AFLW 2019 Rd 7: Carlton vs Western Bulldogs

[LP]

I listened on the wireless during a slow trip up the Geelong Highway and the commentators were basically barracking for the Doggies.

I was worried I might be paranoid about that, but I picked up on it as well! Through one extended passage of play they barely called the name of any Carlton players, despite Carlton continually forcing turnovers and winning contests it was "Doggies have another chance....", "Doggies lose the football....", "Doggies building again....", "Doggies can get a run on...", etc, etc, etc..! :o ;D

(Ps I went outside at 3/4 time to continue with the renovations thinking we had it in the bag but hoping they (Dishlickers) wouldn't mount a huge, last gasp, nothing-to-lose last qtr with the wind, gulp, they did! But we got the choccies).

I was like yourself and only got glimpses and broken radio commentary, from the sounds of it Prespakis must have had a massive game, when she was on the field it seemed like Brennan and the other big names Dogs went missing! Can you imagine this girl with another pre-season or two under her belt?

From the other bits and pieces Pound and Van Dyk are having a golden run of form. Downie is having a consistent season with another solid performance. Davey keeps influencing, and she is doing so without the obvious dominance she has had in the past which is great because we no longer lose momentum when she is off the field.
