AFLW 2022 Rnd 1: Non-Essendon Games

Pearce has a messed-up eye from the ground headbutt?

26-38

That’s a @handypoint

BOOM!

Awesome tackle.

Get ■■■■■■, ump.

Melbourne had a quality pre-season (even beat us), and Adelaide did not.

Paxman calm and composed to seal the game.

Dees about to win 6.8.44 over the Crows 4.2.26

The Suns waited till there were 4 minutes left in the game, then went BANG-BANG!

At least it reduced Norf’s percentage, a lot.

Norf 6.4.40 defeats Suns 2.2.14, and move to top of the ladder.

The Clarkson effect

Wooden-spooners WCE lead newbies Port 14-2 in the second quarter.

Gemma Houghton is the answer to “who kicked Port’s first AFLW goal?”

West Coast holding on 14-9, at home.

Very soft fifty to Port; the ump who paid it clearly didn’t notice they had already played on and run AT the passing Eagle.

2.3.15-2.3.15 at halftime.

It is urinating down.

Sydney got squashed, so we are the only newbie team to win.

For @Catherine_Lio, ex-Bombers named for today:

  • Snell is an emergency for the Dogs
  • Hetherington FB for GWS, paired with a (not ours) Hicks. Mackrill on the ball.
  • Svarc HFF for the Bears, Anderson on ball
  • Prespakis middle for the Cats, Friswell on the bench
  • Yassir HFF for the Tigers

Imagine if someone had the ability to you know edit things.

The old lady of the AFLW is going alright:

(Mackrill with the clearance)

LOLz: Mackrill still knows how to antagonise and consequently draw a free when she gets attacked.

And then may have dropped Blackburn off-play.

EDIT: she bumped her very gently, and Blackburn milked it big time.

EDIT 2: common potatoes call it a “decking” after seeing the replay. Fark off.

Some excellent marking in this match.
