Let's hear ya !!

Go Pies!
Well done girls.
Only got to see the last 10 minutes, looking forward to watching the replay

That went the Oppostite I expected.

We where the Team that Ball Use was Good(Finally) and Demons where turning the Ball over like we had done in 1st 3 Games

Great win. I saw the quarter time score and thought "here we go again' but the girls turned it around beautifully.

Well that was a game that turned around in a hurry.It seemed like"Here we go again " and at1/4 time I was ready to switch off, but THEN!!! WHAM. They got the ball and kicked it long with the good players running forward and onto the ball. No backward s hand balling , no sideways kicks. Umpiring was disgrace and for a team to win by this amount and be about 10 frees behind in the count is unbelievable.Any thing Collingwood it would appear.

Good win and good game to watch.

I was ready to change channels at 1/4 time but stuck with it. Glad I did.

Hope did good, could've easily kicked 5 and gave 2 away.

That chick who's captain, she kicks like a bloke. has a beautiful kick on her.

Sitting in the Moama Bowling Club and the game was on. Turnovers didn't cost the women's team and I thought the other team showed better skills but didn't hit the scoreboard. I did laugh when they said they are still a final chance and have only won one game.

Any time Melbourne lose I smile, happy for the girls to get a win, they are building and there is some real talent in that squad.

Couldn't help but think the same thing - even with an allowance for my one-eyed barracking.

Umpiring was fair and balanced to me. Mo worked more up the ground which freed the forward line up when the ball came back on the rebound. Her kicking was better on the assist more than her direct kicking at goal which still needs a lot of work, but at least now she's starting to adjust to the pace of the women's game. Lambert is a good addition to the midfield and D'Arcy and Hutchins add a bit of strength to the side. This weekend's game against Footscray will show where the team is at. I'm not expecting us to win but it should be a good game to watch.
