Game Day AFLW Round 6 (a) : vs Gold Coast Home Kinetic, Wed. 2/10 5:15pm

Great game plan and commitment by the Suns. They didn't allow the Hawks anything today.

Suns seemed to be first to the ball often and their talls, back and forward were impressive.
I'm sure this will be another good learning experience, and it comes with a hard fought win.
Congrats girls.

Don't know what it looked like on TV. In person it was obvious GC came with a plan to scrag, slap, punch, and make it an absolute slogfest.

West almost pushed over the edge in the last due to their tactics.

Thought it was actually a good win as a result. We have not been forced to play ugly footy this year

Websters press alluded to the conditions both natural and pressure from Gold Coast, scrappy and fumblingly but loved the hardness of our girls at the contest. Could not buy a kind bounce or a mark due to wind and pressure. Take the 4 points and move on. Sounds like a good bloke with a wise head on his shoulders. Well liked by all accounts.

What do we think the number of wins needed to make finals will be? Be huge if we can make finals in both comps!

Quite possibly the worst game they've played this season? Adelaide at least they showed late fight after being outclassed. This was a pure scrap. They held Bates well and that 2Q was all Hawks yet only 1 goal so credit to GCS gameplan, definitely not your normal bottom side.

Hawks got the win which was important and getting to 5 wins already is so important so congrats to them.

Are all games at "home", going to be like Carlton and this game? Being so wind affected will get old fast once novelty wears off.

Carlton game we kicked 10 goals and won by 7 goals...

Last night was GC implementing a gameplan to avoid a blow out

need to add the Suns to that list now

Its pretty one sided imo. 9 goals to 4 at each end vs Carlton. 5 vs 2 against GCS

They didn't kick a goal with the breeze at all. Actually interesting stat is we both kicked same score with the breeze if my working out is correct (2.9 vs 3.3).

Hold on, why are we playing 2 games this round?! Just played GC and apparently have a game against Freo to come.

The AFL gave the AFLW 11 games this season, but they were to be played within 10 weeks. This is why the club will have played 4 games in 15 days. Peak AFL catering for the needs of the players and fans.

So they are saying the females can handle recovery better than the males? Nice to make it worse for the travelling team though

Yes mate, ridiculous . Only just noticed the girls are on again today .....away in Freo on a very short break.
Would be a huge result if they can win imo .
