Bernardi had one hell of a first game, and her combination with Richardson looks to be as good a key forward arrangement as we have had since 2022.
Ditto Albrecht and (for the next few weeks while we can afford it) McDonald best forward smalls since, yes, 2022. And Albrecht is a tad tougher than NatMac was.
Was a very very marked contrast in forward efficiency compared to last week…
Robinson best game for some time.
Layla Prince is not going to be a dominant hit-outs-to-advantage ruck, but I am absolutely not complaining about today’s 30 hit-outs and 8 tackles. Yet to be seen if she can also be a satisfactory KPP.
Chaston is a star. Ava is improved, lots of good leads today. Green Boots is growing in confidence as a regular intercepter.
