Re: AFLW Standard

I am unsure which is worse, the standard of the football or the hype, propaganda and media commentary that all demonstrate it is taboo to say anything negative (or honest) about the competition. Remember, the participants are well paid yet play only a handfull of games that comprise a season. Many ...

Re: 2022 Training?

If hanners is injured we should open a list spot for mid season then we can invite another player maybe a KPB down now to train I am not comfortable going into the season with 2 open list spots look what happened last year we struggled to field a team at times. It leaves us more exposed during the ...

Re: Girls playing tonight.

Didn't see the game or know the scores but after reading this thread it sounds like we lost by 10+ goals ..... instead it was 6 but we only had 3 less scoring shots without 3 of our best players and also from the report below Number of St Kilda shots in the second and third terms were touched on th...

Re: Girls playing tonight.

Well that basically f****** the season. Big call I know but the % will be lingering and the belief will be very low. I expected a lot more from them.

What did Richmond do that we didn't? Recruited better I suppose. Our forward line was woeful and theirs was great.

Re: Training Friday December 17

Good to see Hanners on the track ‘Summertime, and the livin is easy’. Great lyrics, but ( surprisingly ) not yours , Ira; although your brother did write the music. I recall very clearly watching “ Porgy and Bess”. I was- and am - not a fan of that musical , but agreed to Mrs George’s request that ...

Melbourne took their chance but were lucky that Richmond, Carlton, Collingwood, Essendon, Hawthorn, Sydney and West Coast were all in a slump at the same time. Who would have predicted that 10 years ago?

Re: Time trial

It's a 3mk time trial. No mention on the club's website of specific times, just that, "Mason Wood has come out on top at this year’s pre-season time trial, with the tall forward one of several Saints to complete the three-kilometre run in under 10 minutes." So how far did they run in a 3m...

Terrible terrible loss. Such a great player. Balanced, skilled, smart. Feel really sorry for her. But at 19 maybe she has time to put it behind her going forward (we always look for positive angle don't we). Our Top 2 midfielders gone. Sheesh.
