VFLW 2023 Southern Saints

[George]

2nd half underway. 40 minutes to go girls!

 

[George]

Slater goals from directly in front to put us 23 points up.

Saints 4.5.29
Demons 1.0.6

Couple more and it could be lights out??

 

[Munga]

Man we are so disciplined, don't give anything away and position our bodies in the best spots.

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

good to have some positivity these days

 

[George]

Kearns hacks it off the ground for another!

Saints 5.5.35
Demons 1.1.7

25 minutes to get to the GF!

 

[George]

Gee Slater is a decent player, wouldn't mind her in the senior side.

28 points up with a quarter to go...

Gee Slater is a decent player, wouldn't mind her in the senior side.

There are so many solid and well drilled players there. My only thought is how big is the gap to AFLW physically/pace?

 

[Munga]

Shut up shop here, got Dees working in a phonebox.

I've said it before, we a very well drilled. Dale must be good coach. We might get done by the Bombers AFLW side next week, but this season has been a huge success.

 

[George]

We're into the VFLW Grand Final and will take on Essendon next Sunday 12:15pm at North Port Oval.

Game will be televised LIVE on Channel 7 too.

Well done to the girls!

 

[no1saint66]

Amazing work. A nice spark of joy in a horrid few weeks.

 

[BrutThough]

Fantastic performance. Won easily.

Going to be huge underdogs in the GF. Essendon have been incredible all season but we are the only side who has been able to challenge them so we aren't without a chance.

 

[CrowdedHouse]

Just a reminder - besides the fact the game will be on WARFRadio.com as well, and 89.1FM at the ground (cheap plug) - that it will be FREE ENTRY into the Grand Final this year.

So if the long range weather forecast of 14c and a dry, cloudy day holds, make your way down to Port Melbourne to watch.

 

[Munga]

Great to see the senior Saints out there cheering them on too!

 

[George]

Essendon undefeated this year with 2 draws which is a bit odd but in low scoring games it's more likely.

One of their draws was against us, the other time we played them we lost by 10pts. Closest anyone has come to beating them all year.

I'd say they go in heavy favourites but I wouldn't completely disregard us as a chance

2022 rebel VFLW Grand Final this Sunday

Essendon and Southern Saints are vying for premiership glory when they meet in the 2022 rebel VFLW Grand Final at ETU Stadium from 12:15pm this Sunday July 3.

www.afl.com.au

In the Bombers last match they fielded 7 AFLW players and 3 former AFLW players. I wonder how many they'll cheat with field this time. We had zero last week, all VFLW listed players.

Considering the spiel about the VFLW competition and state players and prize money on offer etc... I find it a little sickening that Essendon can field so many AFLW players to pinch it all. But hey, we know about that club's integrity. They're dying hard for some positivity at that club that they'll field half a side from the grade above! At least the Demons did the right thing recently.

Geez it would be sweet if we win this.

You took the words out of my mouth with the last line there. It will be so sweet if we win this premiership. They've completely dominated sides all year, it's borderline cheating for mine. Nothing like an underdog story. Reckon we can give them a good shake too, we have done well against them both times already this season.

Bit of space jam about it

Congrats to Stuart, drafted to St Kilda. Hopefully Hannah is allowed to play in this Grand Final!!

 

[Munga]
