AFLW AFLW 2023 - Geelong & the greater league

[rocker_oz33]

Just need to pressure the Dees into kicking rather than handball - they're killing us on the spread.

2 ump goals straight in front not helping

 

[cats_09]

Amy looks a touch off the pace tonight

 

[Willo_]

Moloney is so so so good

 

[rocker_oz33]

Throw and HTB.

Play on

 

[winty]

I can see two changes we could make, and we'd pretty much have our best side out there....

In: Scott Kearns
Out: Garing Bragg

Was last week too imo

 

[winty]

Not a bad way to have a break-out game - against the reigning premiers.

 

[cats_09]

I know she's not eligible for the Rising Star due to her age, but coming into this season, Aishling Moloney had less experience than those who are eligible

Damn she's been a good pick up

 

[Willo_]

Gee, some of Meg Mac's disposal can leave a lot to be desired.

Her and Amy Mac are opposites
Meg looks neat, generally shocking
Amy looks horrendous, generally really neat

Bragg in poor ..

 

[rocker_oz33]

Sling tackle ...

Lol these umps

 

[Willo_]

Has Friswell gotten quicker? Or is she just comfortable now with the pace and is backing herself in?

 

[rocker_oz33]

Rakin touched that...
Get some glasses flogs

 

[rocker_oz33]

Soft as fuuuu

 

[winty]

That kick by Paxman was almost as ugly as her mullet...

 

[winty]

Just run 30m without bouncing - nevermind.

 

[rocker_oz33]

Loose defence

Out: Garing Bragg

I know Garing is this season's feel good story coming back after the birth of her first child, and showing that mother's can play top level sport - but not sure we get enough from her

I'm not sure we got enough from her in her last season and wonder if her place in the squad is more about the story rather than necessarily about the player

Could we maybe use her spot in the team for "blooding" a youngster as I'm not sure she's the differences in how our season pans out, but getting 3 or 4 games into a youngster now could help our 2024 season & beyond

 

[winty]

Another brain fart by Meg Mac results in a Dees goal.

 

[Frederico_WA]

Melbourne are a quality team. Wowee.

We're trying hard but their brand of footy is too good. Rebounding cuts through us too easily and our backs aren't sticking any tackles.

Garing has had 6 touches thus far - only 1 was effective.

 

[rocker_oz33]

Forward Lind and mids not on the same page ...forwards standing around ...

 

[cats_09]

Bit of both most likely

When she was drafted there seemed to be a bit of "who is she?", and "was she only drafted due to being a teammate of Prespakis and maybe help reduce the chance of Pres leaving after a season"

Those things no longer get discussed, and she has shown she more than warrants selection in this team on her own merit - so I could see her feeling more comfortable with her place in the team, and now in her third season a better understanding of what's required at this level

 

[Frederico_WA]

She puts in alot of effort and can tackle well. She almost looks surprised when she has the ball in hand and has to dispose of it. I think she'd do OK as a back pocket.
