AFLW - round 3 vs Crows @ Unley Oval, 3:05pm (Melbourne time) Saturday 16 September 2023

Key Stat Areas

Two key areas that Essendon in particular will have to focus on are the handball and uncontested possession categories. These are two of Adelaide’s strongest categories, so Essendon will need to keep an eye out for that.

Key Match Up/s

Niamh Kelly vs Georgia Gee

Two very quick wings that provide a lot of run for their team, Kelly and Gee will provide an entertaining match up to see whose speed and link up with the other midfielders is the most influential.

Ebony Marinoff vs Madison Prespakis

Two tough footballers who are relentless at the ball. These two are the core ingredient to any successful clearance for their team, so will also be crucial to stop but at the same time provide an entertaining one on one battle.

Chelsea Randall vs Bonnie Toogood

Two of the faces of the competition. Two tough footballers who are relentless at the ball.

Toogood is such a crucial target for the Bombers up forward, but will certainly have her work cut out for her trying to navigate past Randall and her influence.

Two questions

  • is our game really delayed due to that little snake in Sydney?
  • why are we at 6-1 odds, given that we’re undefeated after two games? I get it that the Crows are good, but that seems crazy

I see nothing on a delay, yet. I just worry with the way Fox/Kayo run minimal channels/streams and rely on the games finishing on time.

Soooooo are we going to be able to watch our game?

Prespakis clearing, Bannister clunking, Scott taking marks with at least one foot on the ground.

All is good with the world.
