AFLW North Melbourne Football Club AFLW - Season 2024

[Liam Boy]

Alice and Aileen would be both deserving AA’s. However, there is no way that Aileen should get the nod over Alice. However, I fear that’s how it might pan out.

after next week they will have played the same number of games for the season. Alice has already kicked two more goals. Easy choice.

This maybe me grasping at straws, but here at Ikon I watched both teams warm up, and I was genuinely shocked at how much Port flogged themselves in their warmup.

Multiple sets of full on sprints. A lot of high intensity/burst stuff. It's like they didn't adjust their normal warm up routine at all to account for the weather.

Lo and behold, they looked out of gas mid way through the first.

Just something I bumped on.

My dad got to the game before I did and was telling me about this... He couldn't believe it and said it was any wonder they started so flat....

Woops

How sweet it is to wake up Sunday morning with the memories of a thumping preliminary final victory & the tantalising prospect of premiership glory ahead.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

They had a lot of the ball for large parts of both games but they didn't put it on the scoreboard so they didn't control either game in my opinion. Their forwards went missing when it counted.

Same story again and again this season - it’s not just”kicking straight”, it’s not getting enough good shots on goal while they control inside 50s and territory. Very familiar tale for us. While our ins are very handy, that’s North’s single biggest improvement.

 

[Supa_Nova]

Very nervous.... wasn't at all for the port game but Brisbane are something else.

Was the game on channel 7 yesterday? I was going to watch the replay but 7+ doesn’t have it, only the night game.

It was on one of 7's secondary channels as well as Foxtel / Kayo.

It definitely was. Fox took the feed, I'm watching the replay on Kayo as we speak and it's the 7 graphics.

Who knows when this week's training times will be published?

I started watching the highlights each week this year about halfway through the season and have watched every final we played. The game has improved a lot and I enjoyed watching the games. Got to know the names of a few of our players. How good is it to watch a north team win.

Bris was a better result for us - Crows were the best team we played and pushed us twice.

I don't know. We destroyed Brisbane but they were also the first game either team played. Brisbane would have had a rude shock and have picked up since. I think Adel would be the better bet: we've played them twice, recently, and won without too much stress. I put Brisbane in the we can't know basket.

7.45pm is a garbage timeslot, wtf comes up with this?

 

[Flawed Genius]

Also - of any of the AFLW players who have tried their hand at the special comments caper, Meg McDonald is easily the best. Watching her with Underwood and Schleicher on the Fox coverage, McDonald was eloquent, didn't come across as nervous or like she was making stuff up, was able to speak to her experience playing against both teams, and generally came across like a genuinely seasoned media performer.

It's a good timeslot for broadcast.

 

[Sillygit]

It definitely was. Fox took the feed, I'm watching the replay on Kayo as we speak and it's the 7 graphics.

And there was some awful coordination with the audio at times, leading into the 2nd quarter i think multiple people speaking at the same time.

7.45pm is a garbage timeslot, wtf comes up with this?

It really is. Just been discussing with the wife, don’t think the 7 yo will make it that late, and getting to Icon is a PITA.

 

[Possession]

Lions scare me. A much more complete team than Adelaide, who instead rely heavily on a handful of elite guns. There's a reason they decisively won the arm wrestle last night. Hopefully our hunger is stronger.
