Can we change the title of the thread to 'AFLW Saints this Sunday'? So all those who are disinterested can just move on with their lives.

Good luck to our girls today. Any player wearing a Saints jumper is worthy of support. There seems to be a bit of a competition by some on this site (and in the community) to be the most disinterested in AFLW, but today is an exciting landmark. Those complaining about skill levels compared to the men need to keep a bit of perspective. The skill levels will grow dramatically over the years and decades to come. Scores were pretty low when the men's competition started.
The suggestion that the AFLW games should be curtain raisers to the men's games seems a bit patronising - although maybe there is potential in the future for "double headers", with both our teams playing on the same ground on the same day (maybe afternoon and evening games - allowing for sufficient ground maintenance/recovery work to be undertaken between the two games).

don't really believe it will fail but thought it was funny

great idea... everyone please tag all future threads pertaining to the AFLW with "AFLW" so we can all avoid them.
Thanks in advance.

Should be a good crowd with FREE entry .

[Rubyjo]

I'm giving it a go.

But I still think the AFLW should be played in winter as curtain raisers to the AFL.

Or the other way round just to be pc

I’m going today, expecting very little as a spectacle but hope to be pleasantly surprised. I’m open to getting on board so will know in 5 hours

Just getting it out early, very windy at Moorabbin May be low scores, .

[stkfc1]

Great turnout. Very windy. Skills go from very good to deplorable but wind isn't helping. Bloody gutsy efforts though. Our 21 is a little gun.

[SemperFidelis]

Beautiful day here at Moorabbin.

Packed house, people still arriving a half time. Food trucks better than anything you’d get at Marvel.

Everyone at the ground in great spirits, bloke just took a mark behind the goals and brought the house down.

Our girls are fast. No. 4 is a cracker.

Wind is ridiculous. We were kicking with it that quarter but couldn’t convert.

Hope we can kick a few more, but a good day so far!

[IluvHarvey]

Who cares.

You would have to be a sad sack if you didn't support a group of girls who are playing in the red. black and white colours of St Kilda, who train at Moorabbin and are OUR AFLW team.
Go Sainters!

Not a sad sack but the aflw is just rubbish........an agenda being pushed that is just so ordinary to watch

Of course there is an agenda, and it’s a bloody good one. It’s one where my 3 year old daughter will have the same opportunities as my son in being able to look up to Saints players of her own gender inspirationally. I see nothing but good coming out of this.
To those who complain about the standard, clearly it’s not great but it is getting better. Look at some of the younger girls who have come through the under 18 comp that are playing now. They are fantastic.
I would love to know what the quality of Men’s football was like in the late 1800’s when it started and there were only a handful of people playing. I bet it was crap!
AFLW standards will continue to get better every year!

No, but maybe the fact you have to post 7 times about how disinterested you are says something.

Could just not say anything if you have no interest

[samuraisaint]

I'm not there, am waiting impatiently for the 20th, but watching on TV got me in.
And it's great watching matches which mean something back at dear old Moorabbin again.
Hell, I'll bite - I'm a convert!
Love the intensity - the girls out there can certainly play, and they're not scared!

[samuraisaint]

Probably the best chance of us seeing a premiership in the near future!

Not on current form though

[Devilhead]

Cant be any worse than some of the crap I saw at Moorabbin during the 80s

Think its great that there is an AFL Ladies league and for sure the standard will get better over time however I suggest that they should be playing on smaller (shorter) grounds in that it would help scoring

Go Saints!

Number 21 - Georgia Patrikios . Only 18. Will be a beauty. Ran out of legs, but looked very clever early.
