Tbh we haven’t really seen her at her best for a couple of seasons , signs yesterday , hope she can get it back but over 30 now my expectations aren’t high , still worth a spot in side tho

Think I saw on one of the Tiger socials that it was her first game in 660 days. Last game before Giants game was semi final in 2022. Bit shocked when I saw that. Time flies.

Positive is that we see players in the womens comp get to mid 30's if they can stay injury free and they look after themselves and Tessa is a real pro in that area. Hopefully can stay on the field now.

Lynchy played on Goldsworthy for the most part and kept her in check, very good game

Very underrated. Just goes about her work without much fuss.

She’s hard at it which is a plus

Hmm not playing as well as when a follower but you’re right , marking ability needed in d50 ,,,,I don’t mind laura Mc going forward can clunk a good strong mark , really attacks the contest and is a straight kick despite looking awkward , tbh certainly no lesser a player than greiser

Left sided too Mclelland, might stooge a bodgey def here and there

 

[TigermanM2]

Just for the Greg critics....

6 coaches votes v Giants. Votes from both coaches.

She has a such a positive influence over others. Is calm on field.

 

[Phar Ace]

Thanks for the nice welcome backs.

Had to spend some time to concentrate on health issues.
Big lesson, never let things slide. Get checked. Goes for anything.
Only reason I'm still around.

I hear ya buddy, early detection is early to solution

More valuable, at the moment. That said, Greiser pulls a very good defender to her, and whilst beaten often so far, does allow a few others better air to operate in.

With a couple of games under the belt you’d like to think that she’ll start showing her best

That’s true and I’m starting to think when KB is in the F50 Grieeer gets maybe 15 mtr from the goal line and KB can roam.
That’s probably not that unusual and Wakefield was that Bear in the square type FF as well but she was also good at the mark down the line. Don’t see that from Grieser.

Last 11 games KB and Wakefield played together they kicked
27 goals
Last 11 games Grieser and KB
21 goals

Might not seem alot but games are a little longer now and if you look at Davidson, Wardlaw, Zanker, Hore
They all kicked around 20 by themselves last year. *Wardlaw kicked 19 year before.

We really need to kick more goals.

With greiser strength fair dinkum no excuse not to be taking a heap of marks , should be having plenty of shots at goal ,,,too often is out positioned or a simple mark bounces off her chest . Hopefully a few chances to get amongst it , swans are a good chance for a win wit the unfortunate absence of molloy
