AFLW 2024 AFLW season - Geelong & the greater league...

[patience]

Bowen showed great persistence there.

Poo.

It's amazing how much distance Moloney can get on one of those snaps over the shoulder she does.

 

[cats_09]

I'm definitely a bigger fan of JCG around the ball compared with D. Moloney

There's no doubt that Moloney has the higher ceiling, but not sure she necessarily fully understands her game or role in the team

Watching JCG, she often keeps things fairly simple - see ball, attack the ball or the opposition, take the first option with ball in hand and don't over complicate things

And when the opposition are putting time into the likes of Morrison & Pres, JCG can take advantage of it

 

[cats_09]

We've been good today at not giving up easy clearances from stoppages in the defensive 50

 

[cats_09]

Late in quarters, Parry starts about two steps from the defensive edge of the centre square and as soon as the ball is bounced she runs as a spare into defence and stays a kick behind the ball

Gunjaca winded

Kennedy with 481m gained. Next best on the ground is Crockett-Grills with 321m.

 

[Gunf]

Missed the first 3/4s nice to see the girls playing well

 

[cats_09]

Kennedy with 481m gained. Next best on the ground is Crockett-Grills with 321m.

Brisbane have started reading her long kicks after a behind better though - they're getting someone deeper to the contest than we are

Can't leave them alone in those contests

 

[cats_09]

How many times have they dropped the ball cold when tackled?

 

[cats_09]

Love this song

 

[winty]

Said it before and I'll say it again - Aishling Moloney is a cheat code.

 

[patience]

GOTD

 

[winty]

How many times have they dropped the ball cold when tackled?

About 157 at my count - may have missed one or two though.

 

[Gunf]

Said it before and I'll say it again - Aishling Moloney is a cheat code.

I said it last week we need to clone her a few times so we have a FF a CHF and a roaming mid and even maybe a ruck

 

[winty]

Nice tap out there by Kennedy - just enough to get the ball free of the pack and allow us to clear the defensive 50.

 

[cats_09]

We're starting to look a little tired with the ball pinging back & forth this quarter

Need to get our hands on it and control possession for a bit

 

[Gunf]

We really need to get better support forward for Aishling

 

[AnUltimateRessie]

We really need to get better support forward for Aishling

we do, she just has a sore toe or something

 

[Gunf]

we do, she just has a sore toe or something

Oh i know but another 1 or 2 would be nice

 

[cats_09]

Both Parry & Kennedy playing as spares a kick behind the ball for these last few minutes

 

[AnUltimateRessie]

Oh i know but another 1 or 2 would be nice

pretty difficult with the depth of talent in the AFLW. Though, I've thought Scott and Bowen have been okay down there today.

 

[Kitcat]

Nice win
