AFLW Yartapuulti vs GWS - Round 10 @ Alberton

[TazD]

I was today years old when I found out Beta Ken and Alpha Arnell isn't the same person.

 

[Jojay]

Finish ain't bad either, Hodges would be proud.

Haha that's what came to mind. Hodges against the deadlegs in a prelim at footy park back in the day

 

[Us against the rest]

That was one of the poorest umpiring displays I have seen and guess which team was on the rough end.

 

[JimmyBC]

IT'S COMING HOME!!

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Need Gemma to hold a couple of marks

Or just one

 

[VineValerian]

Well done girls

Can teach our male players and dodo coach a few tricks

 

[Expat power]

Never been a big fan of aflw but that was an awesome ending, first time I’ve actually got excited watching it.

The girls have got better and better each week - it feel old school Port at Alberton (just with more rainbows and colour).

 

[Expat power]

I knew we'd come back. The girls have played like this for the past 6 weeks. To win without the major clearance winner and the star ruck was big. First home final - fantastic. Great win.

That Houghton kick will be so iconic. The big Matilda mark, that goal. Those are the sorts of moments that help in building the sport.

To kick that goal, from on her distance, right in front of the crowd (main stand), to win the game and win the right to host a final was epic. Great stuff.

Fingers crossed for another miracle next week. Winning a final against a top echelon side like Richmond will be hard, but at home,.you just never know. Let's hope that we get an injection of a few players for next week.

 

[Portwon]

Bloody good win.

Deep down it started stirring the passion again.

Lamb massive in the last. Gemma clutch.

You find out a lot about players in that type of win.

Well played.

That was Scott Hodges 1996 PF vs Norwood like

We already had finals in the bag and rested Scholz and Dowrick. We came into this game thinking it would be a walk in the park against 16th at home.

The girls would have learned a very valuable football lesson today.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

I missed the first quarter and at three quarter time I was a bit disappointed with Saint and Houghton not having much of an impact in those 2 quarters I watched.

But they delivered when it mattered. Didnt think we could win when we got 17 pts down. That is a big margin to make up in a W game in a quarter of footy.

[RossFC]

What a bloody win!

 

[davesnothere]

The Goddess Gemma must be worshipped.

 

[raptalia]

Euphoria aside that was a good win given the circumstance but Matilda Scholz means a lot to this side and without her it was a struggle against the 16th side at home.

Making the eight is a lot more than I thought the girls would achieve in 2024 and win or lose it will be an experience on which to build.

It is at home and Scholz will hopefully be back. Good luck girls.

The forward line was generally poor today. Our ability to capitalise on a few key moments and opportunities saved us, because apart from those moments, we were generally quite poor.

[Marmozet]

How eerily similar were both the womens and mens games this year when they played in the home indigenous guernsey?

 

[Marmozet]

Watch everyone moan about this one decision now while having NFI about all the other ones that went against us all day

 

[Portmagpies36]

Great to have that result in front of such a big crowd

**** me Houghton still had to take the mark, still had to kick a clutch goal under pressure.

 

[Marmozet]

Justine is all of us right now
