sorry i was referring to Aishling.
But if Rowe is back in time, then i presume Aishling will be as well.

Braz will still be playing for the netball team, so doubt she will do both.

Oh, yeah I'm sure she will be back this weekend sometime as well.

Collingwood welcomes AFLW season seven fixture

Collingwood will launch its 7th season in the AFLW on August 25th

www.collingwoodfc.com.au

Quick season 7 fixture review:
2022 Ladder:
Adelaide = Home
Melbourne
Brisbane = Away
Kangaroos = Home
Fremantle = Away
Bulldogs
Carlton = Away
GWS = Home
Gold Coast
Richmond
Geelong = Away
St Kilda = Away
West Coast
New Teams:
Essendon = Home
Hawks
Port
Sydney = Home

2 Games against new teams
2 Games against 2022 bottom 4
2 Games against mid table
4 Games against ladder defining clubs with two being interstate against Brisbane & Freo.

Our season will probably come down to the last 3 games:
- Fremantle away
- Kangaroos following an interstate trip and 6 day break
- Brisbane away of another 6 day break

 

[keepswimming]

In a nutshell 3 winnable games to start, a 50 / 50 v Adelaide at vic park, some more winnable games against expansion sides and saints.
3 hard games in run home Bris, Freo, North.
I think a pretty good draw for us, gets us off to a good start hopefully.
No Demons, who i think will win the lot next year.

 

[MooreTreloar]

Fixture is decent considering we made finals the last few year and will be missing key layers for the season.

Would still like to actually play Gold Coast, but oh well.

does anyone know if the club will have an intra-club practice game in the coming weeks ?

you'd think so. Probably sometime in early august.

 

[ToonAussie]

you'd think so. Probably sometime in early august.

It's hard to do an intra-club with only 30 at most available players.
I think they have had the 1 inter-club game in other years.

30 is the only what they have on their lists in the aflw, so I'm not sure how they do it.

AFLW: Meet our new draftees

Hear from Charlotte Blair, Charlotte Taylor and Imogen Evans as the three of them settle into our Club.

[TheVillageIdiot7]

Must say i'm extremely disappointed with content from the AFLW so far.
3+ weeks to get a short video out about the new recruits? wtf is that?
nothing from Steve or Jess about our trading and recruitment strategy.
Nothing about pre-season or galleries so we can see how the players have come back to pre-season.

very very slack and disappointing.

The AFLW has been very much hidden behind the mens program to date.
Which whilst i fully understand this (in season for mens will always take precedent), if the club wants to grow the female brand, they need to do better than this.
Its basically zero content.
How are people supposed to get 'excited' about the upcoming womans season (and get to know the players) when there is zero content or excitement generated until after the mens programme is completed?

Do better!

Robbing Peter to pay Paul? We might be that desperate in the midfield, with our two champs out for the season. But who will take her role in defence?

I’m still p’d off that the new season timing and fixture means Bri Davey will effectively miss two entire AFLW seasons.

That was my exact reponse also when I read it.

Positive thoughts VP think how fresh she will be when she comes back look out

Well Davey and Bonnici will both miss the entire 7th AFLW season. Considering Davey was injured in January, and Bonnici in February, they basically miss 12 months of footy. Considering they will be back August 2023, it's a longtime from their last games in AFLW, so both should be back fit and very eager to play.....
