AFLW: Rd 07 vs Western Bulldogs

[WERRIDEE 5,198]

This should be a tougher match against the Bulldogs 3:10 Sunday October 9 at Casey. The Bulldogs have just come off 2 losses after being undefeated in the first for weeks while Melbourne have lost 1 game for the year and that was to Brisbane. The Dees beat Fremantle by 30 points last week while the Bulldogs lost by a point to Geelong.

I expect Sherriff to be back this week and that should be the only change.

 

Possible team 

B: Birch, Gillard

HB: Goldrick, Gay, Heath

C: Mithen, Purcell, Paxman

HF: Hore, Zanker, Bannan

F: D.Pearce, Harris

FOLL: L.Pearce, West, Hanks

IC: Sherriff, Lampard, Mackin, Duffy, Fitzsimon

[WERRIDEE 5,198]

Vote | Another Mark of the Year nomination for Harris (melbournefc.com.au)

The doggies have had a soft run. they've beaten GWS, Freo, Port and the Hawks who are all siting in the bottom 6. They've been beaten by North and Geelong

We'll beat them handy I reckon.

It will be interesting to see if Heath gets more midfield time this week. Her 4th qtr cameo against Freo was pretty promising 

[Dees_In_October 3,346]

This will be Kate Hore's 50th game!

Upcoming potential 50-game milestones for the remainder of this season:

Daisy (48), Lampard (46) | Finals pending | Zanker (45)

Hopefully Sherriff can be back.

By 3:10 all the stacks would have happened at Bathurst and it will probably be a parade under safety cars.  Will be time to switch over and watch the Dees!

Dual screens for sure…

In: Casey Sherriff 

Out: Maddi Gay (hamstring tightness)

[WalkingCivilWar 31,132]

Hoping for a win to make Katie’s 50th memorable! 🤩

And not just a win, but a belting since our percentage needs to ⬆️
 

Fun fact: our 2022 Demon Army members caps were made by Graeme Yeats. 😃 Well not by him per se, although who knows he may loves him a bit of millinery from time to time, but by his company.

Left out a comma 😱

The sun’s shining and minimal chance of rain forecast for this arvo. It’s windy af but that’s better than raining.  

An observation…

I rarely have occasion to visit the eastern suburbs and haven’t in the longest time. The stark contrast between here and where I live is astounding! I mean, where are all your meth-heads at? And I’ve yet to see even one person walking around wrapped in a doona (dual purpose- warm bedding by night and warm cape by day). And y’all’s shoplifters selling their wares, where are they? Haven’t seen anyone sitting cross legged on the footpath selling 3-packs of Bonds jocks for $5 a pack. Do your ne’er-do-wells observe the Sabbath or something? I’m also having to adjust to walking around freely, not having to be mindful of avoiding treading on used syringes! I feel like I’m on another planet. 

LOL I just saw some other people here at Cranbourne station obvs also headed to today’s game. They’re in Bulldogs gear and have the exact same discombobulated look as I do. Fellow westies, for sure. 😁

 

GO DEES!!!!

Agree @BDA

Meggs is in USA with no coverage unfortunately so will be appreciatively monitoring this thread for updates 😎

2 bounces from Mackin. Missed the kick into the corridor earlier but not afraid to take it on. I think she's going to a good player for us

Dees playing with the wind 1st quarter leading 1 goal to zip. Very scrappy start. No fluency from us thus far

[rjay 23,866]

Mackin burnt a couple of times by teammates when she was out in the clear and in best position.

Need to fix this up, I hope Mick is on top of it.

[BDA 19,978]

compose yourself Tayla. 

Goldy giving away the freekicks is a momentum killer

[BDA 19,978]

bannan with the goal but looked like a push in the back by Zanker in the lead-up. thems the breaks. we'll take it

Dees 2.3.15 to 1.0.6 for the doggies

[Kick_It_To_Pickett 2,922]

Should be 6 goals up. I like the kicking to the leads inside 50, bet untypical of the AFLW, shows how far our side has come. Need to convert goals now

[BDA 19,978]

Dominant quarter but goal kicking letting us down

Dees 3.8.26 to doggies 1 straight
