AFLW West Coast Women 2021 - Discussion

[Biggie]

Too much talent across the Sts team with our injuries , we are done for 2021.

2 wins and an improved style of play, plus two good players in 2022, we are going ok.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

It’d be nice to get Dowrick back next year as well. Not sure where she’s at.

Not sure there either.

She doesn't look footy fit at the minute tbh, so hopefully all ok on that front

Good season girls. The improvement pasts the eyeball test, and is reflected beyond Ws. We've gone from not seeing a game plan to seeing one and seeing it work. We've gone from seeing it work for half a game, to a full four quarter performance.

Good signs. Injury battered as well. I look forward to 2022 with a fully fit midfield.

Stand outs this season for me included Bowen, Lewis, Smith and the Kelly sisters. McCarthy was a great get, as was Ward to an extent, and Swanson was reliable as ever. Overall I feel we had a lot more players contribute this season which bodes well for the future.

 

[DanWCE]

Can we get Hooker some cooking lessons, an EatFresh membership or a set of steel toe boots?

Goes to show, players can improve and repay faith given a chance.

Thought we made a mistake getting her, but she found her role, and played it well.

Tips for the Best and Fairest?

Bowen seems the winner to me but the top 5 is pretty open. Maybe Niamh, Swanson, Smith, Grace? Bresland may have missed too much footy. Ward was solid, so a smokey? Lewis to snare a spot in her first season?

The fact it's much harder to pick this season than last is a great sign of development.

No room for Perera?

IMO

Bowen

McCarthy
Kelly N


Lewis

McCarthy and Kelly missing games will hurt their chances.

Bowen played all the games and is a shoe in IMO.

 

[Monocle]

Lewis best first year player.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Laurie a sneaky chance for top five just for being consistent and playing every game

 

[Ochre]

Is it the same system as the men's that heavily disadvantages players who miss games?

 

[Cursedsword02]

Wrapped for her, she really earned it.

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

Legend.

 

[Biggie]

Such great news that. Gun

Spewing i can't make it to the members sundowner, i'll be at Coral Bay.


Was planning on drinking too much and giving Bowen some pointers on her ball drop

Good thing that you cant make it, as she may well have been sober and made comment on your ball drop too.

Congrats to Bella Lewis who’s won the Club Champion award in her first year of AFLW!

Aisling McCarthy finished second. They must have changed the voting system because I don’t know how anyone could have beaten Bowen, but particularly McCarthy who missed multiple games.
