VFLW - Round 2 vs Cats @ Windy Hill, 2pm Sat 23 May 2026

Yes, the fixture says 12noon but apparently our VFL game is being televised now so they’ve shifted things around a bit.



EDIT on Monday: fixture now fixed.

We beat the Cats 41-15 down there in the pre-season. Both goals were conceded in the final quarter; well, one was conceded, and the other was an umpire making it all about themself.

FROGGY set to reach 50 VFLW games:

  • 6 with Footscray
  • 5 with Port (when they were aligned with Tiggers AFLW)
  • 39 with us

MINI set to reach 25 VFLW games (1 as a junior elsewhere).

(Marli Klaumanns-Moller needs 1 more to reach 25 as well… but she to get into the team first).

I had an error for 2024 round 1 that meant I thought she was reaching 49, but I was still much closer than what “reputable” sources like the below claim…

Amazingly, PlayHQ was actually correct.
