Game Day AFLW - West Coast visiting the Gold Coast

[Carbine Chaos]

Simmons is pretty useful by hand, hope she can transfer that to Lakay.

Swanson an absolute turnover merchant.

 

[Ochre]

Petrevski barely the best player in her family

 

[DanWCE]

Woeful ball use i50

 

[HoneyBadger35]

COMEBACK’S ON

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Suns have absolutely put the cue in the rack here.

 

[Biggie]

Nice work

However

ROBERTS RUCKING SEES MY ANGER REACHING HIGH LEVELS

 

[Ochre]

Should move the club to Dublin, would give us a better recruiting pool.

 

[Magnum27]

Whilst our girls skills and football brain seems lacking still, one thing you cannot fault them for is having a crack, hope the men are watching.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

AFLW needs to be played on smaller grounds if they ever want these scorelines to push up.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

I've lost track of the number of uncontested marks we've dropped today.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Would love to watch a training session and see how they handle a loose footy in a pressure free environment. I can’t believe the drop off from training track to on field is so pronounced.

Just lost a four on one on the HFF and had it turn into an inside 50 for the Suns.

 

[Ochre]

AFLW needs to be played on smaller grounds if they ever want these scorelines to push up.

Every AFLW match should be played at North Sydney Oval

Every BBL/WBBL/ODD game too while we're at it.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Yep. Here comes the obligatory last second goal.

 

[Ochre]

Rowbottom is more solid than her brother, and she's 19. Going to be a freak

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Awful performance. Back to square one.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

AFLW needs to be played on smaller grounds if they ever want these scorelines to push up.

Ideally yes, but the Eagles just went from kick out to the attacking side of the centre square in two kicks.

Kick out, marked, handball to a runner and kick. No bounces, no wild sprints in there. One mark, one handball, one kick and we’re almost inside 50.

It’s doable if there’s some semblance of footy played, other clubs manage it, the approach of “dunno, when you get it you might as well just kick it long I guess” is a bit of a tactical bust from Prior.

 

[DanWCE]

Anyone for shorter quarters? Would make this an honorable loss

 

[Dark Sharks]

Don't worry gaiz, we'll be fine next year once we draft Ella Roberts and have an actual target up forward.

 

[Bacchus]

Not tall enough, not strong enough, no structure, no game plan, no coaching initiatives.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Rowley 4 disposals

Cameron 3 disposals

Bartlett 4 disposals

Western 1 touch.

Bennett 2 touches



Thankfully we're super fit this year.

 

[bUCKET__]

Yep. Butter chicken coming up ooh and look at that bourbon in a glass

Oh haha I’ve got butter chicken as well hahaha

Beef Vindaloo and scotch here.

 

[DanWCE]

Beef Vindaloo and scotch here.

Man curry!! I've gotta make something palatable for the entire family

 

[Monocle]

I am done with Cameron.

Last quarter, on the outer wing she leads the race to the ball, instead of putting her head over the ball to pick it up, she goes the " lazy cutsie football" kicks off the ground ... and muffs if.

FFS when its your turn to attack the football..... you go for it.

So unfit, has been since she arrived at the Club.

Would much rather we give games to someone who will appreciate the list spot.


Other than that.

Out muscled and outclassed today.
Gold Coast did the basics better than us and thoroughly deserved the win.

Lots to still do in the educating of our girls, we play dumb football and it costs us.

Lakay coming on nicely as a footballer, I think she has a big future in the Game.

Over to you Michael Prior adjustments needed in the game plan, as our positioning around stoppages was second rate and left the door ajar for their mids to waltz the ball out with ease.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Surely the fumbles were because it was dusk in Queensland?

It was terrible.

Simmons clearly our best. Not really, but she does some nice things. Reminds me of Callum Jamieson, good second efforts and uses the ball well when she gets it, but that’s not often and she doesn’t win many hitouts.

 

[Bacchus]

The club is a joke atm.
No joy anywhere.
Wafl team is horrendous, womens team is pathetic and uncompetitlve - lucky to beat a team playing their first game at home last week, and the AFL team is likewise a laughing stock. Where is the accountability for this mess?
Who is going to do anything? Big Trev?
