GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs Fremantle
How good is Jordan!

Concerned
Ironically its called "football", the new man on the mark rule does change movement, how will we adjust.

Mark Williams Interview
hopefully that is art of his role on gameday, or should he be in the box!

The Run to the Finals.
Useless blues had it in the bag today and blew it. Would have opened up a potential change in the top spots.

AFLW: Rd 07 vs Adelaide
Great win by the girls, really team effort with a few standouts already mentioned. Playing with purpose and a plan for the wet too. Looking forward to seeing them live next week in Perth. They'll come over with confidence in their system.

Medical Sub
I agree. it is bad luck for the team and the player for any injury that stops them taking the field. That's why overtime we have risen to 4 interchange players. The flexibility is already in the system.

Rating the coach against his peers
Once upon a time I didn't rate Hardwick either... but he has built a champion team. But it has taken him a long time, starting 2010.

AAMI Community Series: Non MFC
Pre-season is always higher scoring for all teams, no tags, though there seems to be more focus on attacking for at least the H&A, finals very different.

AFLW: Final 3 Games Locked In
Two at Casey is good, get to go to the footy in Freo which will be nice. We're shown we can match the bets sides, if we kick straight!

Demonland Supercoach 2021 Comp
Happy to go again team: darkhorse

Bruce McAvaney Retires
Good for a lot of her career, but I think he left it too long to retire from AFL and couldn't stand the drooling over some players (Generally never a Dee player).
-
AFLW: Rd 06 vs St. Kilda
Hopefully a chance to reset our goal kicking! And maybe a bit better structure.
-
AFLW: Rd 05 vs Collingwood
Bloody Cunningham just before the siren, your a full forward, you mark and go back for a shot. Thats your only job!
-
AFLW: Rd 05 vs Collingwood
So frustrating, at some point someone needs to go for goal...Then we let them kick those two late one's. We were good for the first 1/2 of the qtr, looked more settled except in the last 30mtr to goal. Why do we suddenly look so small and can't mark or spoil. Crap first half, lots of room for improvement.

AFLW: Rd 05 vs Collingwood
Whats wit the terrible camera angle. its like being at the ground with blinkers on... horrible to watch
-
AFLW: Rd 05 vs Collingwood
Haven't been impressed with freo all season as I have previously posted. But they had kept on winning until today. Hopefully our team has learnt from last week.
-
AFLW: Rd 05 vs Collingwood
Brisse have knocked the previously dominate freo in freo, need to win to stay in the finals pack. Bulldogs looked good again today against the giants. Turning into a very even comp for the top teams.

Practice Match Series: Non-MFC
Saw that in our game yesterday, thought it was strange how far back from the mark we were all the time, makes sense now. , means at no time we can give away a 50 if players move on a habit/reflex.
-
AFLW: Rd 04 vs Western Bulldogs
Terrible game with terrible kicking (if we kicked 50% better it was an easy win). Kicked ourselves out of the game by missing miss shots on goals and didn't fix out forward structure. Bulldogs know their game well. They also marked really well today around the group with their big players and were often positioned better out the back for when the ball went over, thats bad coaching/leadership by us.
-
AFLW: Rd 04 vs Western Bulldogs
Watching their games I really haven't rated them based on their opposition. But they have won 4/4. roos' seemed to have hit a wall at the moment, terrible footy decisions today.

AFLW: Rd 04 vs Western Bulldogs
Looks like we broke North last week, pies in control of them at the moment.

AFLW: Shae Sloane Suffers 3rd ACL
Thanks, as I said it was surprising as how that would make the ligaments more susceptible to injury, but it does somehow!
-
AFLW: Shae Sloane Suffers 3rd ACL
I have read that women on their period have a higher percentage chance of doing their ACL.. I thought it was witchdoctor science, but apparently its being backed up by evidence on the injuries. Do we need to change some practices, esp for someone like Sloane in their preparation and conditioning?
-
AFLW: Rd 03 vs North Melbourne
A decent period to give up their time. But it seems there is improvement every year in their income which us good. The men's have 6 weeks off at the end of the teams season, do for 1/2 the teams its 6 weeks from the last round. So November would be earliest for the men's to start training.
