An article on the advantages the eagles have being in the dominant team in a 2 team town. Also the boost of winning the premiership. https://thewest.com.au/business/west-coast-eagles-overtake-collingwood-as-afls-biggest-revenue-generator-ng-b881146517z Way ahead of the other "big" clubs.

Round 1 Non MFC games
Went to the Freo/North games (son was playing the HT auskick, he was the dancing boy when they showed them : ) ) The skills by North were shocking, basic, errors, fumbling, made Freo looked good. But Freo did put their foot down and it showed they could be dangerous at least at home this year. What to do with McCarthy as they weren't even going to play him and he had a day out. It was a really hard round to judge some sides and it seems the JLT standard went a week longer for skills and touch wise.

Round 1 Non MFC games
In previous years underdone teams at the start of the could start with extra players in defence to control the game and stop quick scoring. This is no longer the case. But as the fitness builds i see the clubs with more talent moving to the top of the league. (Assuming individual players they perform as expected) This used to happen in the 80s due to the limited preseasons compared to modern football. They played into fitness. As for Brisbane you could see the signs lats year that they were improving, natural progression and whether they can sustain it.

AFLW: Rd 5 vs GWS
Bit of a joke really. Worse considering the margin we lost those 2 games.

AFLW: Rd 5 vs GWS
I was reading that in the US conference system they take the top X number of teams based upon points/percentage and not ladder position. Why didn't they do that?

AFLW: Rd 4 vs North Melbourne
They are also good at ducking We need a few goals with our dominance.
-
AFLW: Rd 4 vs North Melbourne
Why don't North get penalised for putting the ball on the ground all the time, instead of giving it to the Dee player when they had possession of it? It should be 50? It seems to be a tactic to hold up play.

AFLW: Shae Sloane Ruptures ACL on debut
The higher rate comes from less muscle development during their junior days. I.e. less physically active and therefore not developing strong muscles prior to adulthood. This has also been linked to higher injuries in newer generations due to different and less physical upbringings. This the increase in junior girls footy this should reduce over time.

AFLW: The Farce of the Conference System
They have botched the two groups, Given the system they chose it seems odd it has happened. Basically One pool is dominating the other pool, look at the percentage between the two. So the opposition in the GF will be a weak team by default. Though Freo has been a surprise, stye only just pipped us, reckon if we played them week 2 or 3 we would have beaten them. We always seem to start slow. North I haven't seen but they seem to have joined very strong?

AFLW: Rd 3 vs Brisbane
We need to win. We are in the strong conference group. Look at the percentage between the two. Its seems to come out completely loop sided.
