whatwhat say what

ffs you gotta kick those zanker's kicking leaves a lot to be desired if she's going to play as a forward target

just as well zanker kicked that

we did well to limit them to two goals that quarter given their dominance someone needs to stop davey - she just brushed heath off like she was slotting a fly

this and getting all the frees that holding the ball in the goalsquare is just bollocks

no doubt, i just wasn't aware of it happening paxy paxman is a superhero name so works for me

disappointing last five mins of that quarter if you don't put it on the scoreboard in aflw when you have the opportunity to do so yr really hurting yourself

too much handballing opened up the space for them then bad kicking = bad football

when did k-pax ditch 'karen'?

defensive intensity is so good, as is our speed across the ground was a shame mcnamara couldn't kick the first goal of the season bannon should be one of the biggest starts of the aflw with her electric pace and ability to hit the scoreboard

georgiades signed a new deal with the pear so that's not happening mouch i can see replacing dunstan, but no doubt he will prefer to go somewhere where he's likely to see afl action, while billings is a completely different sort of player and wouldn't replace a dunstan-type on a list goldstein will want to be an afl-ready ruckman for a side next year, not behind gawn in the queue for afl opportunities

genuinely can't believe we have three players of the quality of petracca, oliver, and gawn in our side at the same time... ...let alone adding may, lever, salem, rivers, brayshaw, viney, and pickett to those three...

was he eligible to play as an 'overager' in the talent league competition? because personally i would say, if not, he's far better off playing at vfl intensity than a local league

it will be very interesting to see how the extended time periods and reduced interchanges effect scoring, which seems to be the generic complaint about aflw i think it'll help teams such as ours, tassie, and the bears, who are coming from a strong base

that used to be the case but i have no confidence it is now

will o'sullivan last until what is, at this stage, pick 15?

i don't think chol would be in our starting 23 he's good enough to maintain a spot on our list and play on occasion, but he's as reliable as a weideman or a schache when it comes to that ruck / forward role

would happily take that but i doubt the pear would be happy

my best guesses, which is all they are... harmes - 2024 contract smoothed out to 2025/6 grundy - requests trade to pear; probably a future 2nd coming back to us hibberd - retires / possible rookie spot retention melksham - retires tomlinson - retained on the list in 2024 due to no trade interest jordon - signs as a free agent elsewhere dunstan - no contract offer in 2024 disco turner - elevated to senior list brown - retires early, 2024 playing contract turned into coaching contract that's 5, possibly 6 off the list

She’s just another bois club member Legal graduate? Check! VAFA background? Check! Consultancy background? Check! Part of the firmament for years? Check! No different to Gil and Dil

i don't know about that @binman - bedford's skills don't seem as sharp to my eye as laurie and last season it was chandler and bedford that seemed to be in competition for the same role

bedford got offered a three year deal at gw$ with more opportunity, as opposed to two at the mfc where he was behind pickett, anb, chandler for the speed forward role he made the right call and good luck to him

i'm going to make an argument against this... ...if we pick two talented players, they're going to sign the standard two-year deal for picks... ...now let's say they extend that to an initial three-year deal... ...but what guarantee do they have of breaking into a perennial finals side? in two or three years time they might be frustrated with their lack of opportunity and request a trade for greater opportunity elsewhere; what's the chance we'd get a pick 4 or 5 back for them? i'd say unlikely - at the moment first / second round picks like jefferson (who will need to get ahead of jvr and petty) or laurie (in competition with spargo, chandler) or jordon (sparrow, woewodin, etc.) can't be guaranteed a spot in our side, and they have the added benefit of being part of our system and have, with the exception of jefferson, experienced a 'taste' of senior footy we're far, far better off putting our eggs in one top basket and backing one player who is considered by champion data to be the best talent and to have the best underage #s since petracca to break into our side quickly and to influence our play

when he gets THAT LOOK i know that we as a team are about to go on one

he's going to be a ripper of a player think ben hart

i would hope it'll be 95k plus change but in terms of actual ticket SALES, it's quite a bit less
