Man, Niamh Kelly got some stones on her. Loved seeing her going back and taking a grab with a defender coming back the other way TWICE today. Now that's courage for ya.

Niamh Kelly is like a cheat code with her pace. Also plenty of courage and her skills are improving every game.
What more can you ask for?

The girls looked so much better with the space Geelong gave to them. It was great to see the confidence start to show as they got the scoreboard pressure on.
The few times Geelong managed to tighten up the game and get numbers to the ball we looked very fragile again.
Promising signs but plenty of work to do.

Daniel Pratt seems to be very realistic about it all, as well. Admitted that if we'd played that well and lost it was still progress in the right direction, and we won't be defined by wins or losses in the next fortnight of games. The aim is to play more consistently across four quarters whether we win or lose.
He also offered up that we kicked 8 goals after quarter time which is more goals kicked after quarter time than the rest of our Q2-Q4 goals combined for the balance of the season. Haven't fact checked that but huge if true.

Gibbo was decent in the middle, which is where they should be playing her.
Grace Kelly has improved out of sight in the last three games, which she needed to coz she wasn’t offering much, However her sister has been great from the start.

Not even mine, someone’s screenshots from a group chat that somehow saved themselves in my phone.
The AFLCA votes are much more interesting. Coaches had A-Mac best or second-best on, but disagreed almost completely on the rest.

No but let’s pass that story around, we might get her to slip in the draft.

You have no idea how hard it was to resist the urge to screenshot that for later use.

I assume that was the huge shepherd late in the match, that didn’t even warrant a free kick at the time.
The club must appeal. Bump was not high, away from the play or anything wrong. They are effectively saying ‘can’t bump in women’s game’.
Rankin just wasn't expecting it. Her unawareness is why she pulled up a bit ginger, I reckon. That's got nothing to do with Swanny, though. The girls were laying shepherds all day and on this occasion the opponent didn't know the contact was coming and got s**t mixed. Probably got some whiplash. But it's clearly within the rules.
Wasn't high, wasn't late, wasn't a free kick.
Suspended.
Suspended.

Geez they’ve accepted it already. I’m stunned. It might have been the worst call to come out of the AFL today, and that’s saying something.
