Women's Footy Lions AFLW 2024 (Season 9) Discussion

[BigCat2]

Charlotte Mullins the sole Lions player in the 22under22 squad this year.

Looking at the game just played, there were only 2 players younger than 23, so probably no surprise.

Congrats to Anderson, Conway, Dawes, Koenen, and Smith (Brisbane)!

Saturday night prelim. Good outcome for us I think cos it will be pretty slippery I reckon, and our game style has tended to favour pressure and chaos over skills for most of the season.

Let's hope the rain clears

I was thinking simply about the humidity as much as anything. Anything up over 70% (which it is most nights) tends to turn the ball into a cake of soap I've found.

Weather seems fine, not sure about humidity, according to BoM

Saturday 23 November
Min 20 Max 25
Partly cloudy. Slight chance of a shower. Light winds becoming southeasterly 15 to 25 km/h during the morning.

 

[MSB ROYS]

Beating Adelaide and then North (around 5% chance it will be Port IMO) would be a huge achievement. I worry about some lapses in games and an ability to convert goals into points, but we just have to get it right for two games, which we know they can do.

 

[dlanod]

As long as we beat Adelaide... A GF with either us winning or NM getting a well deserved first long after they pillaged us is acceptable. Having Adelaide starting to re-separate the gap for best aflw club all time is not acceptable.

FYI members tickets just went on sale. The Lions email came through at the same time the tickets opened up lol.

Got some great seats in section GA seat 0002.

Mullins is in her first 22under22 Team

 

[The Flying Belgian]

Is it pedantic to point out that AFLW sides only have 21 players?

 

[Nathan Barley]

Is it pedantic to point out that AFLW sides only have 21 players?

So the team would be immediately disqualified

Mens teams have 23

As long as the opposition captain called for a count. Given there is no opposition... play on

Nah you're good anyway, pretty sure you're fine to play short-handed. I still remember GWS kicking a goal or two on Carlton with only 16 players on the field a few years back.

Four Lions rewarded with selection in 2024 All-Australian Team

Ally Anderson [3rd], Sophie Conway [2nd], Belle Dawes [1st] & Taylor Smith [1st] named in the AA team.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Massive game by Sophie Conway in round 4 sees her pick up 3, 2 AND 1 vote placings from the umpires. Well done Sophie!

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

" The number of votes cast for Sophie merely reflects the strength of Sophie's game on the day," remarked AFLW umpire B.L. Member.

In other news, Adelaide Crows fans have stormed the AFL Bastille in protest this evening

 

[Lazza16]

Can't believe these sectors overlooked Bree for AA honours. Harris 2. Will they ever learn .

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Oh DUH there were two Lions games in R4
