2021 ROUND 6
We win 4.5.29 to 1.9.15… never stop wasting your opportunities, Hawks!
The Hawks have made 10 (!) changes since playing us 28 days earlier. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing for them: they add 4 AFLW players this week, and also include some kid called El Chaston in her* debut VFLW game.
We have two debutants: tall utility Kasey Lennox and soon-to-be #7 draft pick and youngest AFLW player Zali Friswell.
In the warmup I note that Nanscawen has her calf taped; and that calf will tap out by halftime.
Did I mention I’m petty?
I don’t remember the below at all, but maybe someone at the club did. El has at least 5 shots at goal.
This is a time before I start annoying @handypoint:
An early point to Alana Barba, and then:
This is followed by MacDonald slotting a goal from the boundary on the run, and then Clifford putting us beyond reach.
We move to 3rd on the ladder.
There are disputes on our best players…
Meanwhile, Barba stepped up to replace Nanscawen in the middle with a team-leading 18 disposals, 11 tackles, and 9 clearances … but did not make the best six.
