Review Round 6 v St Kilda @ Coopers Stadium (Norwood)

[brucetiki]

Adelaide v St Kilda
Friday 4 October
7:15pm
Norwood Oval

After another close loss to the Lions, it's back to the ever popular (LOL) Norwood for the start of our condensed part of the fixture, with 3 matches in 9 days.

St Kilda, after starting the season 3-0 are now 3-2 following two losses at Moorabin.

Who will get the win Friday night?

AFLW Injury Update: Round Six

Allen won’t feature in Adelaide’s next three games

www.afc.com.au

Najwa Allen’s hamstring turning out to be similar to Sarah Allan’s last season.

 

[cmndstab]

I've essentially written her off for this season. Maybe a bonus in the finals.

 

[cmndstab]

Mueller returns this week! Boileau and Varnhagen also in.


Tonon out injured (ankle, at training) while Martin and Levy are out managed.

Tarlinton named as emergency (alongside Martin and Levy).

Finally Mueller back from the wilderness, though must say strange to see her go from not even in an extended squad to named to play… must’ve played a hell of a scratch match

Varnhagen in is a massive meh with her likely impending delisting see little point to her being given further chances should’ve just played Tarlinton over her just so they could’ve managed Jess Allan’s minutes/rested her up forward a lot more during this congested fixture.

 

[cmndstab]

The club seems pretty upfront that this is about managing players, so the real question will be who goes back out again next week.

I'll be interested in the presser to see if anyone asks about Mueller, so we can at least hear what the club line is on her exile.

 

[Firewalker]

At least both teams aren’t wearing white this time around at this ground

 

[Firewalker]

St Kilda’s ball movement is going to be a worry

 

[JP Sauce]

That's awful womanning up in the bbackline.

It was Marinoff & Randall ball watching that caused it

 

[Cromulant]

Fair goal

 

[JP Sauce]

Fantastic finish!

 

[dplggr47]

That was incredible by Munyard

 

[Firewalker]

Great goal from Munyard, keep her close to goal!

 

[Firewalker]

Some bad misses from Gould’s standards, St Kilda determined not to give any Crows defender space to drop off/impact

 

[ams4crows]

Gould's marking is awesome


Also I love how many smothers are in the women's game

 

[Firewalker]

Every time Crows try to switch on this ground…

 

[Firewalker]

Forward line other than Gould again looking pretty below par, ball has pinged out way too easily, Sarah Allan back to having to save the day consistently with the other defenders not being able to get set with the speed of St Kilda’s ball movement, need to lock it in 50 this quarter.

 

[Firewalker]

Mueller not in good shape heading down into the rooms

 

[JP Sauce]

That looked miles over.

 

[ams4crows]

Was it touched off the boot because the ump was signalling touched before the girl on the line touched it

 

[Cromulant]

That looked miles over.

I thought it might have been off the boot ??

 

[Firewalker]

Crows forwards don’t help themselves they bunch up on each other and have no space at all.

 

[JP Sauce]

Was it touched off the boot because the ump was signalling touched before the girl on the line touched it

I thought it might have been off the boot ??

Yeah must have been

 

[Firewalker]

Just trying to pick out their spare back all quarter.
