Important news guys...


Sacrilege!

Tayla Harris is due to make her VFL Women's debut for the St Kilda Sharks this Sunday.

http://websites.sportstg.com/round_info.cgi?c=1-118-0-437831-0&pool=1&fixture=124935318&a=SELECT

Game is at 2pm at Main Oval, Melbourne University (Tin Alley, Parkville).

For an added twist, in the same game ex-St Kilda Sharks (and Collingwood forward) is due to make her debut for Melbourne Uni!

 

[drunkill]

Announcement of her second fight. Pre-season begins sometime in November so hopefully a month a bit of recovery is enough.

 

[drunkill]

And she won it, thankfully it seems she is uninjured.

 

[Mr_Plow]

Not sure if there is a reach advantage there.

 

[Jimmae]

Once again, what is the range of these weight divisions...

Once again, what is the range of these weight divisions...

Well she is a middleweight
According to Wikipedia, the middleweight division is contested above 154 lb (70 kg) and up to 160 lb (73 kg).

Unless if differs for women?

It seems the divisions are broader (7 kg spread) for Women's amateur and Olympic boxing, but this is a professional bout, yes?

I guess the other woman is built like a brick house?

Short video of Harris explaining her move to Melbourne (and Carlton)


Let us all hope she really does love the club and doesn't move onto Richmond in 2020 when they get a team, she does seem to love them and Dusty.

I reckon she might get bored of Dusty when she listens to him speak, more specifically when she realises she didn't tune out his sentences so much as they only consisted of 1-3 words.

 

[drunkill]

I dunno, she seems to love him and when their team joins they can offer her more money or captaincy. Oh well, as long as she helps win us a flag or two.
