Autopsy AFLW Round 2, 2022 (S7): Hawthorn v St.Kilda

[StFly]

Got a bit lucky that quarter with those repeat I50's, Hawks built a lot of good chains that just fell at the last hurdle.

 

[Munga]

Yeah they are all over Georgia and dragging it in but free kick count is already 11-2 our way

Yeah the Hawks just don't give a sh*t, tackling Patrikios without the ball, pushing in the back... the umps gave up paying them in the end. It's BS.

 

[Saint Kidding]

Half Time
Saints: 5 - 5 - 35
Hawks: 1 - 2 - 8

Goals:
Jess Matin 2
Caitlin Greiser 2
Kate Sheirlaw 1

Defence holding up strong, hopefully we don’t have to rely on that for another half.

Hawks had the last 8 inside 50s. We lost shape in the forward half.

 

[Munga]

Channel 7 need to update their ladder. It's a top 8, not a top 6.

Ah I was wondering if that changed - have been watching a few women's games but honestly paying no attention to anything further so I'm pleased they've changed that. Who knows? We might get our first taste of finals action this year lol

 

[saint66au]

Hawks are pushing players behind the footy, theyve always got a couple spare when we go inside 50

 

[St Kilda Death]

Yeah hawks getting numbers around the stoppage relying on a quick one out the back but we are keeping numbers outside the contest to mop up.

 

[St Kilda Death]

Umps obviously had a good look at that free kick count at HT and didn’t like it.

 

[Saint Kidding]

Nicola Stevens!

 

[George]

We're 26 points off top spot

 

[Saint Kidding]

Shierlaw!

 

[St Kilda Death]

Hawks have really made it a dour contest since Qt. Only goals coming through turnovers.

 

[SaintBilly]

Nicola Stevens!

My wife is so pissed we got her. One of the best moves our club has made in years IMO

 

[SaintBilly]

We're 26 points off top spot

Surely we're second right now? Or Collingwood still ahead?

 

[St Kilda Death]

Nicola Stevens!

Been a good pick up.
Upgrade on McCarthy.

 

[BrutThough]

Shierlaw has equaled her highest season total of 6 goals in 6 quarters.

 

[St Kilda Death]

Only 2 games in but I’m seeing a lot of improvement in Burke.
Looks like she worked hard in the off-season

 

[George]

Surely we're second right now? Or Collingwood still ahead?

Top 3 right now is Geelong Brisbane St.Kilda

We're 2 points off 2nd and 18 off 1st.

Oh yeah forgot about Geelong - I was half hoping Freo wouldn't score to get the lowest score in AFL/AFLW history - we'll have to share it then.

Handy break - 2-0 start for the first time in this competition ever but let's see how we stack up against the pre season flag fancies in Melbourne.

Just quietly though, how bloody good are Brisbane looking?

 

[Saint Kidding]

Three for the G!

 

[George]

We are 2nd, 2 more goals and we've got top spot
