AFLW West Coast Women 2021 - Discussion

[Miguel Sanchez]

It's a perfect hip and shoulder.

Absolutely pathetic by the club to accept the sanction.

I had a thought that maybe they’re just using at as an opportunity to send Swanny off for surgery, she’s looked quite limited with her shoulder for the last month or so.

Won't this leave her with a bad record? Or doesn't it work like that any longer.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

The more I watch the replay the more bemused I am that we wouldn’t challenge it, even on principle.

We can’t allow incidents like that end with suspensions. We’re letting the game down by not fighting the charge.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Pathetic by the VFL, and even worse by our club for not challenging that ridiculous ban

If dishing out 2 week bans for perfectly executed sheppards within 5m of the ball is what the VFL wants in womans footy, it's not going to grow or get much respect.

Pretty sure they don't want it in men's either.

If someone got cited for that bump in the mens comp there'd be a public outcry & VFL media w***ers (Whately, Robbo) would be talking about it ad nauseam.

It irks me that because it's the womans game, a joke decision like that can just be handed out and swept under the rug without anyone caring.



Jesus, not even our club gave a whimper.

 

[RookiePick]

Swanson tossed under the bus by HO.

Fold the club?

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Yeah that was a perfect bump. Can’t believe she’s been suspended for that. Weak by WC to not contest it either.

 

[Biggie]

Orme & SMac released from Claremont

Orme & SMac released from Claremont

And Devlyn and Pope out of Subi’s side.

Still no sign of Gilmore.

Devlyn has concussion I believe

She can’t take a trick.

Also Liddle not named for Peel, didn’t play last week despite being “omitted” not injured

Still no sign of Gilmore.

I’ve been trying to get more info on Gilmore but haven’t heard anything yet. Hopefully she’s ok.

Girl Swanson hit is out with concussion so there must've been a bit more to it I guess

Probably hit her head on the turf. She had no idea the contact was coming, but I don't think that's Swannys fault. Footy is a 360° game.

 

[bUCKET__]

Niamh back to the midfield pls!

That’s obviously no good, but was that potentially from her hitting the ground? Needs to be more aware than she was.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Possibly was a head clash, which would explain the high contact rating

Can you get a concussion from whiplash?

 

[Eaglesliveagain]

Can you get a concussion from whiplash?

Yeah cause concussion is about the brain just as likely to get it from brain hitting skull. Not a doctor, probably wrong.

 

[DanWCE]

Yeah cause concussion is about the brain just as likely to get it from braun hitting skull. Not a doctor, probably wrong.

I thought the same but wasn't sure. If anything it would have to be intense whiplash. Probably more like car crash than blind side tackle

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

I will be watching with interest the Dangerfield outcome from his choosing to bump and collecting head high. Per theEmma Swanson ruling, that’s worth a 2 week holiday.

Sit down and buckle in. I predict Dangerdick gets off free
