AFLW 2024 - Round 9 - Indigenous Round - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Latest version of my team had her at R1 with $0 remaining. It was perfect. Now ruined by the MRO. Can't even switch to her sister.Just copped a 1 game ban.
10% of the season gone.
They should consider half game bans.
Looks good. I reckon keep an eye on Kelly as they may still use Seymour in ruck
She's good value and 43 hitouts is enormous, but she was up against a ruckless Sydney without Morphett and Hamilton.
The value rucks are a bit thin too, the only ones you could really pick are Allan, maybe Kelly with McKinnon out and Bella, but she hasn't been a fantastic scorer.
Goody played on the wing, but was a ball magnet and still able to take marks despite her short stature. She looked AFLW ready. I'd risk it with M5. Can't be any worse than the D3/D4/D5/M3/M4/M5s that we'll be fielding.
Yeah good point.
That's fair. She's probably not getting anywhere near that many hitouts most weeks. She is at least one of the better around the ground rucks, though, and she's probably going to improve on last year's 65 average. After thinking more about it, it's unlikely she end up in my team this year with the suspension.
Did anyone watch the GWS game? Pauga didn't rate a mention on either the AFL website or the GWS website. She didn't look like she was in the first roation of mids in the little bit of their game I got to watch. I'm extremely suspicious of her, Tripodi and Beruldsen, but I probably need two or more players like that, given my current structure. Very concerned I'm going to wind up with two 30-point small forwards who generate no cash.
Yeah she’s there in the team until someone else pops up but I don’t think we’ll have a choice on who we run at F5, it’ll have to be a cheapie, hence why I’ve gone both Toogood and Hore for some FWD integrity.
Anderson was rested. Just wonder if she is carrying an injury or something. Has the early double game bye though.
Yeah ill keep an eye on it and switch if needed
I've got Beruldsen in there right now, because she's cheaper and at least I know she got some CBAs. I wouldn't be surprised if Sydney tightened up their rotations for the real stuff, though.
Go with your gut, because you're probably right.
Sure why not, im keen.
invite sent ...
This is probably what's going to get Pauga into the F5 spot in my team. It just feels like there's less risk in starting her, given the ownership numbers, than not.
Our whole side this season is all upside down. Eva is going forward permanently, Pease is down back and took every kick in bar one in the praccy (which will hugely effect anyone with Evans), Issy off HB, unknown where/if Dalton will play (no vflw or matchsim/prac), O'Dowd was used as primary ruck over Davies (with a huge presence around the ball, would have goaled had she remembered to bounce the ball in typical Irish fashion), it's a real mixed bag where scoring could come from anywhere.
That seems to be who Bernasconi is. Last year it was Beeson forward, McCormick back, Barr in the middle, Lister as a tagger and Zreika as a tagger when that didn't work. There was very little consistency week-to-week. My memory is that the Giants used the most players at centre bounces last year. Some of that's injuries, some of that's a developing side, but you also get the impression that Cam just likes to tinker.
Well, I appreciate the answers you've been able to give. Even if I had been able to catch the stream I wouldn't have picked up all that you've shared.
