Yeah its hard to know.
Im not really sure, and to be frank it doesnt matter.
If she is right to play, we can only scrutinise her performance. The fact that shes dropped this week means that she was likely playing under duress last week, and why is something that doesnt matter overly, but it does explain her performance or lack thereof.
It also sheds a bit of light on why we elected to change captain and kept her in as a vice captain. Arnell may very well be carrying an injury which will hinder her entire season.

It was imposed on them this week in response to our game last week, but the only public comment so far from any club is that they will lay as they will play. If the game is scrappy and congested, so be it. They are out there to win.

Note also that this structure seems to make a mockery of the 16 per side historical structure, where there were no wingers. 6 players must be named in the midfield.
I also wonder just how much of the illness of our coach is coming from the stupidity of the AFL and their impossible demands? I am sure that if the men's coaches had been singled out like Keeping was, that there would be serious ramifications. I know of no coach at male level who would tolerate such interference.

I thought that was how we setup in Rnd 1 anyway.
Last year clubs went with the traditional no wings, this year they have all looked at shifting the numbers elsewhere.
I don't think it will make a smudge of difference!

Conditions look shit.
If the normal weather filters are being used the rain is quite heavy.
Re: AFLW Rd 2: - Carlton vs GWS @ Drummoyne oval - Lods - 02-09-2018
Have they stopped the game ?
Longest quarter time ever ???
Re: AFLW Rd 2: - Carlton vs GWS @ Drummoyne oval - Lods - 02-09-2018
Apparently electrical storms are affecting the coverage...so maybe Fox Footy haven't taken their A-Team to cover this match.
Re: AFLW Rd 2: - Carlton vs GWS @ Drummoyne oval - laj - 02-09-2018
We have a lightning stoppage. GWS 1.0.6 Carlton 0.4.4. We have dominated apparently the GWS went forward once, got a free kick and kicked a goal.
Re: AFLW Rd 2: - Carlton vs GWS @ Drummoyne oval - Lods - 02-09-2018
Yep
It's not just the telecast. They've actually stopped the game. GWS were strong early but we were well on top for the last 2/3 of the quarter. Not in front on the scoreboard but a couple of close misses.
Re: AFLW Rd 2: - Carlton vs GWS @ Drummoyne oval - kruddler - 02-09-2018
I was playing video games with my little fella and completely missed the start of the match as time got away from me. Just turn it on to 15 minute ad break and it showing the 2nd quarter with no game clock, or commentary.
....and a girl knocked out.
Amateur hour.
