Women’s team

[B.M]

Something is broken there

Scoreless at HT and getting pumped

Recruiters picked up a heap of older players who won’t take them anywhere

Why don’t they build a list from the draft?

Find a group of 17-21yo girls and invest

Add to that

Getting absolutely fkd over by the umpires

[Big Max]

Are there any rules, guidelines or protocols with regard to comments on the Women's team?

The 3rd quarter was better, no comment the first half.

[Bruce G McAbee]

Nothing changes each season, there doesn't seem to be any improvement.

[B.M]

We picked up
Lambert, Chioci, Plane, Wardlaw and took 1 draft pick!!!

And offloaded
Greiser, White, Shirlaw

Not sure how that was going to make the list better

Lost over previous season
Bohana- dominated at GC and is Capt
Lucas Rodd Capt of Hawthorn
Drenan regular at GC

lol what really?

[Rickabee]

Also worth noting that Caitlin Greiser (spelling?) kicked the winning goal for Richmond today from about 40-45m out from the posts. The shot went through at 3/4 post height from that distance.

She was the G Train? Is that right? Yes, it doesn't make any sense getting rid of good players. Maybe they wanted to leave.

[B.M]

No issues with the coach - other than he is implementing a game plan that the girls are not skilful or fit enough to implement

Dal should be VFL/Dev coach in the men’s program

Nathan Burke coach of the girls

I'd give Dal a bit more time before potting him with his new line-up. First half was disastrous but leaves maximum room for a quick rise upwards when coming from zero. The girls must have been devastated and I would imagine they'll be eager to work hard to improve quickly and although they were in such disarray, they did keep one of the better teams to just 8 goals, principally due to their tackling pressure and improvement after half time.

You can say that again. Disgraceful performance by the maggots.

Home team bias?

B M is actually correct.

[Otiman]

Have gone backwards since ditching Peta Searle.

[magnifisaint]

Honestly can't watch any of the women's games. At first it was just for curiosities sake but now I see the games being so scappy and skill less that I get more enjoyment watching women's soccer. And I don't really like soccer.

[Life Long Saint]

There is very little fluid ball movement from any of the AFLW teams.
Every possession seems to put the next player under pressure. Invites tackles (which they excel at, by the way).

To make the footy more watchable, I'd rather see fewer tackles and more possession chains that hit targets by hand and foot.
Currently, the AFLW is a long way off that.
North did it a little in the first half yesterday, but only because we were applying zero pressure.

Watching U12 is more enjoyable.

[B.M]

Have you watched any 1960s footy?

Kicking drop kicks along the ground

Barely a target hit, they just belted it forward - it was scrappy as all fk

Even the 66 GF is ordinary to watch - footy evolves

But at least back then players held position allowing for space and time for quick ball movement

Problem with the girls is
The girls are playing a squeeze up game (like the men) but aren’t powerful or skilful enough to get out of congestion hence it becomes scrappy.

They need to reduce numbers around the footy!

Only Jas Garner had the strength to bullock her way through players and clear the footy

And fkn Zoning doesn’t help!

Let the girls play - instead of stifling ball movement

[magnifisaint]

I like to see the girls do well but women's football is s***.
What's that Melbourne player's name that commentates on the footy?
She's the biggest pain with her whiny voice.

That's being very inclusive and gender neutral.
