AFLW - game 7 vs Suns @ Carrara Stadium, 1pm Sunday 6 October 2024

We might need Melbourne to beat the Saints to avoid missing finals on percentage.

But week-to-week form may not be the big percentage impact there: we play Norf, they play the Bears.

Win 3 of the next 4 and % won’t matter.

Trying to not to count my chickens but I assume we are favourites against Bulldogs and FCFC, probably 40/60 against Richmond then will struggle against Norf. I hate this 11 game fixture but jeez it means every game counts even more.

I’d call Richmond a genuine 50/50 given it’s in Darwin.

G wants another EFC B&F: game-leading 28 disposals (also game-leading for kicks, given her more-outside role today), 7 clearances, 8 inside fifties, 4 rebound fifties.

  • G Clarke 9 marks (and 17 disposals and 4 inside fifties) , Gay 8, Gaylor 6
  • Prespakis 9 clearances, and zero frees in the second half (G got 2).

Was watching the game with Mum and she was saying the 7 commentary was biased to the Suns.

ESSENDON HAS NEVER WON IN DARWIN.

But I (alone) don’t rate Richmond.

But they’ve done surprisingly alright this year.

Georgia’s hands in close are elite. What are her ground ball get numbers? Again she is elite in this area i reckon. Her kicking isn’t the best but she’s clearly working as it has improved.

Gaylor is going to be an absolute gun. Our backline actually looks really balanced with Gay in there.

Good win; if we’re fair dinkum we win (which we did!)

How does the trade period work in AFLW. Can we just buy Norfs good players?

It works pretty similarly to the AFLM, now.

Also, I’d point out Norf had G, were horrendous to her, and she sat out an AFLW draft to ensure she would play for us (so contrasting was her experience with the two clubs).

Nans has been our best this season. All Australian?

Probably not (so far).

But I’m not sure there is anyone who does what she does better.

This moment was not captured on the broadcast… the power athlete is possibly making a point to certain critics.
