What a great win, that's 6 wins in a row! To come back from 4 goals, wow and we outscored them by 6 goals, terrific effort.
Conti, McKenzie, Hosking and Egan all did very well. Seymour has very good hands as does Wakefield.

Wakefield kicking 4 goals was the match-winner.
The positive I think that's the first come from behind win we've had this season. Smashed completely in the first qtr. Out pressured. Didn't have the ball in our fwd half for the qtr. We couldn't mark it. hit a target by hand or by foot. Mon's turnover kicks :mad:

Brennan & Hosko can play footy, so a good INs. Courtney Love !!! What a player. Marks, goals, crashes packs. The forward line is good.

I don't know their team but I thought they'd been good for a while. I don't know if they've lost players.

I yeah I think the expansion sides raided them a bit so not quite the side they used to be. That was a season defining game for them though so no surprise they came out firing. They will miss finals now.

Great win that as blues threw everything at us but the kitchen sink, true test of our mettle. How good to watch some of these passages of play sheerin to ellie to Reid to cw, stirring stuff ,
. Moncon has gone to another level this year , a dead set superstar , no one in the comp near her . Pleased to see Reid improving her game to look more like a senior player , she’s really contributing now
keep up the good work girls , let’s make the finals
 
Mckenzies play with 2 mins to go on the wing to win the ball when we looked in trouble then hit Brennan at 50 was immence.

Stella had atleast 3 goal assists tonight, uses it really well, if she keeps improving fitness will be a great mid/forward.

The start was horrific, need to cut out the handball game when we are under the pump like that.
Ellie mc has pure skill and stands out like the proverbial in W there’s little she can’t do , plays thru the Centre of the ground and links up very well
 
whatb do we do when poppy kelly comes back in does she come back in ??
gabbie has been unbelievable in the ruck
its alsmost as though she has grabbed it with both hands
intersting decision for match commitee
Kelly would come in for woods ,, McDonald or jaques dropped too
 
I agree with that, the win over Brisbane was pretty special, but it was a grind. This game had a huge level of skill above what we have experience before.

Gabby Seymour - some of those contested marks. Contoi was awesome, but Gabby was even awesomer!
Mon Conti - 30 plus and ran the legs off a last qtr intended tag. She will be BOG again - All Aust awaits - a beautiful soul.
Ellie McKenzie's best game, she is gaining enormous momentum, the skill is massive, her vision improving, the outside game becoming elite.
Eilish Sheerin - stella moments again, not the quantity of past games but the quality - imagine when we have the luxury of playing her as a mid!
Speaking of Stella, Reid! What a parcel of moments for her. That should give some belief! Gee I hope LOTW was watching - pftt at you!
Both Hoskings reveled playing against Carlton - shows what competitive spirit they have - Egan's game was good (18 touches?), but compare that to the Hoskings at the ball.
Special moments all were there for Jacques, Cox, Graham, Yassir, Keily and McLelland
Jemima Woods rucked a period to give Gabby a spell - got corked - but pushed through and just got better. She has a little something - I think it is tenacity.
Lavey had a thereabouts game same as Dempsey early, but in the second half they both found something more. Dempsey is a cool quarterback style, but playing up the ground a bit more. Her read of the play is getting back into sync, her form in the run up to the finals could be huge as she picks off oppo's forward forays, gathers ground balls with ease.......
Lynch. She has one touch, and one tackle. by her standards a shocker - yet what she as a defender filling space, cutting off should not be underestimated. Poor game? Maybe, but a contributor nonetheless.
KB, welcome back - easied in, kicked a lazy goal.
Courtney Wakefield - four goals in this game is eliite, especially when they follow four marks!
Watch sheerins passes exiting d50 , she never wastes one , dimma would be happy with that , no wonder we’ve improved so much

Where were you earlier or do you just lurk waiting for me to say something you can comment on?
ellie played a good second half. First half was ordinary.
She’s a star tug lighten off her , so glad she’s a tiger , with her Moncon kb cw hosko sheerin gracey gabs we can go places this year
 
Watch sheerins passes exiting d50 , she never wastes one , dimma would be happy with that , no wonder we’ve improved so much
She has been the difference - brings so many others in to the game by hand or foot
 
Ellie mc has pure skill and stands out like the proverbial in W there’s little she can’t do , plays thru the Centre of the ground and links up very well

Yeah, tonight was a growth game, still got caught a few times, but she worked through play better than she has so far I think. She plays like she still has confidence issues, but that is dissipating.

We’re still flying under the radar I reckon.

It’s only one dodgy free and three straight kicks that’s stopped us being on top of the ladder without a loss.

Go Tiges!
