Good couple of mins from Hore. Classy finishing

Yeah think the Purcell tackle looked there as a free but the rest pretty iffy.

Hanks really good today. Loved her burst through stoppages.

I think it was pretty alright early, but the pies players are doing a lot of appealing and complaining at the moment

Umps are meant to be neutral but you always get them off side whinging to them

I remember sabrina frederick bursting onto the scene with Richmond. But she's always kinda just been this just okay ruck and not much else despite her early showings up forward

And Brisbane before that!

I have like no recollection of her time at Brisbane

I think she was one of their two marquee selections, from memory (with Harris) - and then was AA in the first season.

Crowds built up a little, but the double header helps

Although i'm certain no Pies have shown up. And that totally existent thread is really exploding right now

I tuned out after we got robbed in the last game against the dogs

Think her size made her a very hard match up early days but as the game got faster/required more fitness she hasn't been able to keep up bar the odd cameo here or there

Anyone know what is going on with Edo atm. I know she had an injury earlier this year, but she seems way off the pace and a shadow of the leading goal kicker of last year. Or has she been pinch hitting more in the ruck due to the Pearce injury and not spending as much time forward.

DL.

That burst of goals late made up for a very unimpressive first half of the second quarter .

Seems to be roaming up the ground a bit more and we're tending to leave Bannan or Campbell one out. She does seem a bit down from injury but i think she's been okay and building back slowly, it's just unfortunate there's no more season to keep building with

We've got more talls who are showing a bit forward (Gall and Campbell) which takes the focus off her/cramps space. Bannan playing more tall/as a leading fwd too.

Our team generally seems very tall with Watt/Gillard/Taylor down back too.

 

[DemonLord]

Would be funny to overtake the Dons on %, then have them draw with the Blues and miss the eight by % only.

Kinda similar with us with Mifsud. She was hard to match up on and still will always be a favourite of mine. But once the league evolved a bit more professional she tended to look a lot slower

Elise O'Dea like that too. Remember a few games she dominated in early years in the guts and forward, but couldn't keep up with the newer players coming through.

 

[PerfectFooty]

Oh yeah the arm bands are a expected but nice touch

 

[PerfectFooty]

Kellie really loving the words "Knuckles" and "Skittles" today

 

[PerfectFooty]

A little poor there to leave your opponent and then not impact the ball

Sometimes I think she cops stick unnecessarily but she's been terrible with getting names right today

Was sad we didn't get to see Mifsud play for longer.

Agreed, i think she's actually okay. But she does have some bad showings.

 

[jhong]

Yeah lets not talk about the game commentators , just waffle on about crap.
