Thanks for joining us tonight. Will the Dogs go all the way and emulate their male counterparts?
It should be a fascinating season. These girls will be tough to beat.
I’m expecting the Dockers to respond strongly though. They’ll be a tough side to beat at home.
Go footy.

FULL TIME AT WHITTEN OVAL
Western Bulldogs 6.8.44 def Fremantle 1.6.12
A wasteful Western Bulldogs side won regardless in a dominant display. They led at every change and kept the Dockers goalless in the final three quarters.
Kearney, Brennan and Lochland were all outstanding for the winning side.
Woof! The Daughters of the West win at home by 32 in front of 10,100. FT: @BulldogsW 6.8 (44) defeat @freodockers 1.6 (12) #AFLWDogsFreo pic.twitter.com/dGCmmbZ9j1— AFL Women's (@aflwomens) February 4, 2017

BRENNAN KICKS HER SECOND
The Dogs are well and truly home now.

Ebony Antonio hip and shoulders Jess Gardner and gets her high! Gardner stays down for a while, and on the replay it looks as if Antonio has left the ground to make contact.
She could be in trouble.

Brennan slowing the tempo down for the Western Bulldogs. The tall forward has covered a lot ground tonight, with 13 touches.

Jaimee Lambert snaps a beauty to put the Dogs back in the lead. A cool sidestep, dropped it onto her right boot, straight over the goal umpire’s hat. WB 2.0.12 lead Freo 1.0.6

Hey Roarers! Welcome to tonight’s coverage of the Bulldogs and the Demons.
It’s going to be a cracking match for the two ‘original’ AFLW sides.
Who do you think will win tonight? Will the absence of Brennan be too much for the Doggies?
