AFLW 2024 - Round 6 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Daisy is the Chris Judd of women's footyDaisy. If Erin had of played top level SA women's football or vflw instead of basketball she could have achieved what Daisy has. On paper erin has had the better aflw career. Daisy a better footballer.
Oh how generous to say she's almost a bona fide footballer.Erin is as close as I've seen to a bona fide footballer at AFLW level.
Pearce would struggle to get a kick in VAFA D Grade reserves, she'd be monstored out of contests.
Post it on the main AFL board. New thread. She was awesome in her prime.Erin has announced this weekend will be her last game
As noted earlier - no debate
You made me go looking at who it was. Never heard of him, but here's his foot cvJust for those who don't know/recall, the dealio with the 2019 GF BOG was that one nincompoop put Davey ahead of Hatchard in his votes.
In such a drubbing, ya gotta give the 3 and 2 to the winning team, which would've changed the result.
It wasn't a situation where Phillips or some other player was visually mistaken for Hatchard, and nabbed votes that way. Stories for another time.
At the end of the game I was standing there goingYeah, they were the only one to vote for Davey as well.
Josh Vanderloo: 3. Hatchard, 2. Phillips, 1. Randall
Brett Munro: 3. Phillips, 2. Davey, 1. Hatchard
Mark Soderstrom: 3. Hatchard, 2. Phillips, 1. J. Foley
Liz Walsh: 3. J. Foley, 2. Hatchard, 3. Phillips
Jo Wotton: 3. Phillips, 2. Randall, 1. Hatchard
Final tally:
11 votes - Phillips
10 votes - Hatchard
4 votes - J. Foley
3 votes - Randall
2 votes - Davey
Brianna Davey had a fine game (22 touches and a goal) but even so, I agree that she didn't belong ahead of Hatchard (23 touches and a goal) given how one-sided the game was. On the other hand, fancy Liz Walsh voting Jess Foley as BOG! She was good, but come on.
All five people had both Hatchard and Phillips in their votes, and three of them had Hatchard ahead. Crazy that she somehow ended up behind!
Yeah well bias aside, if there was any doubt about his grasp of women's football, look no further than the stint at Carlton after that grand final. Dealing with somebody who prioritised a 29yo Vescio over a 22yo Prespakis... yikes.You made me go looking at who it was. Never heard of him, but here's his foot cv
2000-2006 - Opposition Scout for Carlton
2008-2011 - Opposition Coach/Performance Analyst for Carlton
2011-2017 - Opposition Coach/Game Analyst for Gold Coast
2018-2019 - Umpire/Game Analyst for AFL
2020 - Womens List Manager for Carlton
2021-2022 - General Manager of Womens Football for Carlton
2023 - Accredited Player Agent
I mean, hadn't been with Carlton for 8 years at that stage. But there'd be a heavy Carlton bias in there...
Depends on how we're defining professionalism. Could be argued both "girls" are the definition of professionalism.How many games both girls played in their professional careers . . . 70 games or less?
I believe Daisy played 188 senior games for Darebin and 13 for Victoria, in addition to the 55 AFLW games for Melbourne.
So that comes to 256, not including the 7 exhibition games for Melbourne which were fair dinkum, and roughly the same amount of Vic U19 games which were played against senior opposition. And two IR games for Australia.
70 being the number of VFA games Chas Brownlow played? Is that the qualifying number to get a medal named after you?How many games both girls played in their professional careers . . . 70 games or less?

So what is the Brownlow medal being changed to?Not in the professional era it does not.

No chance - he has played less than 70 games in the professional era.Maybe we change it to the Nick Daicos medal?
Your timeline is a bit screwed up there, mate. Pearce earned her reputation as a great player while dominating the VWFL and the best-of-the-best exhibition games. Btw, even at AFLW level, she's won more club B&Fs than Paxman (not voted on by the media).Yes, she did a lot for women's football behind the scenes, but as a player she was just an average footballer. Massively over hyped by the Vic media who were desperate to find a player at a Vic club to compare to Erin. She wasn't even the best player at Melbourne (Karen Paxman)!
Women's Div 1 amateurs footy is probably a higher standard in 2023 than the VWFL was 10-15 years ago. Apples and Oranges.Pearce earned her reputation as a great player while dominating the VWFL...
That's dumb.Women's Div 1 amateurs footy is probably a higher standard in 2023 than the VWFL was 10-15 years ago. Apples and Oranges.
