Funny game, I thought the Dawks probably had 3 or 4 of the Top 5 on the day, but wasted it.

Vescio when it matters, she has a habit of doing it.
Both DV and Sophie McKay lifted when it matters. I thought Haws blitzing of the contests had us rattled. Once we were able to make handballs and kicks slightly longer, we got it out and got the game going our way.

That really was an entertaining game but I would have preferred fewer lead changes once we hit the front 🙂

Hawthorn certainly played well early and were able to disrupt our game with their pressure … and some suspect umpiring decisions.  That we were able to come back and take control of the game is a real credit to the girls and Bucky.

Darcy was magnificent in her 100th game; one of the best of her illustrious career 👏

I think that Tara Bohanna’s inclusion was important and meant that our forward line retained its potency when Poppy Scholz went behind the ball.

Poppy looked proppy at the end of the game.  Hopefully it’s just a corky.
Poppy needs to extract the digit and produce more. She has all the tools to dominate a game.
