AFLW #2 - Georgia Gee

I wasn’t that impressed with her first season with us, but she was good vs WCE and is one of our few legit zippy players.

She’d be in the best (if not top 2) long distance runners on our list and can sustain higher speeds of running longer.

Is 2km long-distance? Was not top 4 for us this year.

Nah. I mean during an actual training session / game.
Pretty sure she gets higher distance numbers and greater speed across that time.
I don’t think the AFL app tracks that data (not even on gameday). They have repeat sprint efforts and total km.

The 2k running trials are a decent measure but don’t always translate to the way footy is played. I usually take very little notice of it. Footy is more, high end sprint then jog, then relax, then go again, etc.
I’m actually not too certain how many km women do in a game. Men get to 14km (even a key forward) up to 16km (midfielders). I think I noticed 1 player got to 18km which is pretty nuts when you think about it. This removes walking pace from the data.

At a guess, women’s training sessions would be 6km to 8km of running.
