AFLW Port Adelaide vs Carlton - Round 5 v2 @ Alberton

[Ford Fairlane]

Fantastic game. This was the third in a row of a really tough run of games and they ran it out beautifully.

Scrappy game but a win is a win. Need to take a few more wins like that this season to build for the future.

Moloney deserved that, been good today.

Piper Window! Yes! Gary will be smiling.

Oh the irony

 

[Marmozet]

We won!!!!!! YEAH THE FCUKING GIRLS!!!!!!!

 

[RossFC]

What a last quarter!! Well done!

Scholz really needs a good teacher.

Lacking in the men's for a decade. I reckon one of the attributes of a good senior coach is to be able to teach in good habits and teach out the bad.

Haven’t been able to watch many games this year but the thing that stood out as an improvement was the pressure and tackling. Very impressive

Thought Saint ended up having a better game than Houghton. Robbed of a goal with the touched call too

Nice to watch when they play like that.

We could've easily gone into our shells after being shell shocked by their first 5 min of pressure. In fact the men often do. However not only did they match it, but they went beyond and really rose above it.

A really solid 4 quarter defensive effort where we controlled the game. They got 3 goals, 2 of which were from ridiculous umpiring decisions. So to hold them to 1 legitimate goal is huge.

Lots of great performances and a lot of players finding form and lifting.

Brooksby and Houghton clearly our best, but lots of other contributors.

The defenders should get a lot of credit too, especially O'Dea. They were really great today.

The biggest problem with AFLW, is that we have away games and games with SANFL umpires.

Not sure what is actually worse.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Who was the bald umpire? He looked familiar in the sense that they all look like the undead to me.
