So in a game that lasted less than 2 hours, and in which she was carried off the ground and missed about half of the third quarter, she still got as many stats as the best mids in the AFL would get in twice as much game time.

Yep. Last night should be...

Was it confirmed what happened? Looked like minimum busted ribs the way she came off, if not punctured lung. Showed no ill effects when she came back on to boss the rest of the game

Dunno. Could’ve been separated instead of broken, that hurts like a bitch until it pops back in

 

[Beerfish]

Or reeeeally badly winded?

 

[Maddogm]

She talked about being winded after the game, but that could easily have been a deflection.

Cleared to play, ribs not damaged

Essendon midfielder Maddy Prespakis has been cleared of injury following a heavy knock during the Bombers’ round one clash with Hawthorn.

The 22-year-old was assisted from the field but shortly returned after, with an assessment clearing any damage to her ribs.

50 AFLW games!

And playing on her sister today too

What an incredible player.

 

[Pweter]

Maddy is on another level to most players in the comp. Knows where to go, times when to go, clean hands, brute strength, tidy disposal, and this one's for BrunoV, she absorbs contact effortlessly and releases her team mates.

 

[Lore]

Essendon supporting Nanas that raise Essendon superstars are the best kind of Nanas.

Wow. Maddy is another number 4 bomber legend.
Making herstory.

 

[ghostdog]

Change to the thread title is awesome.

Also, that tackle she got penalised for in the last quarter needs a gif.

 

[Lore]

pfft

 

[Maddogm]

That's the opposite of what I was expecting

 

[Lore]

 

[Pweter]

I thought the Conti one was worse, don't think Maddy had too many options given Hosking dropped the shoulder and tried to run through her.

 

[The Prosecutor]

What a ******* joke.

 

[Vindicater]

joke

 

[ghostdog]

That's crap. I've seen a handful of worse tackles already in the limited number of AFLW games I've seen.

At least we're playing WC, but losing Bannister and Prespakis in a week will tell.

 

[scythe]

We're appealing.
