Williamstown regains Naomi Ferres and Zoe Day for its home clash with Essendon at DSV Stadium.
The Bombers have been hit hard by unavailability, with three players recalled to AFLW duties, while Christina Bernardi, Sophie Molan and Chloe Hunt are all out with injury.

Also, rain overnight that might extend through the game.
Very strong wind from the north.
Enjoy.

â– â– â– â– â– â– â– LOL at vfl.com.au not feeling the Vogt debut was worth mentioning.
And Prpic returns after two years?
No AFLW practice matches this week, so not sure how Owen goes from that to emergency
And I hope this Molan foot injury is an unrelated non-event… her returning to form this year was delightful

10.35am start. Perfect day for a cold, wet, windy game.
30km/h cross wind and almost no rain.
Meh.

We kick with the wind in the first quarter and end up trailing 6-18.
Second quarter begins with another Willy goal. 1.0.6 to 4.0.24
More PTSD for me from de Angelis…
Debut VFLW (pretty sure not EFC) goal for Vogt. Playing mid or forward?

Yep, this is a typical game versus Willy…
Murdered on clearances, and Willy always kick.
Funnily, we lead marks regardless.
President Zelensky drops in to kick two goals for Willy.
We’re not very good
Vogt starting in the middle at the start of the 3rd quarter.
Reynolds kicks it to Damage who lines it up and hits the post!
8-47 in the 8th minute.
SHE MOSTLY MISSES.
1.2. 8 to 11.7.73
When Bateman is #2 for disposals, something is wrong.
Manfre’s stats: 1 tackle.
