Meggs

We are working our way back into the game. Effort there, execution a bit ordinary.

Gee, hope this is true, she is uncanny around goals. Does she replace Gaby Colvin who will miss the entire season 7 due to an ACL?

Yeh, only 19. Lots of upside, strong and confident.

Funny, I just quoted your post in the VFLW thread. Yes, expecting the Wales twins will thrive at their respective AFLW teams. Looking forward to meeting them against the Dees.

Lucy has been selected by Hawthorn AFLW at pick 22 and Stephanie by Essendon at pick 32. Good selections those. Expect them to do well.

Hmmm, Meggs was watching 7 news too. He also read this in the Mongrel Punt report on our game yesterday: Angus Brayshaw will be the recruit of the year in 2023. Mark it down now. He has not signed with the Dees and likely won’t, but whoever gets him is getting something special – a bloke who can play anywhere and do it well.

Meggs was in a corporate box tonight with mostly WA supporters. The Weagles supporters are a mostly disinterested lot in 2022 but the Freo ones are convinced they are getting Dogga and Gus (though they couldn’t recall his name)… Luke, the force is strong with this one…what a game!

Yes, Meggs forgot about Caris. Both Caris and Lucy Wales average 12 disposals per VFLW game and Maggie is ahead on hitouts (is anyone taller than her?) but Lucy averages more marks, tackles and scores per game.

Thanks @Dees_In_October really appreciate your reporting. The Wales rucking twins, Lucy and Stephanie, have impressed at VFLW level and wondered whether you think we might recruit one to understudy Lauren? Gillard seems like a natural tall back, reads the play well like a defender and has good kicking skills. Campbell is being developed as as a forward. Zanker is often thrown into the role but is better as a mid onballer. Parry has gone.

Good effort Werridee. Some thoughts: prefer to see Fitzsimon included, Paxy is better on a wing these days, West is only gonna get better, high hopes for improvement in Gillard. We have a strong group and will be amongst the top teams again.

Swans are well on top

Promising highlight reel. Reads the play well as good defenders do and has nice hands.

Is Goldie returning for this 2nd 2022 season?

Appreciate the nice report D_I_O, thank you. Meggs was also impressed by Wales and Gillard does her best work as a tall Harris Andrews-style back. Gosh, Eliza W was in everything. A contested footy ball-magnet with really good hands. If she could just master kicking the footy, she could become an AFLW star. Hmmm, the Pies will be a tough contest for Casey. Have they announced the game details yet?

Weidemann - never looks likely (unfortunately)

Is there any link here to the form drop off of his best mate Rivers?

Geelong need to get out of neutral cos the media might be onto something 😎

Kolodjashnij having a great game today. Knocks out Jack Higgins (subbed out with concussion) then follows up his good work slamming captain Steele in to the Marvel concrete damaging his ACL. Makes up for him missing targets. Saints look ordinary, don’t they? Meggs was surprised they got so much media praise last week for their 38 point loss to us.

Yes, Parry looking elsewhere is not surprising. Where is she going? TRex is joining Hawthorn, having come out of retirement.

Daisy was such an important contributor to our successful year. Not a bit surprised with her decision to play on. She inspires her teammates with her actions and we all hope she can lift the premiership cup before she retires🤞

CP5 speaks well doesn’t he

Most definitely

They are too good. Expansion will bring them back somewhat.

Nice goal from Ponter

Good goal Kate!
