For completions sake.

Vescio finished with 7 disposals.
Only possession after half time was another kick in.

3 turnovers, 1 clanger (probably holding the ball free)
Still 100% disposal efficiency.  ::)

Amazing turnaround from last year to this year. Well done to the ladies, onwards and upwards.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Now that was an inappropriate hijacking of the welcome to country!

Can't understand why the media hasn't picked up on it. .Whether you support WtC or not, that was simply a 3 minute political announcement, nothing more nothing less. Totally inappropriate!

For those who may have missed it, Ms Bonner launched into a long, impassioned and prepared speech pleading for funding to address an Indigenous welfare issue.

While she may have been making a heartfelt plea, her naivety in thinking that she could hijack the welcome to country may well result in more harm than good.

A seasoned activist would have read the room and stuck to the welcome.

Disappointing result but Bucky and the girls should be proud of the improvement we've shown this season.

We got absolutely smashed in the midfield with only Finn and Guerin playing anywhere near their best.  When your strength is taken away so brutally, it's no wonder that our forwards didn't get their usual opportunities and our defence was under enormous pressure.

Hopefully, we'll learn from that and do better next season.

Despite best efforts, we're not quite there yet. Lions are a successful top of the table hardened outfit. I hope they give NM a good conest.

Great effort playing in the PF following an outstanding season. This team are developing well together and having fun. Much upside 👏🏼

Looking forward to 2026.

Coming together is the beginning.
Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success.

Didn't see a second of the game.  But the women played some very compelling and infectious footy towards the end of the season that was quite enjoyable to watch - team spirit was also great.

They've done the jumper proud this season which is all we can ask for.  Ive seen them play at times and im not an expert on womens footy, but really liked Fitzpatrick and what she did this season.

You never can tell what the coaches will think, but she'd have to be top 5 in the B+F with a sneaky chance to win it.
Depends how well Hill, McKay poll after missing a few games, sherar should do ok playing them all.
How important they see the ruck duo of Good/Harrington
How much they rate Cordners effrots down back.

Throw in forwards Sophie, and maybe Bohanna and Poppy for a great back half

Thats about how i'd rate the top 10, in random order.
Finn a smokey to get in there as well.
