O’Dea definitely unlucky, but three good ins.

 

[TradeDraft]

O'Dea a bit Stiff

 

[Jen2310]

Guess someone had to come out from that backline. Bit unlucky.

 

[Naruhodo]

Anyone else heading down?

Yes Tarks, I'll be there. Hopefully not 43C like that time in Mandurah.

 

[3066]

O'Dea a bit Stiff

agreed.

 

[NonPhixion]

Schleicher named at Full-Forward.
What are her abilities like? is she a good kick at goal?

Predominantly a defender so not sure if it’s pre-gamemanship. Will be interesting to see what happens

without trying to offend anyone I think that in AFLW when players are named in a position they will more than likely play in that position. Don’t think there is the same mind games involved with team line ups

 

[jmac70]

Is it on FTA?

Yep! 7Mate in Victoria

Looking at the team composition I'd expect Molloy and Schleicher to swing around depending on how the midfield battle goes. If Freo get on top of our midfield Molloy will probably play down back most of the game.

I can't remember seeing Schleicher playing forward, however, I think she'll be a bit more mobile than what Alexander was.

A bit off topic but will we get to play Carlton at Victoria Park next year? The crowd last week was 7500 which Victoria Park can accommodate

That’s gold. Will need a four pack of IPA.

 

[Zzorse]

Will be watching here in Wisconsin via Fox Footy (WatchAFL). C'arn the Pies!

Good luck today Collingwood fans.

Saw this story in the Perth paper this morning and hope it's not an omen for your mob

Perth’s magpie paralysis problem confounding experts

Paralysed magpies are being found motionless at parks and properties across Perth — and even the experts don’t know why.

In all seriousness I think you're in with a decent chance against Freo - both teams looks great last week. Hopefully a good game with no injuries. Expecting both teams to make the finals regardless.

 

[unplugged]

Not sure if Freo have touched it yet to be honest...

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Umpiring absolute crap as usual!

 

[DinoSoar]

Sharni, you go girl!!

 

[danielnajdek]

Umpiring absolute crap as usual!

As per usual when you play in WA. Only reason they got that goal was because of a down the ground bull crap free kick.

 

[danielnajdek]

Another holding the ball against us.

 

[DinoSoar]

One thing they haven’t got the hang of yet is the quick kick to goal when tackled. Trying to break a tackle for a clear shot just doesn’t work, when you’re top of the square just bang it on the boot or kick off the ground.

 

[danielnajdek]

Turning it off. This umpiring is s**t.

 

[DinoSoar]

And then Freo does just that.

 

[barrackers]

Need a bit more composure that’s 2 goals we’ve given up through silly mistakes (1. Molloy diving on the footy & a free behind play in the and 2. the skipper playing on into the mark).

 

[Vicky Park]

One sided umpiring in WA. Never seen that before
