AFLW: SF vs Geelong

[pitmaster 3,585]

Unfortunately this headline writes itself. Going to be some unfortunate comparisons to the men's exits last two years.

Great mark from Pearce. Too bad she'd miss from the square.

This is embarrassing

There's surely something to it? Possibly the club thinks it's better than it is, and that results will just come.

At least the men were in with a chance in both finals this year.

The women have virtually rolled over in both of our finals this past week. Very poor indeed. Something doesn’t smell right about the MFC at the minute.

I was just thinking that.

Fumbling, poor disposal, can’t kick, mark or handball.

What has happened?

[YearOfTheDees 3,266]

It has just been an unbelievable drop-off over the past three four weeks.

[Docs Demons 1,792]

Gee WCW will be disappointed at the ground. This is not good for the women and club in general. Maybe Goody should get out of the box.

[Clintosaurus 7,913]

To reply to Alister Nicholson on 7 - I don't give a single [censored] about the public perception of the MFC. They are all nuffies I do not care for.

BRING BACK MARK NEELD!

Clearly catastrophising here.

It’s so sad that such a talented team is struggling to take marks, hit targets, lay tackles, play footy.

Lack of confidence and self belief? Lack of leadership?

[Bring-Back-Powell 15,064]

Anyone got the biggest AFLW 3 qtr time comeback margin handy?

[spirit of norm smith 16,596]

?? Pearce kicking is woeful ?? Harris thirty metres out from goal and passes sideways?? Confidence is shot. 

[YearOfTheDees 3,266]

You can not blame the Umpires or the ground for this. Something has just gone completely amiss at the wrong time. They look 2nd rate.

[dpositive 1,767]

it seems easy. wait for melbourne player take the ball, tackle them with a teammate and wait for the melbourne player  to give it to an opposition player and then take the opportunity.

[fr_ap 2,531]

Genuinely embarrassed with the effort the last two weeks.

To be honest, the women's team hasn't looked the same since Goodwin said he could sniff an AFLW flag at the BNF. 

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,626]

Wow. I wonder if any side has imploded so spectacularly in finals as we have this year. Men's or women's.

Just a simple thing. Lauren Pearce played a great quarter, but she can’t kick straight. This is known. Why has there not been at least one option running past her to take the handball ? Not one, not once.

Every single aspect of our game is poor at present, but our foot skills are simply atrocious. How can we have so many players who can't hit the side of a barn from 15 metres away?

He’s so bad. I admire his confidence in becoming a commentator despite the most unpleasant voice this side of Kelly Underwood

The commentators are the least of the problems.

 

Certainly, but the audio assault on top of the visual assault doesn't make for a pleasant Sunday afternoon  :')

[waynewussell 6,586]

I was writing a post to explain this, but I give up. I know what I would have said at half time if I was coach... But it is too late now. All we can hope for is that these women take some pride in their team and their personal performance in the final quarter. Our Golden period is clearly over. Mental issues more than physical issues. Its difficult to watch!

[whatwhat say what 23,106]

beaten up around the contest

physically intimidated

second to the ball

weak

[DEE32 100]

Wow another mix in the centre, waiting for Gillard, birch and zanker next
