Game Day AFLW - Round 1 Carlton v Gold Coast at Ikon Park

[Elmer_Hauser]

Sorry mods, didn't see a gameday thread so I thought I would start one for anyone else who is watching our season opener !

Bit of a scrappy start but yay, Vescio gets the first goal of the game and our season.

Come on You Blues

Pressure been very good

 

[Coona Blues]

Nice start ladies. DV first goal of the season

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Pretty good crowd at Ikon Park too.

Feel like we should be another goal or two up, but at least we haven't conceded yet. Our chasing and tackling been great.

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Woo Hoo !

Welcome to Carlton Marianna Anthony !!

 

[Jimmae]

Very physical, decent speed, endurance is lacking but if they want to keep the intensity at this level it will build.

Not a fan of the way we're structured so far, but we're winning.

 

[jooce8891]

tackling has been immense

 

[GalaxyBlue]

Love the tackle pressure.

Also liking what I’m seeing from Anthony so far!

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Rowbottom is a major problem for us. Really need to curtail her influence in the 2nd half.

Great effort and goal Darcy. Go Blues

Nice stuff

Vescio is simply ridiculous

Best player in the league for my money !

Daughter of the Vet (Mckay) is really carving up the Suns up with little fuss, but great efficiency ! She is a gem

 

[carlton_99]

great qtr

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Well, it turns out all that pre season training at Camp Curnow has done wonders for our AFLW players

 

[norway blue]

Our smothering. Great stuff.

Vescio x 3

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Oh bloody hell. Not again

 

[Jimmae]

Shut the game down too early, need to build it out by hand if they can't kick 35+.

Scoring end

 

[norway blue]

Oh. Jeepers no

Crazy call from the umpire, go back to the VAFA 2nds if you can't handle the pace

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Oh come on umpire ? Seriously. SMH

 

[Coona Blues]

Utter garbage umpire
