AFLW 2024 - Round 8 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Obviously Armo.
Heyney has certainly developed in that area.
Will Johnson is super aggressive like Tommy S, but I'd think the club would want him to tone it down (sometimes he comes screaming into a tackle and gets side-stepped fairly easily, and he has blasted more than a few kicks 20m over the fence in trying to kick it 60m).
Hutchings is pretty tough for his size and lays a good tackle, but doesn't really dish it out.
When Drago gets a bit more confidence I'd be interested to see what he's got in this department.
Patto is really good in this area, but many of the AFL guys are too quick for him to catch!
Also noting Zac is currently out of the team and likes to dish it out when he can (still only 24yo).
Some of the other guys are a little bit touchy-feely with their tackles, but all go in when required. I don't atually blame them, as the VFL umpires do not reward the tackler and often pay stupid frees for "too high" and "in the back" which are not warranted (plenty of guess-work involved).
Armo punched the ball away in the Collingwoooood game - with eyes on the ball and a clear sound of fist meeting ball. The umpire paid an arm chop. The ball went onto the wing with Armo then going down with his knee injury. Should never have been there in the first place!
Damn! I was thinking that next week might be a good time to get a footy fix at the VFL.
But they have synchonised their week off.
just noted in my mind today that the next weekend will be an all round Saints vs geelong
Both Saints and Sandy Play geelong that weekend....
Sandy reserves Play this coming weekend in Ballarat- so I'm guessing a few ( and only Guessing) of the guys coming back from injury etc may get a game to have some consistent match Practice.
Dempster?I would guess that along with Miles there may be a few other- returning from injury- Saints who may play....
Gee hope he gets off. Not sure what he got reported for but him and Addam Maric were at each other all day. Would love to see him play against his brother at Geelong. I know the parents travel from Colac to see both boys and sometimes two games in a day and having both sons playing against each other would be fun to watch if Jon is as aggressive as Tommy.I've been waiting for a while to find out, and the VFL have finally made an announcement!
...
...
they will hold the hearing next week
Dempster?
Winmar?

Hadn't heard that Maddison was reported
"The Handicapper" gets a bit ferocious if I go away without her
Mine is long resigned to her destiny as the wife of a Saints Tragic.
Its tough on them, but mine still puts up a fight from time to time always coming back to me with her philosophical arguments and her utter incomprehension of why I barrack for a team that for all intends and purposes has won nothing in my lifetime.
When we lost last year and I was just totally devastated she showed genuine compassion and a side of herself that she had never revealed in 30 odd years of marriage. She really wanted the Saints to win for my sake. The whole thing in a strange way brought us even closer together.
A creeping resignation is entering her conscioussness that no matter what she has to live with me and in the background there is Roo and Kosi and Gilbo and Milneeeey and Red Bull and Lenny and bloody Raph and umpires and a whole language that she doesn't understand even after 30 years. My silent disappearances (to catch the games at the Pub when the Saints are not free to air) at odd times over the weekends. She threatened Divorce once over Foxtel. Its the inevitable acceptance that I love her , but I also love the Saints, thats sinking through to her, none of which is controllable.
From this she is beginning to understand why it is impossible for me to support any other than the Saints. If she loves me, as she does, there is no point fighting it, hence cut a bit of slack for the old fella, let him enjoy the present success of the Saints and if she can wrangle a few side benefits for herself in the process, well all the better.
Of course the PMT rule applies to the Saints as all other things in life. KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN AND BECOME AS INVISIBLE AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE.
Shit I got a bit carried away there. Anyway good advise to all you newly weds.
I can also confirm my household will not be receiving Foxtel broadcasts.
