We have the bloke that went to America to play as a Punter in gridiron.
Chapman.
Give him the boot
13 inside 50's to 44.
The game has a long way to go. Not because we aren't good. But the skill levels haven't improved and in general the game overall hasn't improved.

If there's something I want returned back into the game.

Said it before, I'm sure Ooze will also look into this team to get things fixed.
Our style of play doesn't help. I really don't think we play to our players strengths and for that IMO Ferguson needs to go and we need a new coach.
Shevlin is a gun, she showed that a few years ago, she's a rebounding defender but we are playing her as a key defender where she can't use her kicking ability going forward. Similar with Sheerin this year, yet he tried to play Jess Hosking as a forward early in the year when she's far too slow to play that forward role. He simpley doesn't know where to play our players to get the best of themselves.
We have the makings of a good team, losing both McKenzie and Ryan for basically the whole season again is tough. We have brought Wickstead in (who is a tough clearance player) yet play her as a half forward and barely for 50% TOG each time. I really think the coach has no idea personally which is making us seem a lot worse than we really are.
The other thing I've noticed is we either have a lot of players that need to work on their fitness or aren't trusted by the coaches.
Just tonight, look at these TOG%'s (I've left our Seymour as she was injured early).
Kelly 69% (when our other ruck is injured)
Reid 57%
Eastman 68%
Woods 58%
Wickstead 47%
Thats way too many playing less than 70% TOG. It either affects the fitness of the other players in game, or a cumulative impact through the season. I suspect if you go into most games this year, we will see similar numbers of players playing less than 70% TOG.

Is she still there??
The girls still level is horrendous
I can't watch too long my blood pressure goes up
It was embarrassing to watch. Safe to say Ferguson must go. Hes had long enough and we've gone backwards. The game plan is horrendous.
I was just hoping at the end that we would kick a goal more for the fans who attended. It would've been demoralizing to kick 0 goals in 4 qtrs. I thought when Brennan missed a doozy right in front that would be it no goals for the night but a nice passage of play not long after saw Brennan kick the goal that erupted the pro Richmond crowd.
We are playing like a bottom 4 team. The Worst skilled side by far.
I will say and I'm sure many will agree our recruiting has been abysmal, Kate Sheehan and the recruiting team MUST GO.
Gresier, Jones, and Egan 3 slow players. We got all 3 wrong. Needed speedy skillful players. Look at North, even bombers in their 2nd year are building nicely.

Learned nothing all season from each defeat. We are possibly the worst skilled AFLW team in the league with arguably the worst coach. That performance won’t be attracting any fans.
