Preview Round 4 : away vs St Kilda, RSEA Park, Saturday 21 September 2pm

[Davo-27]

Stephenson has struggled In contests today, Vukic is an upgrade on her imo

 

[I got the outside word]

Everest making a claim to be one of my favourites this season.

 

[Davo-27]

Wales has developed into one of the best rucks in the game.

 

[Davo-27]

West does so much great work in the contest all game, exactly what we were missing in our 1st 2 seasons, she's great for us. Gives us momentum winning the hard balls, Stephenson took a mark 40m out but failed to make the distance

3/4 Time
StK - 2.5 - 17
Haw - 5.7 - 37

Wales has developed into one of the best rucks in the game.

Yeah she's probably best on ground today.

 

[Davo-27]

McDonagh to Gilroy, beautiful free flowing Goal

StK 17-43 Haw

 

[Davo-27]

Everist with another goal saving smother and intercept disposal, she's done It at least 3 times this game lol

 

[Davo-27]

McDonagh brings it to ground in the marking contest and Stratton gets the crumb and easy goal in the goal square

StK 17 - 50 Haw

 

[Davo-27]

Elliot starting to show some skill, she's had a good 4th quarter

McDonagh free kick in the goal square, 2nd goal for Aine

StK 17-56 Haw

 

[Davo-27]

Aine to Fleming to Bodey for a long goal from a mark 35m out, kicks her 4th goal, Bodey on fire

StK 17- 62 Haw

 

[Davo-27]

Aine McDonagh keeps a wayward kick alive from the boundary, lands in Ashmores hands she centres the ball and Bodey takes an uncontested mark in the goal square and Bodey kicks her 5th goal

StK 17-68 Haw

 

[muldercs]

How can you not love these girls.. the teamwork is first rate..

74 to 17 a classy win.

 

[Davo-27]

Wales kicks it long into the goalsquare and Bodey marks behind the pack and kicks her 6th

StK 17-74 Haw -- Final Score at RSEA Park

Bodey getting the freedom of playing wing in spurts in the 1st half inspired this run of goals commentators are saying, maybe there's something to it?

Jasmine Fleming having a huge run and potentially a great running goal, but the siren went as she crossed the 50m line and denied her...

 

[jenniferHAWKinS]

Too quick too good today. Bodey 6 snags!!

 

[Davo-27]

1st half was a wrestle, then we scored 37 points to nil In the last quarter

 

[heh]

They ran the game out well.
If our forwardline can hold half of what they manage to get their hands on watch out..
Love the way the team attacks it.

 

[bigmaxi]

Wow what a win, that is some serious scoring. Weapons in the forward line, defense strong and the way they closed out the game Sensational. This dynamic team is going places.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Only caught the last half but was so worth it.

Absolute smashing.

Hawk talls were great and the players just knew where each other would be. Loved it

 

[hfc70]

Fox desperately wanted to get to men’s Prelim dribble
Left the women’s game right on the final siren……..poor form

 

[grumbleguts]

Bodey kicked more goals today than the Western Bulldogs have so far this season.

 

[Liam AFLW nuff]

probably our best performance in the AFLW to date.

Going to be a very fun game to review

They cut off as soon as siren sounded so we could get 80 minutes of preview! Ridiculous. Worst thing about the whole game, thanks Fox.

That outta the way, how good are our Hawk girls? Beating Saints is legit, we have to consider ourselves a finals standard team now. Next 7 games is about working out how to keep developing, raising standards and making sure we can turn it up when it counts. Can't get complacent. 7 wins is magic number imo, target now has to be getting a finals win, not just happy to be there.

Wales BOG? She was definitely the best at HT, game was all one way after. Will be close with how Bodey and Gilroy played. Jas is becoming more and more the player we hoped she'd be. Her development has been fun to track, excited to see what is next. Possible Bates least noticeable game of the season...still got 17 disposals and was always around. Just so much class.

I don't think Eardley is at 100% yet, seems to be managed minutes and experimenting with her up forward was a bold call. I don't know how the mosquito fleet that is the rest of the backline does it, but they are standing up well against much taller opponents. Smith and TLR shouldn't work but credit to them and the coaches because it's very effective. Richo has to be in AA form.

Mack forward is an interesting one. Not personally a fan and at the game, you can tell she's a defender (and someone who will be up there with the best in the competition at that). How we manage the next 2 weeks with another 3 games will be interesting
