Loynes and Brazzale both play midfield, Gee will get more time in there in the future.
Davey provides more run through the midfield than most of our mids.
I'm not saying don't get more midfielders, i'm just saying we are low on our depth chart as it is in that area which is making it look worse than it would be if we didn't have those injuries
Re: Blues v Doggies - R4 - Jack Burton - 02-23-2018
I thought Brazzale played mostly HBF? Anyway, what we need is a Kearney/Blackburn type. or maybe both of them

Evidently without their 2 better forwards :o
Goes to show how quickly things can change. For the worse in our case. It'll be a long week for our girls. Recover and reload ladies.

Better delivery and she will not be beaten.
We are desperately short on depth at the moment.
Davey out - irreplaceable
Harris out - irreplaceable
Brazzale and Gee - Plenty of much needed run and carry missing
Loynes a late out can't be replaced
Thats 5 out of the team who would be picked if fit.
I'm not sure if there are any other players who are injured that i don't know about.
There are only 27 spots on an AFLW list plus an additional 3 rookies.
20 players play each game.
So that means (at best) we have 5 fit players who are not playing....possibly 3 of them rookies!
When 25% of your best team, including your captain, are missing you are going to struggle in this comp.
You're certainly right there. Missing a few hurts the women's team way more as the depth just can't cover their loses.
Re: Blues v Doggies - R4 - flyboy77 - 02-23-2018
Even with those playrs in, our midfield was inept nd our forward line woeful.
Is it the coachind strategy, the players or what but we have failed to score so frequently eg no score in 3 quarters today, it really is not a good advertisement for Carlton or the women's league...

But didn’t you think they’ve been royally embarrassed in every game they’ve played ?
Re: Blues v Doggies - R4 - flyboy77 - 02-23-2018
Not royally! :o
Re: Blues v Doggies - R4 - chalkybill - 02-23-2018
Can anyone tell me what right the umpire had to order a Carlton player to move from the backline where she was plying loose in defence, to our forward line and even waited for the girl to do so before throwing the ball up?

Girls must start 5, 6, 5 before the ball is bounced. (backs/mids/forwards)
New directive to stop flooding back.
Only happens at centre bounces.
