General AFLW comments and articles


We’d be a LOT lot more than average if we weren’t on track for nine losses in a row.

And this season started with such promise … :cry:

My reading of this approach is that Norf would not be allowed to protect anyone.

Of course, the article completely fails to put any numbers to the idea – can you protect 2 players, or 15?

Essendon protected list:

A. Gaylor
S. Wales
G. Belloni

The rest can prove themselves worthy given how this season has gone.

I’m also assuming that Prespakis and Toogood will just go “nah” given (a) they are on record as wanting to become bombers as soon as the opportunity arose, and (b) one of them is a co-captain.

I’d add Ridewood to that list and Toogood to that list.

I don’t think Toogood is a flight risk at all. So no need.

Ridewood is a fair shout.

Of course, the other minor detail is how much extra salary cap Tassie are granted (on top of a potentially larger list size).

Maddy Collier retiring from AFLW after 3 injury-plagued years stranded her on 47 games.

Played 25 games for our VFLW team in 2018-2019.

Houghton kicks her 100th career goal after the siren in her final game.

You couldn’t script it better.

Great to hear,I was hoping she wouldn’t be stranded on 99.

What did I miss? She’s good enough to keep playing, surely?

I could swear the commentators were saying it was her final game.

Maybe I misheard.

I’m sick of this horror calling Sydney the swannies. She needs to stop barraking, and start commentating fairly.

The AFL(W) does NOT predetermine results.

@Chris_1993 may or may not be happy that Gaylor is our only nomination.

Puts paid to my view she had some second year blues.

Good on her. First nomination/squad appearance of many across her career I suspect.
