Will be played on a clown ground in front of Radio 3DJR and 237 locals. Fox Footy will probably tell to me to STFU again.
Yes, those arcs are 50m.

And WARF Radio will be there (but not me).

Sydney will be helped by the return of reigning best and fairest winner Sofia Hurley from a quad injury, as Cynthia Hamilton comes out with ankle and knee injuries suffered early in last week’s win over West Coast. As confirmed by Sydney earlier in the week, co-captain Chloe Molloy will miss the remainder of the season with a back injury.
Guessing this is just an administrative thing because we wouldn’t have enough players to top up otherwise?
For those who don’t follow the VFLW team, she is (was?) an 18yo Tasmanian U18 captain who joined us this year (and has re-signed for next year).
Mid/fwd, most obvious comparison is Dustin Martin style: get out of my way!
Play her, why not?
Forecast for Coffs on Saturday
Summary
![]()
Min 18
Max 26
Shower or two. Storm.
Possible rainfall: 0 to 15 mm
Chance of any rain: 70% ![]()
Partly cloudy. High chance of showers, most likely in the afternoon and evening. A thunderstorm likely, possibly severe, with damaging winds, possible hail and heavy rain which may lead to flash flooding in the afternoon and evening. Winds north to northwesterly 15 to 20 km/h tending north to northeasterly 15 to 25 km/h in the middle of the day then becoming light in the evening.
Ha, BOM says a 50% chance of at least zero mills for the next 24 hours. Very useful…
Seriously, the big stuff could start immediately before, or immediately after, the game. But it looks like my earlier bits at Dorrigo will be clear.
ANNOUNCE Bailey and Abbey re-signings!
One of my favourite moments of the 2024 VFLW season was when Bailey’s luxurious hair came loose this one time, and Bonnie completely and very loudly lost it in the crowd.
Hunt will likely play forward, especially with the outs of Brooker and MiaVanDyke. Could have some mid time, especially with Prespakis out (big-bodied mid).
As an AFLW player she mostly played as a rebounding back, but she’s not as fast as she once was…. Has a booming kick.
It’s gloomy, relatively cool, 94% humidity.
Rain might pass through before the game; lots of patchy stuff coming from inland.
Thunder!

I see what you did there…
Bloody clown ground has a roof that covers about a quarter of the seats (much less if the wind is from the north)… and they’ve blocked off two-thirds of the “International Stadium” stands.
Been asked to move yet?
