They say better the devil you know, but the Lions knew exactly what they were coning up against and it didn’t help. My last #AFLW piece for ABC this year 👇🏼👇🏼

Lions 'threw the kitchen sink' but nothing could halt Roos' perfect season
Creating history by winning consecutive premierships and completing an unbeaten season is just reward for North Melbourne's boundary-pushing AFLW program.

Did anyone else come home from Ikon Park last night with a pocket like this? The confetti cannon was my daughter's favourite bit 😆 What an incredible night it was.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Just so happy for everyone at #NMFC.
It's one thing to be better than everyone else, but quite another to keep putting in the work to prove it every week for two years - and counting! Enjoy the night.
Hard lines, Brisbane. Hurts now, but take pride later.

Absolutely stuns me there's any discussion about North's dominance being "detrimental" to #AFLW footy
Does anyone ask the same thing about Brisbane playing in their 7/10 Grand Finals?
Bullshit. North have embraced W footy and they deserve every bit of this

And neither Sydney team wanted to sign Sheerin and in this article she was described as “too intense” for the Swans. So does too intense mean professional?

Sad news. “Living In The ‘70s” was a massive game changer for Aussie music and Bongo’s guitar was integral to it. Hard for younger people to appreciate just how big the ‘Hooks were. RIP.

Canada’s economic growth beat expectations this quarter.
We’re diversifying our trade, building big, and creating well-paying careers — and we’re getting results.

Pete Hegseth is not the "secretary of war" just because he keeps using the term, any more than the Gulf of Mexico is the Gulf of America or Donald Trump is a great American. Saying so don't make it so.
