Indeed. And we haven't beaten Collingwood for a long time.

Collingwood's form has been inconsistent. Maybe we'll turn the tables $:-\$

Having kez back is about as good as we could hope for.

Pies aren't as strong as they have been in the past, but they still have a better 'list' on paper.
Hopefully we can have a better 'team'.

Davey was the driving force last week v Lions. She dragged them from behind to get the W. Lions looked to let her roam free. Gee, we've lost some top players.

We've lost a crop of players who, altogether, could be contenders, even with the Adelaide Gerrymander.

Speaking of letting Davey roam free....
On cue 🤨

But it was captain Bri Davey who led the charge, with another superb performance from the 2021 league best-and-fairest winner.

Davey kicked the first goal of the game against her former club after roving off ruck Sabrina Frederick to perfection.

The 28-year-old stuffed the stat sheet to finish with 21 possessions, 15 tackles and nine clearances.

Being Carl Vs Coll I thought I may give the AFLW another go to see if it’s improved since last watching about 2 years ago. Omg just when I thought it couldn’t get worse it did! What an absolute crapshow this comp is. How anyone can argue it’s entertaining must be very easily pleased.
Over 60s lawn bowls has more excitement than this crap.

Have tuned off for good.

Its hard to watch, I have tried to watch the odd game but can't get through more that 15 mins. Carlton is particularly bad.

I too tried a different approach. Just had it on in the background while working on something on the laptop. Thought I'd be able to get through a quarter or two. Switched it off after the 1st. I'll tune back in again in a couple of years

I saw a couple of passages of play (no 22 for us) could barely muster a jog chasing a ball in our fwd line. It was a horrible look. Their fitness and skill levels are commensurate with a Mickey Mouse comp. The AFL needs to get fair dinkum.
