They have always had a vague special permission exception written into them, which I presume is what has been granted here with the Woods signing.
I’ve heard the overall squad this year isn’t quite as strong as last year, outside of the few from champs and some young ones, the depth isn’t quite as good. Is that right?
Im gonna say yes.
Also kicked one out on the full from in close on a sharp angle early in the third quarter and bounced one wide of the behind post in the fourth. So, had at least ten attempts at goal in the game! The Geelong defenders, who are probably still having nightmares about Amber Clarke from the weekend, will have to deal with Goldsworthy when she's forward this coming weekend.
Yep could have had 7-8 easily. Throw in the fact she spent a fair bit of time in midfield, it really was a remarkable performance.

I was at the double-header today. The Bushies-Falcons was a close one. Very unlucky the Bushies couldn’t close it out, but Dowling stepped up when needed, without her Falcons don’t get close. Especially losing Ash Van Loon in the first quarter.
I was heartbroken for the Bushies. I assume they've never beaten Geelong in this comp before, given the powerhouse they've been. I'll be really interested to see how you do votes for this one. Tough job. A lot of standout performances.
Possibly not. Bushies went undefeated in the inaugural season where there were like five games (2017 I believe). Calder (with Conti, Molloy, Dargan) was awarded the premiership on percentage, but that was Murray’s best year.
Well, there you go. Bushies beat the Falcs on April 7, 2017. G Goldsworthy in the bests for Murray.
Yeah great return. Basically played a half mid, a half forward (60-40 M-F). Went forward in the last term and almost won North the game. It’s why she’s #2 on my board.

Stats wise Taylor has been more impressive this season, and honestly after Ham in the VIC group you could have almost any order for the next 5-6, but I think Scott's new found unselfish approach to her gamestyle is perhaps hampering how others are viewing her, I reckon I've seen her hand off near every possession she's had in the forward half this year. That said if she can't find the right balance she's certain to slip, but hopefully being the focal point for Country will see her get back to snagging a few a game.

Ridiculously, Centra is already a favourite to watch of Pie 4 Life. Plenty of really good 06ers about, Mahony (Chargers), Howley and Morrissy (Falcons), Field (Jets) are others that have really impressed me early on. Chargers have a few that performed really well in their futures matches that I'm excited to see come through, but I think it speaks to how quickly junior girls football is improving that these girls that are 15/16 (and in Ella Stoddart's case, 14) are already some of the most impressive prospects in the league
I'm pretty sure that's what Searle was having a crack at after the Saints lost to North last year. She copped a bit after that, but it does seem incredibly odd to have one of the perennial finals contenders get a free first round pick every year. It was one thing when the Tassie girls used to train separately, but they don't anymore. Even then, I can't understand why North haven't at least been subjected to some sort of bidding system.I'd have Claire Ransom higher than Sophia Hurley & Paige Scott
It's criminal that North Melb get a free hit on her
