AFLW Round 10 - 2024 AFLW season

[Teen Wolf]

She has had a strong second half of the season, including the Suns game which was her least prolific statistically.

Would be a tough Rising Star race if Matilda Scholz wasn't in the running, or if a couple others also spent last year settling in at AFLW level.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

And just like that we give up a cheap goal after all that dominance

 

[Cdog71]

Thought Vescio was cooked and still might be.
But maybe…she’s got one big game left in her

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Be good if we can seal the game in the 3rd

 

[Teen Wolf]

Looking like Carlton will join Collingwood on the list of teams that will go the whole season without cracking 40 points in a game.

 

[Teen Wolf]

Maddy Prespakis has had a 3rd-consecutive AA-worthy season for Essendon. Will she be stupidly overlooked for a second year in a row?

Bombers still making finals with very little contribution from Toogood says it all.

Carlton have ruined her

 

[Aristarchus]

Purely academic, but how much would Port have to lose by for Melbourne to jump above them? ~120pts?

 

[Matthew2708]

Fremantle need to win 110 to 0 against the Western Bulldogs if they want to finish top 4.
If they started the game 110 to 0, Fremantle would have to score 10 to 11 points everytime Western Bulldogs kick a goal.

Exactly 120 points, if Port Adelaide failed to score.
Every goal Port Adelaide kicks, GWS Giants need to score roughly 7 points to keep Port Adelaide out of the top 8.

I hate to say it but we seem to play better without Toogood we are less predicable in the forward line.

Gotta feel for Bonnie she had a rough year first her knee now the ankle.

Perosnally I would have made her miss the entire season get her cherry ripe and fit for 2025

 

[Teen Wolf]

Even if the Bulldogs and Giants lose by 100 points today, the bottom 5 spots on the ladder will stay as is. So I'm willing to bet it's not premature to summarise the progress of Collingwood, Gold Coast, Sydney and Carlton.

Collingwood's last five seasons (figures include finals)​

Season	Won	Lost	Drawn	%	Finishing position
2021	8	3	0	162.4	3rd /14
2022 S6	6	5	0	104	6th /14
2022 S7	8	4	0	112.6	6th
2023	5	5	0	83	11th
2024	1	10	0	44.3	18th

Gold Coast's last five seasons (figures include finals)​

Season	Won	Lost	Drawn	%	Finishing position
2021	0	9	0	36.5	14th /14
2022 S6	3	6	1	68.2	10th /14
2022 S7	5	5	0	88	9th
2023	6	4	1	111.7	7th
2024	1	9	1	54.7	17th

Sydney's last three seasons (figures include finals)​

Season	Won	Lost	Drawn	%	Finishing position
2022 S7	0	10	0	35.9	18th
2023	7	5	0	96.4	6th
2024	3	8	0	73.4	15th

Carlton's last five seasons​

Season	Won	Lost	Drawn	%	Finishing position
2021	5	4	0	125.8	7th /14
2022 S6	4	6	0	84	8th /14
2022 S7	2	6	2	74	14th
2023	4	6	0	86	12th
2024	4	7	0	50	14th

And given that a 100-point loss wouldn't see Port drop out of the 8, it's also safe to say Melbourne are locked into 9th place:

Melbourne's last five seasons (figures include finals)​

Season	Won	Lost	Drawn	%	Finishing position
2021	8	3	0	125.2	4th /14
2022 S6	10	2	0	167.4	2nd /14
2022 S7	12	1	0	255.8	1st
2023	8	4	0	179.9	5th
2024	6	5	0	87.9	9th

 

[Teen Wolf]

Another throbbing mess of jumpers. Has to be clear dark v light matchups for Indigenous Round, particularly afternoon games when the shadows make everything look the same from a distance.

 

[Teen Wolf]

Brisbane now 2nd on the live ladder. Not just the million on the line for them and Hawthorn today, but also home ground advantage for next week's 2 v 3 qualifying final.

 

[CURVE]

North Melbourne finish the regular season with a percentage of 315.4, which is a new AFLW record beating the 282.4 achieved by Brisbane in the second 2022 season.

Erin Phillips	2019	21.7	1.29
Jasmine Garner	2020	21.0	1.33

Jasmine Garner	2023	30.0	1.00
Jasmine Garner	2024	25.8	1.18

Begs the question why Garner was never included in the Erin v Daisy debate. How Collingwood were using her in the early days of the AFLW and her age and experience compared the other two are probably the big reasons, but what she has been doing on the park for the last seven seasons there are strong claims that she is the best player in AFLW history. Probably needs to lead her team to a premiership win to really cement that claim.

because in the league infancy, these two were clearly a step above everyone else -

Garner's body of work over the following season's will get herself talked about in these kinds of discussions but she wasn't a glaring omission from the outset

 

[The Nostradamus]

Orla odwyer looks scared of contact with her shoulder hanging on by a thread

Just hacks it away once she gets it before anyone comes near her

 

[Teen Wolf]

Wow, Dakota Davidson has lost the plot.

 

[Teen Wolf]

And then butchers a free goal gifted to her courtesy of a super Belle Dawes run, wtf.

Driving me nuts

 

[Teen Wolf]

Tyanna Smith with 6 tackles and 6 clearances to 3QT. You like to see that from a speedy youngster / classy user by foot... or do you? Not so much, if it means she's not getting any outside footy whatsoever: 10 disposals, 6 metres gained.

And 5 seconds later she gets two I50s by bursting out the pack and kicking long to Wardlaw one-out (who should've done better with at least one of those chances).

 

[Teen Wolf]

Kiara Bowers is listed at 164cm so I can't sign off on the claim that 160cm Jaimee Lambert is pound-for-pound the strongest tackler in the comp's history.

 

[Teen Wolf]

Wardlaw has kicked 2 but missed a couple in the 2nd half she should've put away. They weren't gonna put her in the AA team anyway, but it's taken a bit of the gloss off another strong game and season.
