AFLW AFLW 2022 - Round 6

[blueiris]

Anything going on at the Lions? Farquharson out with an illness but named as an emergency. I don't think I've ever seen that, a player that can't play but still listed. Are they short for numbers?

Probably rested but could be a late in

I'm still not convinced North are genuine contenders at the moment, the midfield and defense are looking solid and holding the opposition to low scores (only Adelaide have past 30), but our forward line is still inconsistent and inaccurate. We are getting the ball in our forward 50 often enough but we are entering without system and rarely to the advantage of our players. Once we can fix that up I think we are a good chance but at the moment it is frustrating watching us keep the ball in our forward 50 for five minutes and getting only a behind or two.

Feel similar about the Dees. The defence has been very solid, and the accurate kicking game is great to watch when it comes off. But teams have worked out it can be stopped by high pressure so every game is turned into a scrap and we have been terrible at converting chances.

 

[Shai]

Xenos is dangerous. 3 tackles from her and 3 opps heads driven into the ground, only got penalised for 1.

 

[Teen Wolf]

Not really. The final score was kind to Cats. Suns dominated most of the game starting with almost double clearances. Suns were harder at contest, dominated inside 50.

Yes and St Kilda have had 20 more disposals to half time, have kicked far more accurately, and therefore deserve to be in front. But it's also fair to say Brisbane are blowing it.

When the Cats put the right players on the ball, it looked like a different game. Otherwise the Suns did indeed dominate, though saying as little as that doesn't actually explain why it unfolded the way it did.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Every single game, the women take shots from too far out or ridiculous angles and everyone in Australia knows they can't kick a goal from where they are
It is incredibly undisciplined and selfish.
Wtf are the coaches telling them?

Probably that if there’s no better option, to back themselves in.
Improvement doesn’t come from ignoring the problem after all.

 

[Teen Wolf]

You never see da men take low percentage shots, purely a weakness restricted to women.

 

[blueiris]

Daks didn’t look happy feel she misses next Thursday night game due to concussion but will be replaced by Zimmey

Not sure what St Kilda vs Lions game has to do with Suns vs Cats. Watching the game the last thing that would come to my mind is that Cats blew it. As Montagna said Suns dominated in every aspect of the game. Yes, Cats scored first 2 goals, first after nice build up, second from Suns turnover. After that it was all Suns until the last quarter, when you could Cats had better of the game. The goal after siren made it look closer than it was. I liked Cats not giving up when they were 24 points down at 3 quarter time and still fought hard.

cetainly doesn't help with some of the grounds they play at, wind tunnels like Casey Field and even here are not needed in AFLW.

Teen Wolf has it in the Lions every time he comments he finds something interesting to say about them I have no idea why he bought the Lions into that conversation though that’s a new one

 

[The Nostradamus]

Melbourne should beat the lions easily next week

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Fairly disappointing result.

 

[cmndstab]

Saints had their chances, just not quite clean enough up forward at the end. Fun match to watch as a neutral though!

 

[blueiris]

Probably Brisbane would be playing they’re 3rd game in 8 days Melbourne basically has had a 8 days break

 

[samFFC]

WC vs Collingwood always makes me feel a bit dirty!
Would love the Suns in , so go West Coast? But yuck.

 

[samFFC]

Melbourne should beat the lions easily next week

Given the double up game for Lions, I agree.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Tbh even without it I rate them higher

 

[briztoon]

We’ll be running out of legs about the second quarter.

 

[Teen Wolf]

Watching the game the last thing that would come to my mind is that Cats blew it.

But it did come to my mind, having watched all of Geelong's games this season and seeing a steep decline in their performance on Friday night.

 

[blueiris]

We’ll be running out of legs about the second quarter.

We’ve only trained twice in 2 months due to Covid protocol hard work when you don’t get to train together

 

[Teen Wolf]

It's a pity Brisbane held off the Saints in that game, would've been nice to see the philosophy of picking athletes-cum-dud-players over terrific footballers (i.e. Jess Wuetschner) properly punished.

No it wasn't.
