Women's Footy AFLW season 2023 - Season 8

[UncleChipsy]

What do we think is happening with stribbles, seems to fly under the radar

Think they will keep her. I think our young group are fairly safe. Lots of skill but not lots of strength at the moment. We need to draft/ trade stronger and bigger bodes to replace the ones we have had to draft via compromised draft to replace the mature players we lost through the hellscape that was expansion

 

[Bigger]

too easily pushed off the ball, no spatial awareness and terrible skills does not bode well in modern day football.

All worked perfectly well for me.

Sad to see Roxy go.

Promised so much, delivered so little.

How old is Aisling?

Also, why would WC trade for a delisted free agent? (hint: she wasn't).

Will be 28 next season.

McCarthy is a good get, think on paper we might have the better end of the deal.

 

[Bigger]

Hoo Roux.

Another Mick, eh? We're becoming Dirty Turd - the thirtythird county.

 

[Teen Wolf]

Also, why would WC trade for a delisted free agent? (hint: she wasn't).

No argument from me. If Roux wasn't an unrestricted free agent, it means Fremantle offered her a contract, which she declined.

Roxy was not offered a contract with us


Happy for her that she found a suitor, was looking quite bleak for her a few weeks back

 

[freo_leo29]

Always sad to see someone go who embraced the Guernsey (celebrations after goals tugging on it, in multiple derbies)

But she just didn't come on like we all expected, wish her luck in the future

 

[ImperialPurple]

Excited about Aisling! She’s a great get!

Shame Roxy never reached her potential with us. (Secretly hoping she never does now). Hope she has a decent, yet average, career with them. I will always remember her passionate jumper pull when she kicked a goal after a towering mark against them in the very first derby. (She better not pull that stunt against us, but I’m thinking she probably will…)

 

[freo_leo29]

McCarthy is a good pickup though, slightly older than I'd prefer and now we probably have to trade pick 6 for Newton tbh

 

[ImperialPurple]

Is Brazill a free agent? Or is that another trade that needs to get done?

 

[freo_leo29]

It's pretty clear that Roxy didn't really affect the trade value anyway, so she may have been a free agent but just chuck her in the trade and get it all done at once

 

[freo_leo29]

Is Brazill a free agent? Or is that another trade that needs to get done?

I'd assume a trade

 

[footyknut]

I'd assume a trade

Hopefully we can use the compo pick we got for Cuthbertson to get Brazill.

Seconded

Strong and has good skills and fits a need in the midfield. Will displace one of the other Irish mature agers Id suggest

Sad about Roxy ( not as gutted as my daughter will be when i tell her) Never saw her with the off season training groups and always wondered if there are players who just dont fit in with the group which affects their connection with the team and performance ?

Hope she reaches her potential and always has a shocker in Derbies

I agree, but if WC end up getting Georgie Cleaver with that pick then they end up way in front.

 

[mr.11]

Amy Cariss- Brett would be a handy pickup in the draft....elected to go National

 

[ImperialPurple]

Roxy’s parting comments were pure class. Swipe for more pics

 

[rgauci]

Have we got the Western Bulldogs player yet or Ash Brazill?

Not yet.

 

[DragoDelph]

Damn. Looks like Daisy to be head coach at West Coast.

Well that sucks.
