It’s been raining and storming up here for the last week. We’ve been hammered the last week. At this stage rain predicted most of the week but only overcast over the weekend.
This just made me look at the Brisbane page on BOM and you've had 66mm of rain today?? My Adelaide brain can't fathom that!! Good things the Lions got the week off.

Was busy when the game started, and I didn't think the Crows would win, so I was very surprised to see the score at half time. After reading the posts here, I had to re-check, because the doom and gloom made me think it was the Crows with only 4 points!

Watched the second half, and thought it was one of the better games I've seen the girls play. Well deserved win. I hope they can recover well enough to give Brisbane a run for their money next week. 🤞
 
Pretty much the game that was expected. I thought Freo would keep it tight until half time, turns out they could only manage it until quarter time.

I think Gould, Ponter, Randall, Munyard and Ballard works as a forward line. Martin with a decent game today.

Now to travel to Brisbane next week! I think we're a sneaky chance over there, as much as Brisbane will rightly be the favourites going in.

Freo will come back stronger next year with Bowers back, Stannett back, Tighe back. That's their 3 best players right there (excluding Strom).

Crows won as expected. Martin played her best game. I was wrong about her. Just needs to be consistent. Ballard was excellent. Randall is shoulders above everyone in effort. When they are down, she is always the one to stand up. Biddell was incredible down back. Can't believe Gould kicked it into the woman on the mark. Munyard and Newman were great. Lots of players stood up strong today. Thought Jess Allan was phenomenal in the ruck and kept up with her all game. Noffy had her usual Noffy game, which is pretty much BOG.

Brisbane are always favourite against the Crows; their home ground, week off, they have the wood against us. But, I bet Brisbane will come out to the media this week claiming they are the underdogs. Crows are going to have to play their best game to be able to beat Brisbane.

We normally get crucified by the umpires up here. But then that’s true everywhere. We’ve seen two heartbreaking losses up here the last two times we’ve played them. It’d be enormous for us to turn that around.

We got the job done in difficult conditions - though it wasn’t as stifling as I expected it to be.

Of course, if they played the game any other time this weekend the conditions would’ve been great for finals footy.

Now watch the AFL question why our crowd was so low
