The Kilmacud Crokes and the Foxrock Cabinteely!! Love it. Makes the Melbourne Demons and the Sydney Swans sound positively dull in comparison
-
Sorry but, allowing for a week in the VFL, what round is Ben Brown supposed to debut?
-
Fair enough to say it’s not champagne football but still a good game of footy. We are the far better side to date but I’m still nervous as hell

I had to Google but you are bang on DZ. 41.20 over his career which is very handy accuracy wise. I’ll swap my vote to Hunt -
According to the Before the Bounce podcast Mick Stinnear has coached the most winning games of any AFLW coach with 25. His overall win/loss record is 25/12 going at a very healthy 68%. As a general comparison (and I emphasise general) Clarkson and Hardwick go at 60% and 58% respectively. Goodwin is 49%

Great to hear from you GFF. Yes Goldie would be among the first picked each week and improves each game. Unbelievable to think that she is new to the game. I thought McEvoy would get a run this week. She has been consistently kicking goals in the lower league. Shame to hear she may not return.

Game day and I’m really looking forward to it. I can’t decide between which team we are a). We beat this team on their home patch just two weeks ago. We are the form team of the comp. We will have the home crowd. We should win ....... so like countless Melbourne teams before them they are bound to disappoint or b). This Melbourne team has belief, a great structure and a hard edge that will see them come out on top.

Normal sized mids must hate coming up against her whilst ours must love playing with her. Does Rnd 6-9 form = All Australian form ?

Freo had a Carltonesque draw. They played Gold Coast, GWS and West Coast twice. They did sneak past the Blues by 4 points but have lost to Brisbane, North and us along the way. In fact the only top 6 side Freo have beaten were Adelaide when the Crows kicked 1.7 all the way back in Rnd 3. Of course anything can happen but after 2 losses on the trot Freo won’t be brimming with confidence. With them having to travel on consecutive weeks the game will be there for us to win.

Goodwin is in his fifth year of senior coaching and has been with us since the end of 2014. He has an awesome list that has dreadfully underperformed. We should be aiming for a top 6 finish. The start to the season has been great but it is well and truly time his team stepped up

How many did she beat? https://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/890683/aflw-rd-9-hanks-kicks-a-cracker-early-in-the-fourth?videoId=890683&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1616834193001

Melbourne men win to go 2/0 Melbourne women win to guarantee a home final Bombers get flogged So aside from an umpiring malfunction in Geelong it has been the perfect weekend

How good was that!!

Yes we have a few passengers forward; Bannon, Cunningham Parry. Need them all to clunk a couple of marks
-
Brilliant thanks
-
So who do we prefer to play in week 1, and who has to win in the last round to make that happen?
-
Think Birch has to share in some of the blame for that kick. I’m guessing she called for it and being the senior player Tarrant would have felt somewhat obliged. Also Birch’s attempted tackle on the Freo player was half hearted at best which was possibly why the Freo player put the goal on Birch’s shoulders.

35° heat, a hostile crowd, in Perth, some ‘inconsistent’ umpiring decisions, against a team sitting 2nd on the ladder who doesn’t get beaten at home. And we roll them. It must give the team great confidence to get that win. I, like I’m sure many here, thought we would get run over towards the end but we gutsed it out. This team has some character. And to the AFL, who has manipulated a Carlton fixture that has included ALL the bottom teams whilst we have played ALL the top teams, put that in your pipe and smoke it! We are playing finals baby!!

Think we got Freo at a good time. Still I’ll take the win
-
Think Harmes maybe one of the mirror guys
-
I’m not a Tomlinson fan but reckon he has been good
-
Not in time for when we play them in Rnd 4 though

Anyone look at the standard of last nights game and think we may be in trouble?
