Game Day AFLW R2 Crows vs Bulldogs Friday 10/02/17 Whitten Oval

Someone posted a twitter pix earlier and looked like they were in a bus station.

Yep thats what I was referring to as well ? But then Perkins just said they had a three hour delay at the airport? Maybe they meant 'road trip' as trip away, not literally a road trip...

 

[fairfooty]

The one thing I've noticed is that we have more players who can kick longer than other teams. Plus we are the only ones I've seen set up wings.

Nikki Shush! Don't give it away! LOL!

 

[NikkiNoo]

Great work! Love the passion.

What's with the band aids behind their ears?

It's for concussion research. It measures g-force.

 

[Archie87]

Loving the enthusiasm and the passion they are showing! That positive vibe would have to be spreading across the club. Sensational stuff!

They sure do a great rendition of the song too

Gotta eat my words here.
Having viewed a fair amount of woman's footy at ammos level I didn't think the standard would be high enough to warrant this AFLW league, preference being given to a second string men's league.
I'm very impressed,and besides the basic disposal skill level,this shits on what I had imagined to quality to be.
The skills will come now the door has been opened. So impressed by the way our girls kept formation and worked for each other for an entire game. Far better a spectacle the watching my Div4 club team, which I never thought I'd say this early on.

Kudos.

Jenny, you was spot on.

While we gave some great players I our best, I don't think we have as much talent overall as most other clubs. It has been the effort and desire that's working for us, absolutely committed.

I agree. The girls seem to get much more reward for effort than in the men's competition, presumably because the skills aren't quite as polished so there are more opportunities to take advantage of a spilled mark or missed kick.

Pace and effort will be key in this comp and we seem to have plenty of both

Social media isn't as excited as AFLW as we are on here, mostly Victorians. Hope we don't win the first flag or that'll probably be the end of AFLW.

We will have breached the salary cap or something I'm sure.

I'm not sure you could say the dogs had better skills than us. They have a few players who are probably better than we've got but we seem to have a very even spread of talent. However what stood out is how much better coached, disciplined, and structured our girls were in both games so far.

We kicked exactly the same score as we did last week (7-6-48). And Bulldogs had the same number of scoring shots as we did, only they kicked 2-11.

Reckon our depth is pretty good, even spread of contributors coupled with some clear talent (The Noff, Phillips, Perkins, Randall, Gibson). It's a great mix and mix that with an amazing culture it's exciting times ahead.

Assume it's just 12 month contracts at this stage for this comp, hopefully we can keep this group together for a while.

Culture and fixed-level contracts will keep them together

Couldn't be a greater contrast at Hindmarsh with the Reds absolute toilet at the moment.

Conceded 3 goals so far in 2 games. Not bad.

We have an awesome defence.
Won thatun in the premiership q. Finished the third much stronger than the bulldogs. Love our hardheaded desire to win the ball. Love the enthusiasm of this team.
