Women's Footy Non Lions AFLW discussion 2024

[BrainOfMorbius]

At the very least, this is costing the Hawks some percentage, even if they win

Some obliging umpiring for the Hawks

Hawks-the Penrith of the AFLW

 

[MSB ROYS]

Adelaide probably have the best overall skills but only have a marginally effective game plan (or players who can't follow it). They turn the ball over a lot tonight, often to opposition players with nobody near them.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Every time I watch a Swans game and they call Sargent-Wilson, I think of this guy. Send help

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

"Bomb it long to the forwards, Sargent-Wilson!"

"Do you think that's wise, sir, they have failed to take a mark all afternoon."

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Suns being ripped off again

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Stolen the lead back! Come on Suns

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

DuPuy is a very solid player, taken some good marks today. Would love her in our colours

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Swans as a club hasn't won a game since 22 September

 

[dlanod]

I still don't get how the Suns only have one win. I really thought they'd be a contender this year.

And I just realised I'm sure I've posted the same thing about the men's team in the past, so maybe it's something in the water/meth.

Their girls have been the opposite of their boys, they started the season terribly and have improved a lot as it has progressed.

Dees about to do a Lions and win the AFLW flag from nowhere?

Dees about to do a Lions and win the AFLW flag from nowhere?

I watched Dees on the first round vs Geelong, they looked every bit a contender in that round. I was quite surprised how badly they fell down the ladder. If they return to top 8 it's not because they overachieved, I'd say they've finally found the level they are normally capable of.

Essendon with 1 behind in 3 quarters

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Anyone else death riding the Hoks tonight?

Always.

 

[iBeng]

Needed to ride harder

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Pies down narrowly to the Blues. Hard to see them avoiding the wooden spoon

 

[Grasshopper17]

Any views on who we want to win tonight? A Carlton win puts Melbourne into the finals while an Essendon win sees the Bombers sneak in.

A potential Semi Final opponent if things go badly for us tomorrow and next week.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Probably the Bombers. Dees are getting back into form, although you probably can't read too much into a thrashing of Collingwood.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Anyone else hearing rumours about Charlie Rowbottom wanting out of the Suns?

 

[Grasshopper17]

Probably the Bombers. Dees are getting back into form, although you probably can't read too much into a thrashing of Collingwood.

If Essendon's women's team wins a final does this count as "Essendon winning a final"?

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

If Essendon's women's team wins a final does this count as "Essendon winning a final"?

As written, yes. But opinions will no doubt vary on the matter

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

By my calculations, if we maintain our percentage tomorrow, any Hawthorn loss would see us move past them if Richmond scores at least 26 points. Less than that and it would need to be by 2 points or more.
