Ladies Lounge / AFLW List Management 2025
4 players moved on today: Taylor Ortlepp, Lulu Beatty, Jade Halfpenny and Gen Lawson-Tavan.
Of those, Gen played a fair bit: 18 games in 2 seasons.

Ladies Lounge / AFLW 2024 Rd 10: Carlton vs Essendon
The girls play their last game for the season on Saturday night at Carlton against the Drug Cheats (19:15).
We would not be favourites, but we could stop Essendon from getting into the finals.
We should have Vescio back from injury.

Ladies Lounge / AFLW 2024 Rd 9: Carlton vs Collingwood
This Sunday at 15:05 at Collingwood. :(
We might start favourites here, as Collingwood haven't won many this year.

Our line-up:
B:  [27] Gen Lawson-Tavan  [21] Harriet Cordner
HB:  [6] Gab Pound  [9] Kerryn Peterson  [10] Mimi Hill
C:  [22] Mia Austin  [5] Abbie McKay  [4] Keeley Skepper
HF:  [25] Keeley Sherar  [36] Ciara Fitzgerald  [29] Jade Halfpenny
F:  [8] Celine Moody  [16] Breann Moody
R:  [12] Jessica Good  [18] Madeleine Guerin  [20] Lily Goss
Int:  [34] Taylor Ortlepp  [17] Dayna Finn  [26] Tarni Brown  [1] Amelia Velardo  [15] Meg Robertson

Em:  [14] Marianna Anthony  [23] Lila Keck  [13] Lulu Beatty

Jade Halfpenny is our 7th debutante for the season.
Celine Moody plays her 50th game. Can't recall many sensational ones, but we have 4 big marking targets. Granted that not many of them kick goals or take contested marks, but that is another tale.
No Vescio - still in concussion protocols.

Ladies Lounge / AFLW 2024 Rd 7: Carlton vs Fremantle at Freo
Not favourites again this week. Freo playing well and may play finals. We're going nowhere fast.

Our line-up:

Carlton
B:  [27] Gen Lawson-Tavan  [21] Harriet Cordner
HB:  [6] Gab Pound  [9] Kerryn Peterson  [10] Mimi Hill
C:  [36] Ciara Fitzgerald  [5] Abbie McKay  [4] Keeley Skepper
HF:  [25] Keeley Sherar  [3] Darcy Vescio  [26] Tarni Brown
F:  [14] Marianna Anthony  [12] Jessica Good
R:  [16] Breann Moody  [18] Madeleine Guerin  [20] Lily Goss
Int:  [34] Taylor Ortlepp  [15] Meg Robertson  [23] Lila Keck  [22] Mia Austin  [17] Dayna Finn

EMG:  [8] Celine Moody  [29] Jade Halfpenny  [13] Lulu Beatty

Having Peterson and McKay come back is a big positive for us.
I don't think we'll miss Dal Pos much: she's struggled since she's got here. Duursma ... I hope she'll get better, considering that we traded for her.
Meg Robertson looks reasonable: she appears to be a decent pick-up. Maddy Guerin has made a decent return, but isn't consistent yet.
We really need a lift in the ruck: hopefully, Moody will show what she's capable of. Our forward line is not looking strong.

Ladies Lounge / AFLW 2023 Rd 6: Carlton vs Brisbane at Carlton
Game is at 19:15 at Ikon for those who want to attend what is supposedly the 1000th game at our home ground.
We are not likely to win: Brisbane are one of the favourites for the Premiership.

Our line-up:
B:  [27] Gen Lawson-Tavan  [21] Harriet Cordner
HB:  [6] Gab Pound  [49] Madeline Hendrie  [10] Mimi Hill
C:   [36] Ciara Fitzgerald  [23] Lila Keck  [4] Keeley Skepper
HF:  [25] Keeley Sherar  [2] Jessica Dal Pos  [26] Tarni Brown
F:  [17] Dayna Finn  [22] Mia Austin
R:  [16] Breann Moody  [18] Madeleine Guerin  [20] Lily Goss
Int:  [3] Darcy Vescio  [15] Meg Robertson  [14] Marianna Anthony  [12] Jessica Good  [11] Yasmin Duursma

Em:  [8] Celine Moody  [29] Jade Halfpenny  [13] Lulu Beatty

Not surprised that Celine Moody is out, but our forward line is lacking. Darcy Vescio can't buy a goal and Mia Austin doesn't really know what she's doing yet.
Hopefully we can do a bit better than we did last week.

Ladies Lounge / AFLW 2024 Rd 6: Carlton vs Port Adelaide in Adelaide
After 2 shockers in a row, the girls are on a hiding to nothing with another short break. We play Port this Sunday in Adelaide. Not ideal, but ...
Sunday 29th Sep at Alberton Oval at 17:05.


B:  20 Lily Goss  21 Harriet Cordner
HB:  6 Gab Pound  11  Yasmin Duursma  10  Mimi Hill
C:  2 Jessica Dal Pos  3 Darcy Vescio  4 Keeley Skepper
HF:  25 Keeley Sherar  22 Mia Austin  26 Tarni Brown
F:  49 Madeline Hendrie  12 Jessica Good 
R:  16 Breann Moody  18 Madeleine Guerin  15 Meg Robertson
Int:  36 Ciara Fitzgerald  23 Lila Keck  14 Marianna Anthony  8 Celine Moody  13 Lulu Beatty  27 Gen Lawson-Tavan  29 Jade Halfpenny  17 Dayna Finn

Now we have a couple of girls who used to play for Port, so that will be an interesting aspect of this one.

Ladies Lounge / AFLW 2024 Rd 4: Carlton vs Richmond at Carlton
An unchanged line-up for tomorrow night's game. We play Richmond at 19:15 at Ikon Park.
B:  [27] Gen Lawson-Tavan  [21] Harriet Cordner
HB:  [6] Gab Pound  [9] Kerryn Peterson  [18] Madeleine Guerin
C:  [17] Dayna Finn  [12] Jessica Good  [4] Keeley Skepper
HF:  [25] Keeley Sherar  [22] Mia Austin  [26] Tarni Brown
F:  [8] Celine Moody  [3] Darcy Vescio
R:  [16] Breann Moody  [10] Mimi Hill  [5] Abbie McKay
Int: [36] Ciara Fitzgerald  [49] Madeline Hendrie  [13] Lulu Beatty  [14] Marianna Anthony  [20] Lily Goss
EM:  [11] Yasmin Duursma  [23] Lila Keck  [1] Amelia Velardo

We won't go in favourites this week either.

Ladies Lounge / AFLW 2023 Rd 4: Carlton vs Geelong at Carlton
Our first home game for the year at 14:35 on Saturday.
Geelong were finalists last year, so we won't be going in as favourites. They are short on ruck talent, while we are reasonable in that area.
Hopefully, Geelong will be Felis Domesticus this weekend.

Robert Heatley Stand / Jim Park Voting 2024 Elimination Final Carlton vs Brisbane
Voting is as usual: you have 15 votes to award pretty much as you will, with the following provisos:
[1] 15 votes in total, no more, no less.
[2] No more than 10 votes for any one player (even Sam Walsh or Patrick Cripps)
[3] Three players at least must get a mention.
[4] A grade for the game, A+ (what I want to see) to F-.
13
Ladies Lounge / AFLW 2024 Rd 2: Carlton vs Gold Coast in Qld
We play Gold Coast at Carrara on Sunday at 13:05.

Our line-up:
B:  [27] Gen Lawson-Tavan  [21] Harriet Cordner
HB:  [6] Gab Pound  [9] Kerryn Peterson  [13] Lulu Beatty
C:  [17] Dayna Finn  [20] Lily Goss  [14] Marianna Anthony
HF:  [25] Keeley Sherar  [22] Mia Austin  [26] Tarni Brown
F:  [3] Darcy Vescio  [4] Keeley Skepper 
R:  [16] Breann Moody  [10] Mimi Hill  [5] Abbie McKay
Int:  [23] Lila Keck  [2] Jessica Dal Pos  [18] Madeleine Guerin  [8] Celine Moody  [12] Jessica Good 

Em:  [15] Meg Robertson  [36] Ciara Fitzgerald  [49] Madeline Hendrie

Gold Coast also lost last weekend.

Ladies Lounge / AFLW 2024 Rd 1: Carlton vs Hawthorn
Our first AFLW game against Hawthorn is this Sunday at 13:05 at Frankston.
Why Frankston? Good question, and I don't have a good answer. Not a great place to play when it is windy.
Lulu Beaty is named for her debut. The rest of the team is, as yet, uncertain, as in Schödinger's Cat. No doubt it will drop into its Eigen State in the next few days. :)
