Half time score Blues 37 Cats 15.

Those girls will never die wondering. Bloody hell they go in hard. I'd be flattened in the first contest. They make mistakes that the boys wouldn't make, which is perfectly understandable for what are essentially part time players in a new competition.

Good half of footy.

Half time and its 6.1 to 2.3

Prespakis went off late in the first with an elbow injury (after collecting 10 touches) but came back on and although its strapped up, she seems ok.

Downie went off with a head clash and hasn't been sighted since. Harsh, but i don't think we'll miss her. She has been playing exclusively back and we are too tall with her there.

The new breed, McKay, Hill and Egan are getting plenty of it and showing their class in the guts. Always have time, not afraid of contact and generally good users of the ball.

Gibbs in her 2nd game is having a much better one. Seems to have the pace of the game, and is impacted it up forward.

Vescio has a hand in most things up forward and is invaluable as a small forward (who can mark) and apply pressure.
Gee has been a bit quieter by compairson, but still makes things happen.

Pretty good across the board, but still some room for improvement.

Katie Loynes leadership and grunt is a standout 💪

You know what you are going to get with her and we've missed her.

However, she ain't what she used to be. Is a step slower than she used to be and the others are a lot quicker than they used to be.

I hope she can lift a level....as she is on the verge of missing a spot in the future.

Clean pick up and goal to Pound
Then clears from last line of defense. Work rate is solid

Cats keep coming with some very slick passages of play

Still 23 points in it. 1 quarter to go.

Currently our % has increased 97.4% to 108.0.

Unfortunately the lowest of the teams above is Melbourne with 125.7%

We really need to put the foot down and kick away. We have some winnable games in the last 3 games (GWS+GC) and a tough one against Freo (@Ikon) but this is the one where % should come.

Get the ball in Vescios hands, one on one, and goals will come.
She's kicked 2. She's handed 2 off (if not 3) and she just impacts the game. Let her.

Mimi Hill has just done her knee.

She can not be replaced. That hurts.

In the end Gee and Vescio get the job done
