Ladies Lounge / Re: AFLW 2024 Rd 4: Carlton vs Richmond at Carlton
Last post by kruddler -I am surprised we recruited Celine. She has a history of injury and has very few runs on the board. She isn't getting any younger and she doesn't seem to be improving. That is very ordinary. I don't see her on our list in 2 years: there are better, younger rucks going around these days.
Breann is also lacking input this year. Jess Good is doing more ruckwork, and she is quite good at it, but she doesn't have the same presence around the ground. Breann can, but it is appearing less and less these days.
I didn't mind the recruitement of Celine as valuable talls are hard to come by, and we were leaking some. So if between the twins and good, we needed to work out 1 forward, 1 back and 1 ruck, ideally.
Instead, Bree has been moved forward because she can play there, but we've sacrificed the ruck somewhat by playing Good there mostly.....and Celine is just taking up space and not really doing anything.....and not getting any better.
We need to make Bree #1 ruck. Have good playing from the goal square and swapping with Bree and send Celine back to the 2's.
Not sure if she is carrying any injuries, but her output cannot be persisted with.
