    AFLW 2024 Fixture

    Personally I only follow AFLW so fully consolidated social media would be annoying for me. And I think they get a lot of backlash from people who are only fans of the men's, like whenever AFL or 7's AFL page posts something about the women on facebook, it's a cesspool. But this leaves a weird...

    They perpetually have their back up, but they're right in this case. There's girls, clubs and the AFL putting out content, but they can't directly control whether the algorithms and commercial TV programmers deliver it to you. Always worth a conversation about what can be done better but have to...

    Where did they demand other clubs hand back their licenses? 'Hysterical' is a classically sexist way to criticise women that I wouldn't expect from an AFLW supporter like you... Is this just an anti-Hawks thing?

    Don't see why not. "Here are some fitness sessions we're running with the blokes this week that you can come and join in if you want to". With both clubs it looks far from the full squad at the sessions. I would think clubs try to stay well on the correct side of the...

    Per the CBA they are allowed voluntary unpaid use of the club facilities. The clubs are not allowed to ask them to come in.

    yeah, I guess in a way too much adulation of Kerr just makes her more similar to some of the iconic female athletes in individual sports that we've had before. What I like and hope for more of nowadays is greater interest in women's team sports like AFL and soccer. I feel like there's something...

    He seems like a general purpose nutter, twitter full of anti medical shite as well. On the positive soccer side, I hate the Sam Kerr ACL news but love that I'm being bombarded with it... newspapers writing up every little detail and having it all shoot to the top stories, really feels like a...

    That sucks, the stuff that came across my facebook (FB has obviously decided I like women's sport in general) was very positive and I was feeling happy that they didn't have to deal with as much bullshit! I guess the targeting works both ways - there are probably (a certain type of) men...

    All good stuff. I don't like the idea of doubleheaders as a common thing, but one round with lots of doubleheaders would be a nice novelty, and let people try out the idea (and realise they aren't going to want to go to that much footy very often imo)

    Wow... do we want the one kicking goals from outside 50, or the one who seems to be playing the game on fast forward compared to everyone else? Exciting kids.

    I liked Dallaway but the incoming sound good too. If the ruck turns out good that would be great, and Newman is a gun.

    Damn, I liked Dallaway's game last year. But Newman and Gee would be great pick ups. Didn't see much from Gee this year but I think it's just how GC used her, she seems like she could fit well into our game plan.

    She looked elite in the back half of the season, not so much in the front half. But same goes for most defenders (just ask those of us playing fantasy, jeez it's been a crapshoot back there), they'll look great for a few games and then disappear. Most of the defenders named in the AA are the...

    Can't imagine it right now, but maybe one day. The women's game takes up enough time as it is! I was wondering, I know some people said they didn't follow AFLW before this season. Did playing fantasy help you get into it? Did you watch more or enjoy it more? For me, though I followed AFLW from...

    351 in the end... highpoint was 250 in round 7 then downhill from there. After starting the season pretty slowly (5445 after round 2, after missing the Bowers late out and then captaining Prespakis when I hadn't learnt about looping yet) it was a pretty good run :) Now I can sit back and watch...

    Well Shevlin worked out luckily, despite Allen having a decent game again. Hurley eh not so sure right now. Ah well. Glad I lost Bonnici.... drifting far back again. I wonder if she's carrying an injury, but they're still putting her at CBAs (I think, didn't watch that much of the game).

    I think she was just being rested for most of the last quarter because the game was in hand. She's had 90%+ TOG the rest of the season. Interesting, I thought I must have had that already but nope. A couple rounds were close but held back usually by Prepakis getting a 96 or something.

    bit of panic because my usual loop is from North and didn't really think about it, fortunately have a Melb emergency on the bench since last week. Players no-one else cares about: Niamh Martin was on 18 about 3 minutes into the game and I was like oh goddamn wish I'd gone with that option...

    Wanted to do something more interesting than Bowers in, but now... hard to turn down the Bowers upside. For a real midfield cash grab, consider Hurley? Looked amazing last week, good matchup, Swans are going to go all out.
