Fascinating game this. Of course all the AFL media is about Brisbane's "redemption" against us. FMD they fall over themselves to pump up whomever we play week in week out, mens or women's ! I hope we stick it to them and earn a home prelim.

Either way we get a second final at a minimum which is going to be great for the development of the team.

Go Tigers !

Rnd 5 had 11 poss with 8 handballs.

10 votes Courtney Wakefield
28 games and has kicked 30.18. 13 goals this season

So…
Bris Top 5. Tiges Top 5
178 games. 183 games
150 votes. 165 votes
28.30 career scoring. 61.53 career scoring.
9 goals this year collectively. 29 goals

I know Wakefield is our FF (13 goals) but for me it shows that this year…the players that are consistently preforming well for us are more dangerous and damaging than they’re talent.

Another thing, two games after us they played Norf at Arden st with their FF Wardlaw. Bris won by 7 points
Norf 3.8 Bris 5.3

Not very convincing.

I reckon we‘ve got a good chance tomorrow.

I think Bris are going to have to play differently than Rnd 5.
I think they’re going to use Dakota Davidson more as a hit up player on the flanks to move the ball forward.
The player we didn’t put any real time into was Belle Dawes and she got 24 poss against us and had a chance to kick the winning goal but the fact is she’s busy and has quick hands and sidesteps quickly but she can’t kick over a jam jar.
It’s the same for their other ball winners.
This season.

If we shorten the ground and stop D.Davidson marking, they’re gonna need alotve kicks to get within range.
 
How come the runners are wearing maroon ? Looks like Brisbane have half a dozen more players on the ground filling up space. How is something so basic to get right, be got so wrong ?? FMD afl
 
Is there no such thing as holding the ball in aflw ? Plenty of prior, try to break a tackle or two and then not dispose of the ball when tackled. No free ?? This happens all through last week's game too.
