AFLW West Coast Womens Discussion

[Biggie]

Hartill looks athletic but she looked terrible against Franklin, who hasn’t been setting the world on fire herself.

So she should

Hartill has played footy for 5 minutes compared to Franklin

Schilling was taken as a high draft pick as a key defender.
In a year of playing a young team, surely she should play down back and develop.

Another one of Priors genius moves

Chopping out in the ruck for the last 10 minutes against the Hawks while the game was on the line was a personal favourite movie.... Guess Lakay was needing to be rested

Bullas eclipses her 2022 disposal average of 5.5 with 6 touches upon return

Unfortunately a few spuds in the team couldn't get on board and follow her example.

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

I’d like to see 28 players on the field in season 8.

By all means start experimenting with rules. I actually like the lasso rule and teams are penalised for going down the line.

I’d also like to see the rule of having 2 defenders and 2 forwards in each i50. Predicated on having 18 on the field

Of course this will require bigger lists but allow 2 rucks and encourage more talls being both recruited and selected

Charlie Thomas got a Rising Star Nom, our third for the year.

She might be our second best player for the season right now, behind Swanson.

Rowley could well make it 4, her recent form has been super impressive.

Rowley could well make it 4, her recent form has been super impressive.

She goes well again this week v Cats and we can lock it in.

Future is bright

 

[bUCKET__]

Rowley will definitely pick up a nomination before season's end, unless she tires a bit across the season, or oppo teams start putting more time into her. Having her on a wing instead of Bowen feels much better for the team.

Charlie Thomas TOW

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

Now we need to get behind Rowley and Western to make it 5 nominations in a season.

Watch this space

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Is the criteria the same as for the men’s Rising Star? If so, Western’s probably too old to be eligible.

Did Meagan Kiely get suspended for driving the head of Humphrey into the dirt?

This is a classic of the action needing to be punished regardless of the outcome.

Fine only. I agree, that was a shocker.

Completely forgot about Petrevski

She’s got a lot to prove, big chance for her.

Bugger. Looked a very nasty injury, hope she’s in as much comfort as possible right now.

Have loved the pace and pressure she has given us this year.

Horrid news. As her sponsor, she has responded well to her new mentor and her pressure acts and 2 way running have set a new standard at the club

 

[Dark Sharks]

Another game, another year in fact, where if i pitched the question to one of our players

"Ok.... explain to me how you get the ball from one end to the other. You have it in the back pocket... where do you go? What do you do?"

I feel like they'd look at Prior stupidly without any answer.


Can tell intent has lifted, you can see everyone having a crack still, but gee whiz i still wonder if anyone actually knows anything game plan related other than hack kick it or flicking around a hot potato. Need to do more game situational stuff. How to win an actual 2 on 1. How to move the ball properly.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Freo doing a great job of tanking to get the pick of the WA talent in the next draft.

 

[ep2018]

rofl we're going to be their only win this season.
