The Reboot - the 2023 VFLW season summary

No changes (no Crook! Wilson lives!)

After 11 minutes, a scorching pass from Molan hits Mia on the lead. She converts to make the score 8-0, and to be the first Essendon VFLW player to kick 50 goals. Frew only kicked 49, and is here today near our bench and players. And so is Alex Quigley, another noted FF for us.

At quarter time we lead 9-1… is this real, are we about to become Premiership favourite?!?

Mia hurts her ankle. She comes on and off for the rest of the game.

There’s no wind, but the Pies beat us 0-15 in the second quarter.

Ryan has more clearances (6) than Jess Bates (5).

After getting tested prior to the third quarter for some kind of ailment, Dicker has 14 disposals and 8 tackles in the second half to tie Bates.

And that’s the score at the final break:

We got the first point, but then a ghost from our past (Caitlin Sargent) arises to mark and goal.

It’s the only goal for the quarter, and we lose 2.6.18 to 3.4.22… Molan surprisingly fell short with a kick on the run at the death.
