AFLW- Round 1 Carlton V Collingwod-Match thread.

Historic match tonight...

Fox Footy and Channel 7, (7mate in Sydney) from 7.30pm

We're just going to kick off with the one thread for pre-match, in-game and post match discussion.
If folks want to expand it in coming weeks and break it up as we do with the men's competition we can accommodate that.

I was hoping to go but it now seems that I will be watching the game on TV.  There's a few cold beers in the fridge :)

One thing that I will be interested to see is the impact of 16 players on the ground combined with what I suspect will be shorter kicking ...

I'll certainly be watching but it's hard to discuss as we have absolutely no idea of the players, their ability or that of any of the opposition. But, hey, guess we'll soon pick it up and learn.

IMO the 16 players was on show last year during the WB v Melb exhibition games. Way less congestion, stoppages and what I call "little league style mob chasing a ball".

As a lover of the game, a supporter of the club, and a father of 2 daughters aged 9 & 11 I am actually really excited about watching this game. My girls [and son] are certainly excited and we will be watching the first bounce for sure. If I was in Melbourne I'd be there for sure.

I'm not sure what to expect, but it's a historic event for the code and the club and I reckon we should get behind it regardless. Anything that makes the game more appealing to broader families and gives greater opportunities for women to play and showcase their athletic ability should be supported wholeheartedly by every one.

Go the Blues...........

Been a rollercoaster week for me this week.

Lost a family member who was a lifelong blues member who made the front page of the Herald after we won the '79 GF.  :'(

Had my 2nd child today who is already a signed up blues member.  ;D

History in the making tonight.

Wish i could've been there, but i think its a fair excuse! ;)

Sorry should've said it was a boy, my 2nd boy.

He's a baby 'rhino bear' if anyone was wondering.  ;)
