AFLW North Melbourne Football Club AFLW - Season 2024

[The Nostradamus]

“Any club can place a bid on a father-daughter or northern academy player, with the "home" club required to match the bidding with their own pick, within 18 selections of the nomination, should they wish to retain the player.”

The Brisbane game won’t move due to the cricket being on apparently.

I heard their coach interviewed yesterday. She acknowledged North have been the clear standout team this season and appear to have every base covered positionally.

When asked if she’d reviewed the game at Western Oval from earlier in the year, for pointers leading up to next weekend, she said “absolutely, thoroughly”.

She reminded the interviewer that we smashed them and scored heavily in the first half, but especially the first quarter, and then the rain came and they changed up their matchups and made a real game of it.

She said the matchups this week will mirror the second half of that game, not the start, and she knows it’s a mountain they’ll need to climb if they’re to win.

Way to give up the game plan. Hopefully Crocks has seen this and planned accordingly. I know it was probably the weather but the second half of that game was not great.

The "real game of it" that they made was a slogfest in which they kicked a single goal. Bit of revisionism there.

And the match was done n dusted

Plus we were in the middle of 4-5 games in 20 days

My immediate thought as well. I presume it was her round about way of saying they found a way to be competitive rather than the early witches hats impression they began with.

We looked spent.
