VFLW - FIRST EVER FINAL - vs Casey @ Casey - 12noon Saturday 3 July 2021 - YouTube, CaseyRadio, 3DJR
The Pies fell over the line versus Geelong, 4.2.26 to 2.8.20.
Therefore:
- if Port win tomorrow, we will play Geelong, who have lost 3 of their last four games and barely beat the Hawks in the other. That will be a knock-out final. They may not be the best team in the league, but they are the best team we’ve faced this year.
- if the Saints wins tomorrow, we play the Pies. Winner goes to the Grand Final, loser gets a second chance. The Pies are looking vulnerable, but if they so wish can bring in uber-AFLW players (e.g. Livingstone, Lambert)
Go Saints!
Looks like the AFL sent their photographer to the Pies/Cats game instead
Additional stats from the AFL site. Question is whether the umps like Georgia as much with their votes as with their “frees for”?
(And whether CBomb has stolen too many votes – we know the umps adored her in 2019. Both missed games through injury, though.)
Prespakis only 14 disposals… but 9 of them were clearances!
Despite what the below may indicate, we could have had a lot more tackles rewarded…
Casey really started winning the stoppages in the second half.
Yikes!
LOL. After the siren, and you need a muffler on that microphone. It really picked up in those closing minutes!
Crowd would have been multiple times bigger at Windy Hill. We still easily outnumbered the Demons (because that’s what we do at interstate matches!)
Also, a big FARK YOU to Casey for playing the boys’ song.
And according to the commentary, it was her first VFLW goal.
I commend her patience and wisdom in saving it for her twentieth game.
