VFLW - Round 7 vs Nth Melb @ Arden St, 10:05AM Sunday 3 April 2022

Brendan Rhodes confirms Morcom is hitting 50 games this week.

Casey fall over the line 5.6.36 vs the Pies 3.11.29 – the Pies had 39 inside 50s vs Casey’s 27.

Sts beat Port 45-22.

Surprise, Willy is dull and windy. That game vs Darebin just started.

With 4 second left in the first half, Stepnell gets the shock of her life when a ball lands on her chest…

She misses everything from the pocket.

2-2, eek. It’s not THAT bad out there.

Darebin kicked a goal!

9-2 they lead with 25 minutes left.

Willy will have some wind advantage in the last quarter.

15-2!

Percentage booster?

FIFTY to Willy. Shot from 35 out… is guided by the wind to bounce on the goal line, then reverse path, and go through for a point.

3-16 Willy chase Darebin.

Willy player has a chance to kick to the top of the square, but chooses to kick directly toward goal and predictably the wind takes it waaaaaay out of bounds.

That’s a fine.

Darebin win, either 15-3 or 16-3.

Interim ladder after half of the games. Darebin over 100%, finally.

Thread needs more comments on the warmup currently occurring.

Last (only other) match saw us frustratingly lose 3.7.25 to 4.5.29. We won inside fifties 42-32 but simply couldn’t score.

We’ve got a forward line now…

Almost no wind, very very slight breeze. Not as cold as I expected (large fleece, beanie and scarf).

Bella Ayre (25) started in the ruck.

Maybe (see below).

Cornish is playing.

No game #50 for Nalder???

Lovely bullet pass by Nanscawen to Tierney.

Morcom is playing #50.

Crook the deepest defender; has killed a couple attacks.

Zanchetta in trouble. Eventually gets up.

Tierney mark #3. In range.

These commentators about as accurate as the VFL ones yesterday.

BANG

6-0

Marshall at that centre bounce.

Cornish had gone 0-5 for hit-outs.
