Women's Footy The AFLW Thread – Offseason Underway

[jhong]

McNamara off ,nose re-arranged . Heath may have a shoulder problem and off .

 

[PerfectFooty]

Just got home. We are in trouble, and obvs just not this game

 

[PerfectFooty]

Continuing my rant on game time. We just lost like a minute of time due to the ball being recalled for a bad throw in. I don't blame boundary umps umpiring at this wind effected older grounds. But like cmon, the clock should be paused for a professional league

 

[Dory_77]

Yeah was listening to radio call at work but got too depressing. Sounds like a mauling, and no more Lizey Mac or Heath who've both been good this year. McNamara has probably been our best player this year.

Hopefully some players we haven't seen much can get some game time, go for some youf. ****, we may even get #1 pick at this rate!

 

[jhong]

McNamara back on the ground. There is no connection between the lines at all . Ask the girl answering the phones to put some boots on ,that's how long the injury list is . Just write the season off .

 

[PerfectFooty]

Good time to throw Bannon to half back. This game is lost

 

[Headless]

Like a warm blanket!

 

[jhong]

If there was any doubt we'd miss the finals , there is no doubt now . On to the next game then .

 

[Dory_77]

Like a warm blanket!

 

[Headless]

We needed that.

Could have done with another.

 

[Dory_77]

We really are phoning in this year based off the pride kit we've put out:


Very half-arsed effort, just like the weekend!

 

[Headless]

Injury list is really mounting.

 

[jhong]

Injury list is really mounting.

Thats one way of putting it .

 

[Crusty Demon]

Lost complete interest in the girls this season tbh.

 

[jhong]

Home game at Ikon park . Do we get a fee for not playing at Casey?

 

[jhong]

Good couple of goals. I don’t know half the girls playing tonite for us .

 

[PerfectFooty]

I just got home from holiday to philip island we going alright

 

[PerfectFooty]

Just in time to see Bannon actually use her body as a tall forward. I hope she is alright though

But that's something she needs to show more of. Hopefully a bit of physicality will do her some good (But reasonably of course)

 

[PerfectFooty]

Also i've just seen 'that goal' i missed in the first quarter. Glad to see her going off this match

 

[jhong]

Hore , hanks, Bannon all going alright . Some of the lesser known are putting in as well . Not sure where Heath is playing, seems to bob up all over the place . Now keep it up !!

 

[PerfectFooty]

Bit of a drop off in the second half. But tackling and pressure has still been good. Hore has been elite

 

[jhong]

will take any win . They worked hard for it .

 

[Canary]

Tough game to watch given the Freo debacle but they seemed far more involved than last week's horror show. Some pretty simple errors from the bottom rung of our list really hammers home how tough the injuries have hit. Lost count of how many times Bannan ran over the ball.

Heath, Chaplin, Hore, Hanks all outstanding and showed their class.

 

[Dory_77]

Just watching the replay. Effort much better around the ball, good pressure in close although a bit bees to honeypot at times. Gave up a lot of easy metres from kick outs. Defence through the middle of the ground was a bit poo but some good desperation to fix things up.
Pisano looks great. Good that Hanks got her hands on the ball more and used it well. Hore much better this week too.

 

[jhong]

So I think the top 3 seem to be Roos , lions and Crows. Hawks look ok , hard to tell with how the fixtures are organised. Our percentage suggests we are where we are on the ladder is about right . Not a fan of this compressed section .
