AFLW North Melbourne Football Club AFLW - Season 2024

[Pravda Roo]

Should of really given the skipper a game off in that stretch - was likely to happen to one of the older players in the league

No need to be critical mate, they know what they are doing.

Yes we should have. The positives would have outweighed any negatives

Gives Jas a game as Captain, gives the team a look at what life is like after Kearney. She gets some rest to refresh for the rest of the year and finals.

And I think Kearney has been a little bit below her best since last years final series and made some very uncharacteristic mistakes.

She’s still got the smarts but I think the body is slowing down a bit.

And in my opinion when Kearney does retire the prime candidate to take her spot is one Jas Garner, if our midfield has evolved enough that she is surplus and allows her to play behind the ball, the way it did for Kearney

Probably extends her career a bit as well.

Mind boggling they didn’t rest her for at least one game. The Wednesday night fixture made the most sense

 

[The Nostradamus]

I’d be giving one of the rucks a rest this week

Bulldogs second ruck borg has gone down with a knee injury

Bring in McGrath with one of king/Rennie vs Edmonds
