I watched the replay of the grand final this afternoon on Fox, and afterwards they showed highlights of the AFLW match from Thursday night. Looking at them back to back like that, it was almost like the girls were playing a similar style to what the guys did a couple of days later.

Did you go to the supporter day yesterday?

I'm not sure if there's a clip anywhere, but before the guys were introduced to the crowd they had Hocking on stage and he turned his focus to our AFLW team & reminded fans that we still have a team playing their season & to get behind them

He then spoke about our win on Thursday night, specifically mentioning the second quarter, (paraphrasing this) - "the second quarter is the best quarter we've played in our AFLW history. It's the way we want play, it's the Geelong way"

Would love to get the full clip
 
Tonight's the first time I've really been able to see the Prespakis tackle - they didn't show a replay at the ground on Thursday night. It looks a pretty innocuous incident compared with some of the incidents we see during games

Has there ever been a story on why she left the cats?

Not that I've seen but others may have some inside knowledge as to the situation - she took a break ahead of last season and then asked for a trade; I'd hope that she didn't find it a negative or toxic environment within the club where she felt she had no option but to move

Not sure of her situation outside of football, such as studies & if being Melbourne based worked out better for her sort of thing
 
I wonder with Mia Skinner back and Shelley Scott playing forward whether we'll push Scheer into the middle more to take Prespaskis' place in the centre, or if we'll give Gardiner and Moloney more of a run in there.
