John Cahill (10x SANFL premiership coach) said that Erin Phillips was the best 14 year old footballer he had ever seen - I think if the two had equal access from the same age to elite pathways and training, Erin would have come out well on top

What game were you watching? Yeah fair have a crack for my whinge, I opened myself up for that - but what favourable calls are you talking about?

Adelaide were poor today, but the *n umps were even worse Crows constantly pinged HTB when they either had no prior or got a clear disposal Chelsea Randall being completely hacked off the ball every time she went for a contest and not one free kick North could throw the ball whenever...

just watching those highlights - at .45secs, is that Anne Hatchard laying the huge bump? What an absolute body transformation from 6 years ago!

wow that's pretty bad - didn't realise that

Would have been interesting had they both played footy their entire sporting careers; either both in elite pathways that are available now, or if Erin had played local footy that Daisy did for her first half As it is, I don't think it's a controversial thought to suggest Erin's time in the WNBA...

You could make an argument that Ch7 deserve the official warning and please explain for disseminating the message infinitely more than Hosking did It's pretty funny, really

Hypothetical time! Brisbane and Melbourne clear top two, so I don't think this will happen - however, it's finals so who knows Say next week Brisbane win their QF and Adelaide knock off Melbourne, giving Brisbane and Adelaide home Prelims What happens in terms of seeding and home GF if...

Melbourne were way cleaner with their ball movement and Adelaide seemed like they drank a carton of red bull and played on at all costs to their detriment The umpiring though made it unwatchable

What was your honest assessment of the umpiring? Melbourne were cleaner and Crows too rushed but the umps made sure of it

it would have been nice if Melbourne had the chance to win that legitimately holy * could the umpiring have been any more lopsided and horrendous?

they really don't like Adelaide winning flags at all

Is there any reason why Richmond and Essendon have to play Dreamtime game in the women's aswell??

what's the knock on Prespakis in that sense?

Crows lost 8x Premierships, 2x AFLW player of the year and arguably the best player of the first 6 seasons - nah not 28 points worth Port now with 5 picks before the Crows

The secret herbs and spices formula for working out the compensation for losing players to expansion teams is clearly just AFL deciding to do some arbitrary leveling of the teams - the huge outlier being Carlton not losing and draft picks despite only losing two players

Ha I didn't even realise the extra "first round" pick was 28 It's a shambles - honestly reckon it feels like the last 4 clubs get a better shot at building a squad than the last two sets of expansions

it's an extra first round pick - but sure it could be called an upgrade it was a pretty crude table on my behalf, I did it rather quickly from what I could find I think the point of it though was there really was no logical 'system' employed by the league to work out compensation - Nothing...

ok so this is a crude table but this is what has happened from what I can tell - basically without any formula released to the public, this all looks like the picks were taken away/given based on what ''feels right'' based on how successful each club has been, rather than any tangible ''worth''...

I never found anything that actually explained how many "points" each player was worth that went to expansion clubs It was a pretty good way for the afl to just make sure Adelaide Brisbane and Melbourne didn't get a first round draft pick regardless of who they lost

you could almost argue the 4 last teams to join get a better shot at maintaining a squad than the earlier expansions

It is funny - % being big or not is entirely dependent on the original figure A 400% increase from $5 to $20 isn't in the same ball park as a 10% increase from $1000000 to $1100000 But you know, the girls are greedy 🙄

If Adelaide win, would Tayla Harris be in unique company (or in no company at all) having lost three grand finals with three separate teams against the same opponent?

I am assuming 'rebel' is the sporting house brand and they are sponsoring the league but it certainly looks odd without a capital letter indicating its status as a proper noun and rather makes me think Kerry Packer has returned to usher in an alternate women's footy league to rival the current...

Fair Deleted it

Weird OP - definitely warrants a thread but not sure what half the content in the post is about Absurd thing with Deni is she is an ICU nurse so about to throw away her job and footy career - I do wonder what other aspects of medical science she has rejected before in her job

well she wasn't even the first woman entered You'd imagine she will be inducted without much controversy by the time she is eligible

I hear ya mate Last night was the Crows first 'metropolitain Melbourne' game since 2019, and I think Casey Fields is scraping the definition of metropolitan - With the last minute fixtures I was unable to get off work for it - It is also legitimately easier to get to Kardinia Park than it is...

thankfully I think Erin will be done before Port join

* Port I'm happy with Adelaide having a monopoly on SA talent
