Stinear still coaching the same as 2 years ago. Stop the handball and short kicks.!!! The girls can kick far enough today. 

Doggies last week and Pies today just play long direct football. We play short sideways garbage that is so laborious. 

[Meggs 585]

Under pressure, only Hanks and Paxman and possibly Lily M & Kate H can reliably execute skill.  Pies seemingly have a strong blend of girls who can kick well and with distance.   Of our defenders, no one can really hit a target in comparison to Collingwood.  This needs to be a focus for 2022 recruitment. 
Quite a few quiet girls today, Heath, Paxy, Mithen and Parry has been unsighted since her 3 goals against North. Zanker and Bannan need to do something in the second half.  Low expectations, there was little to enthuse and Pies are playing so well.

What gets me is the decision making. It is really poor.

[Kick_It_To_Pickett 3,291]

Goldie has played on every time she has marked. It’s not Gaelic. Someone get out to her

[whatwhat say what 22,309]

this has been a tough watch

as bad as we've ever looked

[P-man 13,366]

Christ. Finally.

[Brownie 5,921]

Wow a goal after 4 behinds. We could have been right back in this.

1.6. 12 to 4.4 28.

 

[Little Goffy 14,132]

Well, that was a better quarter.  McNamara stood out.  A proper little fighter there for sure.

But the shots... the shots...

[McQueen 17,864]

Into the wind 3 goals are highly unlikely. 

[dl4e 5,851]

Again our kicking was poor. Make no mistake the filth were asleep that quarter.

[P-man 13,366]

Poor goal kicking is poor football.

[Brownie 5,921]

Geez Macnamara fought hard that quarter. Great defensive pressure on that far forward flank

[Deeoldfart 7,999]

Why couldn't we play like that in the first half (goalkicking notwithstanding)?

[darkhorse72 1,872]

Bloody Cunningham just before the siren, your a full forward, you mark and go back for a shot.  Thats your only job!

[Kick_It_To_Pickett 3,291]

This performance was pathetic. The worst we’ve played ever in AFLW. There is a lack of skill and class at both ends of the ground. The midfield is weak. It’s pretty sad to see how this team has deteriorated. 

[Little Goffy 14,132]

Oh for... yeah, not good enough.  The moment we try to be cautious we bugger it up.

We have a lot of players out there who are a lot better than this and I've lost confidence in Stinear.

[McQueen 17,864]

Low confidence, poor skills and little game awareness in the majority of this group.

Daisy has been terrible and was last week too. Playing her in defence is wrong too. Midfield or nowhere.

[george_on_the_outer 7,446]

Daisy only hit 1 target the whole game. Stop kicking short!

Same old forward entry and delivery Faults  and goal kicking mistakes.
 

Missing Petrevski after 2 games no scouters !!

[dl4e 5,851]

I think it is now time to realise that the coach just isn't up to it. This short kicking and handballing game will not work against a decent opponent.

Appears to me that we are a bit soft. Dogs roughed us up and now pies and we can't handle it. Every team now will go at us hard and look for us to roll over which is happening here and last week.

Looked like grown women playing girls today. Cunningham too much difference between best and worst, need a full forward who's a lot more dynamic.

This was Mick's big gamble and 5 th or 6 th shouldn't save him after 5 years of forward frustration. 

[DubDee 24,703]

You can’t have your captain shanking kicks. She needs to handball more coz it rips the momentum apart
 

2 goals 18 carrying on from last week. Pathetic. The pies almost stopped in The 3rd and we still couldn’t score 

[Deeoldfart 7,999]

When you do the basics right, you give yourself a chance.  When you don't, you give yourself no chance.  That just about sums it up.
