Episode Synopsis

It’s W GF week and we are buzzing! But first wedding chat, Jeremy Cameron’s entrance at Toby Greene’s wedding is a must see. We break down a huge prelim weekend, starting with North v Melbourne. Check out the tussle between former team mates Eden Zanker and Libby Birch, Taylah Harris’ speckie and Blaithin Bogue’s goals. Brisbane had a dominant win over Carlton but the Blues’ had the vibes coming into this game. Check out their business as usual training entrance and their Veronicas shout-out here. Brisbane brought the energy post game, we loved coach Craig Starcevich and Belle Dawes’ celebratory chest bump. And yes, it’s North vs Brisbane in the Grand Final for the 3rd straight year. We also unpack all the draft headlines. Check out the big-sibling energy from the Duursmas here and pics of Willem’s dance career here. We wrap some retirements, resignations and relocations. Finally, we discuss Sky Sports’ misstep with its female-focused TikTok account with recommended reading from Lauren Beckman (Missing Perspectives) and Bridget McArthur (ABC). This week, Mon shares this TikTok from Port Adelaide, while Marielle shares this TikTok from afl play. This week’s sources come from:​Kanga classic Roos break Demons hearts in thriller to book GF spot by Sarah Black for afl.com.au ​aflwomens instagram post of North vs Melbourne Time in Front ​‘You babes are Untouchable’: Carlton embraced an anthem.
