CBomb is the only one who can perhaps blame injury for missing out, as perhaps without the hamstring early in the Geelong game she’d be 213*17/14=259 votes as well!

EDIT: the above is wrong. CBomb would have got at least 5 votes against Geelong just for turning up.

2nd - Alex Morcom (242) - 17 games

I was just about to sharpen my pitchfork @theDJR, but since it’s cool with “Pip”, we instead pop the top off a cold Guinness Extra Stout and celebrate Eloise Ashley-(“Hanging with Ms”)Cooper’s solid year. :beer:

I’m happy for Ashley-Cooper, but on the wing?

Bwahahahahaha!

One of those, we got jammed (especially having to put the four North players in) and had to find a spot (Pete W talked me into - buck passed!).
Like Tara Bohanna (Saints) on the bench, we had too many similar in her spot.

Soooo… um, did the umps get it right this year?

Given I roasted for them for having CBomb almost win in 2019, and barely scrape into our club top ten…

When it comes to the BnF and our girls finishing high - of course the Umps got it right!

Interview: “Do you still have aspirations to be on an AFLW list?”

Ha.
