Women's Footy GWS Giants - AFL Women's

[Gigantor]

Those of us who regularly drive up and down the Hume will be very familiar with the little township of Holbrook, one of the last to be by-passed, but still a good stop over for the bakery and submarine.

The primary school has always had goal posts up, so it must be inside the Barassi line, even if it's only 90 min south of Gundagai.

Good effort by Alyce Parker to make this squad.

Hi all,
I'd like to promote and advertise a forum I created that is solely dedicated to GWS fans and members. I noticed that the Giants didn't have a forum like all the other AFL clubs so I have finished constructing one at giantsarena.boards.net
Registration is completely free and like BigFooty and other footy forums, it is an open forum to discuss and interact with other members.

If you could register and get this new GWS forum started, that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Dude,

You've done the post - no need to do it in every thread.

You're just going to start pi$$ing people off.

Lions won by 16 in the end 3.10.28 to 2.0.12. GWS mids just couldn't seem to get the ball forward of centre for the vast majority of the match. Wet and windy conditions.

Both sides were very physical. Lions just seemed better around the stoppages.

There's a general expectation that the Lions (and Queensland women's footy more generally) is much further progressed than where we're at, so from that perspective, it's not a terrible scoreline for us.

Yep the Barassi line is around Tarcutta or a little bit south of that - about 40 minutes drive North from Holbrook to Tarcutta.

Look for the sign that says Barassi line, bit like the Mason Dixon line.

Without wanting to be funny, there is no reason a progressive council couldn't make a quid out of it, open a servo, eatery etc , it would draw tourists like the dog on the tuckerbox which is a little bit further North.

Even more stupid timing than the season launch.

4:30 on a Tuesday?

Yes, if you don't have Fox Footy you can watch a doco about the Road of Bones and a fishing show.

I think seven only committed to two games per round, which is crap.

They only committed to one. There is only 2 the first round, the opening game and Saturday night. The rest of the year is just the Saturday night game.

I sit corrected. Still crap.

Is it going to be streamed on afl website? I have some issues with the app after updating but will sort?

So one out from the full back line, one from the full forward line. I was wondering where they'd take the two players from. I suppose you can always move a mid forward or back if you get on a roll, or the other side structures up differently.
