How appropriate that one of her kicks went to Prespakis and ended up with the Prespakis goal.

Velcro working magnificently.

Bumping this one.

Came across a big family tree on Ancestry with Hugh Torney in it.

Went for a scroll and came across a player called Leslie Dayman, a Port Adelaide SANFL and Footscray VFL player.

Both Georgia and Hugh are distant cousins of Les Dayman.

BONUS: Les Dayman's grandson is Adelaide Crows legend Chris McDermott.

50 AFLW games for Silk



silk you should probs go in the my girl draft for this one

 

[Lore]

And a milestone game we actually won

50 games is 5 full seasons worth of footy, so roughly equivalent of 100 AFL games. Quite the achievement

I didn't notice Gee as much last night until maybe the last quarter (but I'm still getting to know the team as well). Some slick hands has Georgia.

 

[Pweter]

Last night I decided she's a more durable female form of Fantasia. Played well I thought.

Congrats to the best nicknamed player on our list.

Lore, laying claim to my girl

Late out against the Tiges last week, 3-week calf injury.

Essendon will be without Georgia Gee for at least three weeks after the forward suffered a calf injury last week.

Head of Medical Services Megan Smith said Gee is progressing well with her rehabilitation.

“Unfortunately, Georgia was a late out from our round seven team after suffering a calf injury at training,” Smith said.

“We are hoping to have her back running by the end of the week with the aim of a round 10 return.”

Naww, that's not fair for my girl

 

[Lore]

Amazing that we can lose someone of her quality and still play so well though. We will even better when she is back in the side

 

[Lore]

Good to have her back
