AFLW 2018 - Round 1 - Western Bulldogs v Fremantle, Sun Feb 4th, 1.30pm, VU Western Oval

[BallaratBulldog]

The class shown by blackburn!

 

[DexterTan]

Different looking outfit compared to last year. Much more composed going forward. Shame Lamb missed that goal. Issy Huntington looking good.

 

[kangaspurs]

Great quarter from the Dogs. Hopefully Brennan stays fit all season this year.

 

[Scary_Foot_9]

Huntington looked super good in Q1. Like having two Brennan’s in the forward line almost.

 

[Testekill]

Ominous signs to start

 

[In the Thirds]

Don't know why Kate Sheehan, just annoys the crap out of me.

 

[gordo2016]

If ever someone should be called "the package" it is Katie Brennan.

 

[In the Thirds]

Are there any ordinary players in the AFLW, there all superstars or jets according to the commenators.

 

[Testekill]

This is why Brennan was seen as the best key forward going into season 1, she just couldn't do anything due to being injured for almost all of it.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

We have hit more shorter targets than other sides.

 

[Testekill]

We have hit more shorter targets than other sides.

Our short kicking is better than our Mens

 

[Biggie]

Yikes. Dogs all over Freo!

 

[jarrod_island_doggies]

So we have three more games after the Blues vs Pies with better displays of skills, link up play, contested marking and (particularly at Casey yesterday) scoring. Yet these match day threads are tumbleweeds compared to the opening game's thread. Shits me that people who complain about how much the AFLW needs to improve (usually thinly veiled "make me a sandwich" MRA types I'm guessing) have nothing to contribute when the very thing they ask for is happening in real time.

Back on topic, how elite was that play by Blackburn for the third Dogs goal? Early in the second and they just look hungrier all over the ground. Freo have to lift like yesterday.

Been at the shops, got home and saw the score. WTF?

Everyone railing about Friday night should be forced to sit down and watch Melbourne-GWS.

Genuine question at this point, what happens to your percentage if you win and the oppo goes scoreless?

 

[DexterTan]

Get the ball to the 2 "B's" Brennan & Blackburn and Kearney and something good usually happens. Add Huntington and the future's looking good.

 

[kaiserchief13]

lol Freo

Never seen it in a big comp, but I'd assume they'd either put infinite or N/A

 

[Teen Wolf]

Freo uh-oh. One thing for the fringe players to be struggling, but their best players are noticeably having shockers too.

League is in its development stage. Commentators are calling the game as they should.

Your percentage would be zero. The next time you played and the opposition scored, you would then have a percentage.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Should score here Freo

Good kick, used the breeze

 

[jarrod_island_doggies]

Could be a tale of two halves...still think Dogs have the class to respond in the last if Freo get a run on

 

[Gydafud]

That is an ugly ball drop. But hey, if it works?
