AFLW Rnd.10 Euro-Yroke vs Brisbane Sun 1:05

[Mat Mann]

I couldn't be more disappointed with this season's four wins, three of which were over the bottom four teams.
Skills are sub-standard, gameplan, well I have no clue what the actual methodology is to move the ball, Defense has stood strong all year, but that won't win us games

Dal's the obvious focal point but I'm not sure it's as easy a fix as that, but the midfield seriously needs some work, outside of Tyanna and at times Jamiee, it doesn't exist.

on to the game

Well, may as well barrack for the other teams around us now. Slink up the draft order in what seems to be one of the best draft pools. Sounds similar to the blokes. Where are we getting pick 8 from though?

We’re stuck in no man’s land.

One of main problems is the age of the list. Doggies had 1 player over 30. St Kilda had 8. Dogs had 18 players under 26. St Kilda had 12. Dogs had 11 players under 22 and Saints had 4. No wonder the Dogs played with more energy and a more entertaining/ exciting style.

And unfortunately this cant be fixed for a few years because of poor list management decisions last year when some older players were puts on crazy long terms deals when they should never have been. The club has an opportunity to trade/ delist 5 or 6 girls this year who are out of contract who are plus 28 and go to the draft. They have some good young players who just need to be played together for a few seasons and trusted.
It would also be good to see one or two more experienced players to come to the club - but not sure St Kilda would be seen as a “destination” club whilst the same people are running the show.

I’d be happy enough if we were never referred to as Euro-Yroke ever again. Farcical.

THe recruiting of Wardlaw Lambert and Watson has absolutely paid dividends. They're every chance to Trifecta the BnF and without them this season we might have struggled to win a game

Its the next level down thats the problem. Ty Smith is a star but past that too many of our squad have been massively overtaken by their equivalents at other Clubs. GP has been cruelled by injury and you have to think shes gonna struggle now. The likes of Xenos, Vesely., Exon, McDonald etc are OK players but have much better equivalents at better Clubs. Pick 4 on Ella Friend has so far been a bust.
