Mitchell is very good at making sure our players get noticed (something clarkson was not good at). Mitchell is very aware of how media perception (which is what all aus is) impacts how players get umpired

Aflw covered it up last year (Brisbane player directed at a hawk which caused a fight after the final siren) It's all about image. Hide it for the league that promotes itself on being "inclusive" and come down hard on the one with an image problem. In reality you'd expect a harsher penalty for...

Risk play by the saints. They pay it short term to attract other stars and hope tdk doesnt leave when asked to take a pay cut

Expect Adelaide to to punish him with 1 game and the afl to come out and be all "Adelaide have done our job, we move on"

Always been their Achilles heal. You have to run it through their midfield, then keep it low inside 50 Bombing it long, despite being "quick" they will cut off easily

As i said in the main board thread, she is probably still carrying on from last year. She is the one responsible for the fight post-game (said some things about a hawks player that cannot be repeated - hawks player wouldn't put in formal complaint so it was swept under the carpet). I'd say...

Very similar to the Tam Smith hit on the Geelong player in the AFLW last year. Absolutely no head contact, at best a fraction late. That got 3 weeks and got overturned at appeal. You'd assume this is the same outcome

If you were accused of this in the workplace you'd be stood down pending investigation, and then sacked if proven guilty

Not the traditional pack marker. He doesn't crash packs and take bodies, thats what i was getting at

They were a premiership side because they were one of the first teams, not because they were well run. I have heard plenty of stories from current and former players as to the treatment of their womens players, to the point where they had to organise their own weights sessions away from the...

They really brought it back for today's games, to the point it resembled pre-covid interpretations. I didnt mind the harsher calls early in the round, it opened up the field. Problem is none of the top sides faced each other to see how it actually impacted the play

Just being the flog she is probably? Got put in her place last year by the hawks. More info:She had a few words toward tilly in the qualifying final last year (which set off the post match fight). AFL covered up what she said as it wouldve reflected really badly on a league that promotes...

Ah, missed that

I noticed the jumper today had the test rate logo instead of cotton on

Watson wont be injured. The sports science guys have a lot of data to optimise output and reduce injury risk. He'd probably have been reaching a peak speed that was slower than his usual so they didnt want to risk injury

Injured her hammy. Late out

Sucked in brissie

Looks like we've learned nothing from finals last year Very simple mistakes in a pressure game. Will be amazed if we hold on

In fairness, channel 7 used to pump so many ads into their games, they got busted during hawks vs crows in about 14, they pumped so many in a goal was kicked, then the next ball up we had lost 10 minutes of play (this was a live broadcast, they fast forwarded so it didnt cut into the news)

Holding the ball against brissie player called holding, followed up with holding the ball against Ashmore when it was punched out of her hand with no tackle

Williamson has had several chances to get to the ball or tackle, and she has half stepped and ended up out of it

Playing out like the qualifying final. We are dominating most of the play, whilst Brisbane are taking the sporadic chances they get Dakota Davidson is the Tom Hawkins of the AFLW. Absolute bully who loves to sulk when something doesnt go her way. A flopper of the highest order too

This is playing out like the qualifying final last year. Hawks dominating general play but super wasteful

Stick with 4 1. Lewis is playing the old school chf role which sees him push right up the ground, which opens up the forward line as no opponent is going to let him roam on his own. 2. Calsher is not a traditional tall. Barely touches a pack, instead reads the play like a small. He's also...

It has a 13k capacity

First quarter you could justify the calls, after quarter time they blatantly ignored everything if it went against the crows.

Getting a free kick every tine it goes inside d50

Lock in Adelaide for a grand final birth if the umpiring is anything to go by. The pies were absolutely stitched up

I thought the ground felt cold, and it does seem like my perception is right, hell has frozen over, the collective supporting collingwood

Daicos making a habit of these dives. Commentators wont call it out though
