Underwood said the fixture has been scrapped.
Why is the country bowing to The clown from WA?

We are 5 years away from seeing a competitive/winning side.
We might go 3 years without a win.
We losing by an average of 4 goals. Thats 10 goal thrashings in the AFL.
I would just get rid of all those big time signings and just keep on bringing in new girls.

We obviously have some of the building blocks in place but too many players who can't reliably do the percentage things at this stage. Marking wasn't as good as last week but Melbourne was better than Brisbane.

Just looking at the stats as the roll across the screen and we matched them almost everywhere, apart from kicking efficiency and essentially tackles outside of 50 (our inside 50 tackles were very good). Both of those I think are in line, dispose of it badly and you invite pressure. Kicking efficiency was 48% which is poor and that was evident from watching it. If we can improve that, then as you say we've got some of those building blocks. Definitely reckon we are wasting Brennan playing as a forward with our inside 50 delivery, she needs to be involved a lot more through the midfield.

Unfortunately we have 2 teams in WA and unless they are kicked out of the comp they don't have much choice. Really need those 2 teams to relocate

lost fluency the longer the game went on. Don't know if lack of confidence or awareness but we always took a step or 2 more & went into trouble rather play, take 1st instinct.

Our leaders are overrated, our coaches are beginners and our recruiting/management is amateur hour. May as well hand Kate Sheehan a couple of 100k in cash each year and get her to flush it down the drain.

I guess we should be thankful our initial proposal of an all-Aboriginal team didn't get up. Haven't noticed many/any Aboriginal girls in the first two games and assume the team would've been less competitive than this one.

Your 2 better skilled players up fwd getting cold while we continue to struggle to get it out of defence in the 3rd.

We have to find a way to use Brennan better. 6 disposals and no marks is a complete waste of her talent.

Watched a bit.
Conti has some moves and looks a step ahead of the rest.

Effort was really good for most of the game and the attack on the woman and pressure was pleasing I thought.

One positive is the AFLW program is providing an outlet for those fans who get more pleasure out of bagging the team than seeing it be a success, after a lean few years for them.

Yep, zips excelling at it.

Looks like she's trying too hard to me. Going at a million mile an hour and getting ahead of where she should be. By my rough count she dropped 3 or 4 marks up forward today just by hitting the ball too hard.

I wrote this after rd1. KB can play, no doubt but she is not a key forward. Too easy to beat in the air and they double team her all the time and the oppo clears the ball way too easy with no pressure from KB
I would play her starting at CHB then play a kick behind the play wherever the ball goes. She will dominate in that role and we will start getting some better ball going inside 50.
I still can’t work out why they haven’t changed her role with the clear evidence KPF isn’t working.

Its hard to watch mate.
Either give us the same concessions GWS & GC got when they entered the comp or start us off in a lower league till we are competitive and skilful enough to watch.
These displays won't attached Richmond supporters.
3 goals in 2 games. Seriously ive seen under 7's kick more goals.
