THEY SAID IT: "The stuff that's killing us is stuff that, if I'm a half-decent coach, I should be able to fix. I'm confident in the relationship that I've got with these players that they are telling the truth. You can see it in people's eyes, I've been in teams before at the Saints where the coach has lost the players, or the players had lost faith" - Western Bulldogs coach Nathan Burke is confident he can continue in his position despite a club-worst 0-6 start to the season.
PLAYER OF THE ROUND: Adelaide's gun midfielder Ebony Marinoff put on a masterclass in her side's impressive win over Melbourne. Marinoff booted two goals from 27 disposals and laid 13 tackles to steer the Crows to victory in the top-of-the-table clash.
THE MOMENT: Scores were level with only 40 seconds left when Gold Coast captain Tara Bohanna marked the ball just outside the 50m arc. Bohanna took her shot after the siren and kicked a behind, which was enough for the Suns to pip Richmond in a thriller.
TALKING POINT: Is there a new premiership favourite in town? Adelaide marched into enemy territory at Casey Fields to take on reigning premiers Melbourne and left with four points, snapping the Demons' 14-match winning run in the process. The Crows are now the last remaining unbeaten team this season with a 6-0 record.
STATS THAT MATTER: The longest-ever individual player winning and losing streaks ended in round six. Melbourne's Tayla Harris tasted defeat after 16 straight wins as the Demons fell to Adelaide by 10 points. Meanwhile, Sydney's Alana Woodward finally savoured victory after 18 consecutive losses as the Swans posted their first-ever away win with a 15-point triumph over Port Adelaide.
TRIBUNAL WATCH: Collingwood's Selena Karlson and Stacey Livingstone could come under match review officer scrutiny for a high, late hit on Courtney Hodder and dangerous tackle on Sophie Conway respectively.
INJURIES: A. McKay (Carl, ankle), V. Laloifi (Carl, knee), S. Goranova (knee), S. Chiocci (St Kilda, ACL), A. Newman (Syd, concussion), M. MacLachlan (Port, ankle), S. Karlson (Coll, shoulder).
WHAT'S NEXT: First meets last when Adelaide (6-0) host the Bulldogs (0-6) on Friday night. Gold Coast and Brisbane do battle on Saturday night in a derby clash that could go a long way towards determining both sides' finals hopes. The same can be said for Richmond and Essendon, who do battle at Ikon Park. North Melbourne and Melbourne will look to keep the heat on ladder leaders Adelaide when they meet Port Adelaide and West Coast respectively on Sunday.
