Lowest score and biggest loss against Port Adelaide and at Alberton Oval
In their first league match against the Power, Melbourne suffered their first loss of the season. They struggled under the pressure of the home side and found themselves well behind before launching a last quarter comeback. A goal to Kate Hore with 90 seconds left cut the gap to less than a goal, but a late snap by Megan Fitzsimon missed and Port held on to win.
Best were Hore, Hanks, and Chaplin.
