Re: AFLW 2022 Rd 5: Carlton vs Adelaide at Ikon - DJC - 02-05-2022
Lauren Brazzale has been a fixture in the team for a while and it will be a little odd not to see her out there. Mimi Hill is definitely an upgrade though and it's good to see her back in the side.
It looks a much stronger team, on paper at least, and I won't be surprised if we upset the Crows.
It now seems that Breann Moody is out with COVID; our chances have plummeted ?

I'm tired of mucking around at the gate with the QR code, since they don't have manual sign-ins. I'm tired on our non-competitive efforts. I'm tired of not being able to sit where I normally do. I'm tired of there being no football record. I'l watch the game if we win.

Everyone giving it a good crack early. Intensity up from both.
Crows have a touch more class, but you can't question our girls effort.

Got tackled running into the open goal but surely you can't pull them down by hand over the shoulder.

How much better do we look with Mimi Hill back in the side!
13 touches in her first game in a year. f*** we've missed that.
FWIW, Prespakis has 10. McKay 9.
Re: AFLW 2022 Rd 5: Carlton vs Adelaide at Ikon - kruddler - 02-06-2022
Hill picking up where she left off.
Girls still got relentless pressure and won't go away. Get our first goal, 10 points in it.

We need to work on our tackling.
Our technique is not quite good enough.
I reckon there has been about 10 occassions where we have managed to tackle them and instead of turning them, we've just let them carry on in a straight line and they've managed to get a handball or a kick to escape a free kick for holding the ball. Every one of them would've been paid if they didn't get a boot on the ball (that travelled all of 1m in most cases). Grab even half of them and the momentum swings are huge.
Alternatively, one of my new favourite players Courtney "Compete at all costs" Jones has been done 2 or 3 times in a similar fashion when tackled, but the crows have managed to turn her slightly leaving her off-balance and unable to connect with a boot to ball.
I guess you can put that down to the experience of the crows vs our largely inexperienced bunch.
I'd just like to see some more reward for effort. When you do 90% of it right, and its just the last little part of the technique that is letting us down.
