Yes, however the Brisbane defence was stoic and withstood the last qtr Adel sorties.

The start of the 4th, you would have thought two different teams walked out. Brisbane looked cooked early but managed to hang on then even managed to attack in the second half of the last. Was a good game.

About time Brisbane won a grand final.
Nice way to go out from our inaugural captain Lauren Arnell.

Its been 30 years for us to celebrate a blue winning a flag in blues colours.
Im not happy for her. I dont begrudge her either.
Its a very empty feeling knowing your club is destined to win nothing soon.

I thought the Women's game evolved quite markedly from last season. I thought our game style in 2019 was great it reminded me on 1980's type football. This year the good teams held onto the ball and were able to chip it around. I don't think our game style evolved enough to compete. We were within a goal in three matches and if we had held on against Freo we would have made the finals. I thought our lack of foot speed shown up, especially in our forward half where the ball came out to quickly in some of the early games, along with kicking skills. We need to improve our skills and upgrade the game plan and be able to shut down our opponents a bit more effectively than we did this season. I would like to see a season where everyone plays everybody else at least once and I would like to see all AFL Clubs with an AFLW team.

I listened to the first 15 minutes of Darcy Vescio interviewing Tope Adepoyibi. I have to say, I love Darcy's voice. Sweet, dulcet tones, very easygoing manner.
