[Del191229]

Massive test this week.

Yep, don't mind if we lose a close one as long as it goes down to the wire.

 

[Colby Cheer Squad]

A rotating cast of taggers too no less, and she couldn’t be quelled. What a humble gun she is.

One of them being Erin Phillips if you don't mind.

 

[Twinkletoes]

One of them being Erin Phillips if you don't mind.

Yep, it reeked of them thinking “let’s add some muscle and experience to curb her influence at centre bounces” as they watched Jas, Ash and Jenna repeatedly win the pill and flick it around until one of them streamed forward.

One of Garner's many virtues is that she's the best long field kick in the comp; counts for a lot when games are often characterised by a lot of scrimmage play

 

[Wild Bill]

Clearly the best player in the league. Just performs every week.

The contested ball and 15m check side to Gatt…

I can't stop watching it. It's such unbelievably good football. She makes the other players better, completely selfless with perfect vision, understanding, and composure.

Where is it online?

 

[CURVE]

Pressure on the umpires to show some deserved love for Garner, a lot of journalists are making note of her lack of

Where is it online?

About three minutes into the highlights.



While you're at it, you can watch O'Loughlin's GOTY contender and Smith's steal and goal.

Where is it online?

Adding to DEVO's answer, the Instagram video about Gatt in the AFLW thread has the same play from a different angle.

Do the godees tag

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Do the godees tag

Shelley Heath shut down Bri Davey in R1 and I think has gone to Garner before?

 

[Colby Cheer Squad]

GoDees certainly did a number on Jammin.

 

[Horace]

I thinks its time when teams decide to tag Jassy, that we look at having someone to tag the tagger. I have no idea who that might be but its pounds to peanuts that eventually most clubs will try to quell her influence by having a run with player on her. We need to find someone who can help her out, by running with and blocking the tagger, so that Jassy can get off the tag and do what she is immensely good at doing.

We can't afford to go into the finals without someone being used in that role.

 

[The Nostradamus]

She just needs to go deep forward or go to the oppos most dangerous mid to create a 2 on 1 with the tag which means one of our mids are free

 

[SMaturin]

Start her forward or move her forward.

 

[shinboner magic]

How about we don’t handball to her when she has two players right on her.
A few of our players played hot potato and just mage it garners problem , instead of taking it upon themselves to make the play.

 

[Only Forwards]

Start her forward or move her forward.

so she can play more forward?

like Full Forward Forward.

and I know Forwards.

 

[Flawed Genius]

What a horrifying footballer she must be to play against.

 

[sutcliffe's hotel]

Jazzy - 3 votes - Garner.

 

[Mav]

3 times AFLW Coaches Award winner.

What a star.

 

[shinboner magic]

We’re lucky to have her - enjoy her while we can
