Re: AFLW- Round 1 Carlton V Collingwod-Match thread. Reply #6 – February 03, 2017, 03:23:23 pm 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 ... Quote Selected
Re: AFLW- Round 1 Carlton V Collingwod-Match thread. Reply #7 – February 03, 2017, 04:22:40 pm 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. Quote Selected

Way less congestion, stoppages and what I call "little league style mob chasing a ball". Quote Selected

Reply #9 – February 03, 2017, 05:18:22 pm 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...........
