Currently down by 5 points at half time, 2.1.13 to 3.0.18.
First quarter was pretty ordinary, but play opened up a bit in the second quarter and we got some good passages of play happening at times. Just had a few off handballs or players fumbly below the knees and have been made to pay for it.
Lost count of how many times an Essendon player has either jumped on the ball and not even tried to get rid of it, or dropped the ball as soon as they were tackled and got away with it, yet when we try to move the ball on when we get tackled we get pinged for incorrect disposal. Go figure.

My favourite part of tuning into VFLW matches with no commentary is listening to whoever is behind the camera snivel and cough. This dude is sick.

Gabbi isn’t.
Actually she is one last year I thought would play a lot, didn’t turn out that way.

Couple of interesting things with selection this week:
- Ingrid Houtsma is back in the side even though she's AFLW listed and they're in their pre-season at the moment.
- Both Charlotte Simpson and Analea McKee are out of the side this week, but only Simpson is playing in the All-Stars match - McKee is being managed.

Think that’s happened a few times with our VFLW players, and even seeing a number of Falcons being drafted over recent years
I knowe we haven’t had the success at AFLW level that we would all love to see, but we seem to be doing something right in terms of development at the lower levels

Very real chance we could miss the finals after being on top of the ladder a few weeks ago.
We're currently in 6th spot and play 3rd placed Williamstown away, who are currently on a 5 game winning streak. Essendon and Carlton who are nipping at our heels in 7th and 8th place respectively play the 2 bottom sides on the ladder.
