Pretty much a full backline!

Go Dee's , enjoy the live game and I'll be watching Kayo in a few hours due to bloody meetings!

The fittest players that can fit into the squad. Hopefully they go hard at each other this weekend.

The positive is we have 2 weeks to reset and freshen up. Follow themes program in preparation. :)

A win is a win... guess its good to have a tougher match just before the finals after a couple of easy games.

Well done Daisy, what a crap qtr...

Percentage if important, briefly we were above the crows, but behind now. I guessing the saints won't score enough tomorrow to drag down Adelaide's.

Started it, just to the start of 2021 season. Stopped as my son needed to go to bed and we'll finish together tomorrow. He's 10 so he know nothing and was amazed by the bad depths we sank. All good from now!

Just reading through the thread post game. Not waking anything away from our great win. Freo did not have their captain (also out last week) but lost their next 2 best players just before the game due to covid protocols (Called one players who was working on her uni assignment at the beach). It was a training run at times for us as any side esp. in the AFLW losing top 3 really hurts, given the shallow depth of clubs. In saying that you can only play against what they put up. We should secure top 2 next week and that's great news going into the finals. Crows have got saints, so unless so dramatic happens they should retain top spot? The ball movement in the protected stadium was great to see and showcased what the better sides can do. The coaching team have got the group working together and its shows for the full 60 minutes (plus time on). Yep, Weid needs to talk to Harris, she marks beautifully at full extension on the move and pressure. She also pushes to get everything, though it does end up with on the ground at times which is not good. Great to see the girls live and those records should stand for a bit.

Won’t be in about 20 minutes…

Dockers gave completely stopped. Time to break aflw record score if 94, set what last week over the eagles. Optus has become the home away from home for the dees.

Enjoying the girls live for a change. They look good except Harris, hopefully she changed boots at halftime… l lets secure top 2, big half coming up.

Praccie game. Really confused on the Trac 50? Look like he was just frustrated with himself. but what 8 of them, plus the 6-6-6 rule breaches. Looked like player didn't know where they were going. What was obvious its going to tea more work to get our 2nd their players into the structure of the team. Looked like a lack of talk with multiple contesting the same ball. Can the weid take an overhead mark at AFL level?? Had 2 good opportunities and missed both. though I heard he played in Casey earlier in the day and kicked 4. But he's still dropping what he should take.

No, but the media love grabbing her almost every game to talk too due to her status.

Bloody annoying they have the free game on at 4pm on weekday. Really hard to get there with the kids to watch the girls play after school being in freo.

What a see-sawing game. Like other I have to say the umpiring on throws, holding and high are horrendous in most AFLW games, but this was the worst I've seen for awhile. It's like it was amateur night for the umps, on the decisions they made and missed (A lot more misses). Brisbane were on and should have put us away by qtr time, 2nd at the latest. Total pressure and controlling the game (Plus our continual fumbles, humility or pressure?). Only moving Daisy back gave us some structure and movement. But like all year, we reset and the second half we got on top. Was this because of a change in effort/attitude by the team. One hopes. But did Brisbane simply tire? Didn't seem so, they were still running well, but we had stepped up. Harris amazing, though she a terrible post game interviewee, not really much to say and always looks like a deer in headlights. (Needs media training). But her footy does the talking. As the odds for the same player after the siren, it was a nice off the boot but luckily outside her range. I wonder what was going through her head, like not again! But we have beaten a team in the top group and it was a well fought win in the end and should give the team confidence.

must've one hell of a powerpoint...

Don’t crossbreeds end up being sterile and eventually die off…. 🥱

chance to put a gap between us and the behind. Crows kill dus with pressure last year, saints did the same last week till we broke out. Been a trend this year with the top sides, suddenly breaking out in the last qtr to run away with it. The other teams can't seem to sustain he pressure for 4 qtrs.

Menstration is a significant risk to injury. Went to a PD with eagles aflw team. (I coach junior girls) first day of period is the worst for injury, they do adjust demands on players to accomodate, yes in a game it’s harder. The period leads to softening of ligaments, amongst other effects. They also showed how it affects energy levels and performance over the cycle. Very interesting. They track the data and use energy peaks in the cycle to push development hard then ease off in other parts.

Excuse my French, but who gives a [censored] about 186, we just won the GF…

Thank you, I'll check it out.

The most annoying feature of kayo is when you join the telecast after it has started (usually out doing kids stuff) and it puts the bloody score at the top of the screen. I have to block that part of the screen with my hand so I don't see it. Does the same with the big bash games. Otherwise best thing for me in WA, can see every game on the big tv and not have to pay for all that other Foxtel crap.

Interestingly leading up to and after the GF, he was the focus of all the media for the bulldogs (Mostly likely by his flowing hair). The interest in him was intense, and that included his online activities. Not sure if its related, but wishing him the best and quick return to footy.

As a rookie to see if he has the character in our environment. But in his current environment, he looks like a player that has not clicked to what is required beyond talent.
