Dan Lowther on… Georgie Presparkis

She pulled up sore post game but the last three or four days the recovery has gone really well so we're confident that she'll play and have a significant role as she has for the majority of the season. 

I think the nature of her injury it was about time and rest to give it time to heal and settle down. It was just a rolled ankle so she should be fine come Saturday. 

Dan Lowther on… North Melbourne

This isn't North Melbourne's first finals campaign, they've been around the mark for a number of years and they've got players that have played multiple finals compared to our players who are just starting their journey. No doubt they'll be able to ride the highs and lows of that first five minutes of a final which is high intensity and high contest. 

I have no doubt that our players can match North Melbourne in that space, I think we've shown all year that we're a good contested team, but it'll be around decision making and that efficiency with the football once you've done all the hard work.

I'm expecting a hard and tough game until something breaks.

We expected to improve. To get as far as we have I put down to a number of factors: change of method and style, adding the players that complement the direction we're trying to go in terms of our ball movement, and our philosophy as a team has helped speed up that improvement. 

My expectation was to win more games than last season, and we've exceeded that but my expectation is now we win a final and it's in our hands to do that. 

Dan Lowther on… All Of Club Support

I'm just excited to play post season. To come into work here after the last four or five weeks of what this club has experienced with the men's program, it's not hard to get swept up in the excitement of finals football. 

The staff have been brilliant, everyone is extremely excited and supportive of our AFLW program, just as much as they were for the men's, there's no change there, so you feel good about that and that flows onto the group as well and the way they feel about playing and preparing for an important
