We've definitely got to dirty it up, if those big forwards get nice looks they will keep destroying us.
Very hard game to play for 4 quarters though.
Don't know where you are getting that from Tigermike. Any player can take the advantage after a free kick and in the men's competition there are many, many instances where another player crumbs and kicks a goal when a free has been called.
We're being well beaten and the stats would have us further behind. But we're still having a crack and that's what we need here. Keep fighting no matter what the score.
This is the best team in the league for a reason. Learn from this week and make amends next week.
Umpiring is, um, interesting at best.

If all players stop, it shouldn't be an advantage especially 30m out of the goals.
These holding the man frees are killing us. One way only by the umps. Take that spell there, Cox is trying to clear our D50, clearly held without being in possession, you see the shirt pulled away from her, no free. Couple of clearances, and the ball bounces towards our D50, holding the man (looked very minor) paid against Conti. The umpires seem to only be paying this one way.
Plus HOW THE *smile* WAS THAT "LATE HIT" PAID AS A DOWNFIELD. She hit her at the same time as she disposed of the ball. FFS learn the rules.

Players shouldn't stop until the ball is killed, they know anyone can take the advantage if they choose to.
and Bec Goddard sounds like she must be the life and soul of every party!!
Agree, umps rarely call play on with such a long pause. I went and made a coffee and when I came back she still hadn't played on.
Looks like we play the Pussies or lolnorf at home next week. We'll meet the Paddle Pops where it really matters for the GF.
Yeah i think you are right and I think most would have expected that.
This game shows where we need to improve. If we can keep the game contested we can stay in the game, but the area where we have struggled all year is being strong enough and dynamic enough on the outside. The difference between our outside game and Brisbanes is immense.
We've had a massive jump up this season in our ability to compete, its continuing to grow that and develop the ball movement to go with it that will determine where this team goes over the coming years.
