BOTH the VFLW and AFLW will play Friday nights at Footscray this year, AGAIN.

Let’s not try to cop this two weeks in a row…
(Jorja played wing for 30 disposals, 7 tackles, and 2 goals. I’m OK with one of our weirdo wingers staying a bit closer to her.)
Stats Leaders (leaders, us, Dogs, maybe a few others)
Sorted by sum of stats, but (apart from goals) the average per game played is shown.
We have a new disposal leader, unfortunately…

Goals leaders: Is that the same Brooke Sheridan who could only muster 1 game for us.
Yep; it’s not clear if she was injured, or whether we had given up on her before the start of the season.
She kicked 7 goals against Tassie, has gone scoreless for fours games this year, and actually has just 10 goals (oops). She probably ranks as the fifth best Norf forward, behind Tierney, Dojiok, Knoll, and Savarirayan. Barba and di Cosmo would likely also be ahead if they played as forwards (they have 13 goals between them as mids).
I clearly didn’t run that ranking through a common-sense filter (I think I saw the bit where she averages 1.4 goals and skipped the decimal point…)
IN: C. Bernardi, M. Ford, D. Ryan
OUT: I. Boulton (Vic Country U18), T. Gilcrist, J. Richardson (omitted)
IN: E. Lee, P. Pavic
OUT: N. Clover, T. Stringer (omitted)
NEW: Evie Lee, 21, 167cm, Carlton VFLW/Fitzroy
Owen named HBF and Bernardi ruck-rover.
Right.
The ground and the surrounding streets are bizarrely empty today.
Almost no wind, so doesn’t feel that cold. No cloud
Jayda warming up.. Maybe a late change?
Chaston to be a defender again?
The Loose Goose is runner tonight. Let’s go Lucy!
Surprise, ChristinaBernardi with the forwards and Owen the mids.
Richo is the emergency in warmup, but her hair is flowing freely so safe to say not playing.
Tiny crowd, massively skewed to Essendon fans.
Plummer starts mid. Chaston back.
