4 goals down, not looking good! Has Roberts being out killed us this much?
Had the ball taken out of our possession in the goal square three times by a howling decision and had one goal taken off the board for another howler.

We’ve been absolutely hosed here. They’ve had a massive dip. Missed a few shots, none that were absolute gimmes but over the course of a game need to jag one of those.
 
Can't watch it, nor listen to it, but I can see y'all going off at the biased umpiring - is it that bad?
Sydney have 42 points and one of their goals came without a free or 50.

All good.

Played their ass off. A few missed shots they’d want back, nothing horrendous but one or two extra over the course of a game they’d need to have converted.

Would have liked the three goalsquare balls and the goal we kicked that got wiped for hurt feelings to have stayed live, might have stolen it even without Roberts. Percentage still handy enough.

Win and in vs Carlton, going to thump them if we play like this.
 
Again, not enough midfield. Painter's a good forward, but doesn't yet have the tank or speed for the middle. Bushby was out (and not that great anyway) Britton has hands like solid lumps of iron, Hooker's so much slower these days... Lewis was good, but with Ella out, it's just way too hard.

Kavanagh was a bright spot,but as we've said, she's not quick enough either at this point. And once again, we look like we don't have a ruck. Sigh.

This is why I'd rather not take Eden Zanker, and use our top picks in the draft. Still not enough quality in the middle.

Disappointing to waste a chance to seal a finals spot, but thought we played well against good opposition. Once again converting inside 50 our biggest issue. Destiny still in our own hands assuming Carlton and or Freo don't smash the biggest victory record this weekend.

Hope those associated with the club can learn a few things from Sydney regarding the game day experience too. Would love to be able to turn Leederville into something similar going forward.
 
I did the ladder predictor and if we beat Carlton narrowly (I put 10 points) then Adelaide have to beat Freo by about 50 and Sydney have to beat Essendon by about 60 to pass us in percentage. So most likely if we beat Carlton we can still host a final.

Assuming St Kilda lose to North, if they win next week against the Dogs they could finish as high as 4 but more likely 5, and if they lose they may well miss finals altogether.
 
Umpiring truly awful, completely killed us multiple times. Worse, our fumbling and panicked disposals. Rentsch needs to find a way to steady herself a bit, the number of times her speed and aggression got her to the ball first only ro run over it or fumble was astonishing.
Franklin shouldn't play again. She teases with the occasional fine lead and strong mark. But, if she isn't leading into space for the obvious kick, it looks like she truly has no idea where to go or what to do. If we can get Zanker, it's a deal we need to do.
