward as I think her experience would be better in the back line, assume she may swing back if needed.

And for those complaining about few goals in AFLW, last night Bulldogs defeated Blues by 73 points. Brooke Lochland kicked 7.3 for the game.

Storms have knocked out my TV reception. Cannot watch the game.

Please feel free to commentate the action. I'll put progress scores in.

37 degrees at TP. Breaks will be longer than usual and ice vests will be used.

No score after 5 minutes.

yeah, I'm having a look.

Skills have picked up and our midfield has been doing well.

Very Mo conscious up forward which doesn't work. She plays like a key forward but isn't big enough at this level. She tried hard but the umpires clearly aren't fans, she was stiff a couple of times.

Unfortunately, it looks like after the initial unrewarded effort, they're going to get run over.
