[Aristarchus]

When the fixtures came out I had this as a scheduled loss against a decent finals side. Now, with our play and form rapidly improving, Freo have key outs and looking vulnerable, it's a lot closer than originally thought.

I'll still go into it without expectations, and just hope to avoid injuries but really looking forward to this game now. This and Richmond game will be like finals preview.

 

[grumbleguts]

Slow very early start, but then we have asserted ourselves.

 

[heh]

Defence held up early while under pump

 

[jenniferHAWKinS]

Anyone have any idea what happened to Eardley I think?

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Anyone have any idea what happened to Eardley I think?

Don't think she has diabetes (had a girl playing against us this year who collapsed and it was diabetes related)

Could be heatstroke

Could also have been punched behind play (lack of cameras we will never know)

 

[Spanish Sahara]

Anyone have any idea what happened to Eardley I think?

Looked like a big collision. Hit the deck immediately


Geez Fleming is going to be a serious footballer.

Can definitely see the difference in the way in which our younger players move/disposal etc after coming through the development pathways compared to the older players.
Standard of football is only going to continue to rise.

Our third goal was fantastic piece of team play

 

[heh]

Hope Erdleys OK

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Our injuries are starting to mount up

 

[Mitchell Madness]

After the delay hawks have stopped.
I don't think the time keeper saw the time off signal for the delay, or did the fox time keeper forget to restart (only 20 seconds off the clock after the game restarted)

 

[Davo-27]

Good 1st quarter, 3 goals to 1, Eardley got bumped and seems like a sore neck for her on landing with the ground?

Goals to Bodey, Fleming and West

1/4 Time - injuries to Stratton (ankle) Eardley (neck?) Stone (ankle, but played on)
Frem 1.2 8
Haw 3.0 18

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Looks like we've learnt from the wind last week. Keeping kicks against the wind low

 

[Davo-27]

Locke got a trip and free kick In the goal square for a goal

Frem 1.2 8
Haw 4.0 24

 

[Davo-27]

Quick snap off the ground for a goal to Frem

Frem 2.2 14
Haw 4.0 24

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Defence looking susceptible against the high ball the last couple of games

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Freo doing the Geelong 2007-11 of just grabbing every ball that goes out and deciding its their free

 

[Davo-27]

They just reported a neck injury to Eardley, but she seems OK and going to hospital.

 

[Spanish Sahara]

Great chase from Vukic.

Disappointing miss from Aine

 

[Mitchell Madness]

They just reported a neck injury to Eardley, but she seems OK and going to hospital.

How do you get a neck injury when you aren't in play?

 

[Mitchell Madness]

And the commentators showing their bias now. Still not as bad as kelli and the other one vs geelong

 

[Davo-27]

How do you get a neck injury when you aren't in play?

It happened 2-3 minutes before they attended her, she was in play when she got bumped

 

[Spanish Sahara]

Richardson and Kemp are both good intercept marks.

Feel like we lack another key back?

Locke has got to good spots but hasn’t been clean at all.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

It happened 2-3 minutes before they attended her, she was in play when she got bumped

Ah, so definite suspension? I mean the MRO gave tam 3 for a perfect bump where whiplash caused concussion. And here you have an ACTUAL injury

 

[Davo-27]

Half Time

Frem 2.2 14
Haw 4.2 26

Injuries - Stratton(Ankle), Stone(Ankle), Eardley(Neck off to hospital)

 

[grumbleguts]

Anyone have any idea what happened to Eardley I think?

Front on contact with her neck.
