Girls are playing well here. GWS above us on the ladder but so far we're all over them

Critical changes this week with Lavey, Wakefield and even Yassir back in. Much better looking team.

Bit of agro in that quarter. GWS girls showing more fight than their men. But we're not looking intimidated and holding our own.

Good win. Last quarter we seemed to stop but had enough of a lead to hold onto the 4pts

It was a huge lead established. We start well interstate. Last goal of the first quarter seemed weird. The siren had gone. It was a better game by poppy Kelly in the ruck. Back line was as solid as ever. Mids good too. The forward line was effective. Goals and pressure..
I hope we play interstate again next week. Or at least away

The siren went after Lavey kicked it so the ball wasn't dead on the siren.

Well deserved win. Good to see Wakefield back, sorely missed. Bar GWS late surge, the team controlled the game well for most of the game, despite spurning some opportunities. Only downer was seeing McKenzie labouring under duress. Hope we don't break her. Odd all goals kicked at the grandstand end, none at the open end, despite no noticeable wind.

Credit to the team for recognizing & engaging with the crowd after the game. Greatly appreciated. Made quite a few youngsters days.

Hosking twins have been incredible. Tough as...
Hard as..
Be good to get another win but of Brennan isn't right maybe not play her. Have a look at houtsma? The fwd line is a bit tall. Although they all contributed a bit

Watched some more of the Tiger games and even though the skill level is improving there are flaws.
All the aflw teams have great difficulty at ground level.
They have little skill in picking the ball up cleanly like the men do.
Also, they seem to get caught a lot, as their evasive skills are not that good.
If the women want to play AFL then good luck to them and hope they really enjoy their sport.
This is not a criticism of women at all just the skill level in these games.
On the plus side the marking and kicking is very good.
