VFLW - round 1 vs Port @ North Port Oval, 4pm Sat 19 April 2025

QUARTER FOUR

  • I was starting to think I’d been overly harsh and vanDyke merely had a “nothing” game rather than a bad one, but geez she gets beaten pretty easily in the opening minute. Luckily, Port fail to covert.
  • Commentator is not aware than Ava is, well, mini. Megan does not look much like her.
  • And vanDyke’s lack of clean hands at 2:30 is a worry too.
  • The lights partially fail at 4:20 in. Someone must have had different things on their mind then.
  • Nice contested mark by Richo. I am thinking she should be playing FF, rather than CHF, to give us a better chance of our long kick(er)s working out.
  • 7:40 Plummer was annoyed and expressed herself via Bromage. Justified free against her.
  • I don’t know why photos have not been published from this game. They were certainly taken.
  • 12:40 bloody hell, Port got some soft frees/goals. Worth two-thirds of the winning margin.
  • 15:50 Caruso elbow to the throat/jaw of Mini. Not deliberate, but ow. It’s a persistent hazard when that short.
  • 17:00 Plummer been busy this quarter. Gets it forward for MaggieO to feed Tia the goal.
  • Which Essendon player should take this lasso free kick? If you guessed #70 Porter you must have been following the game at the time, because WTF.
