AFLW 2022b - R4 vs Fremantle

Travelling to the west to take on Freo @Fremantle oval.

Will be a tough task despite Freo being 0-3, they are a lot better than that.

Should get Pound back.
Probably lose Guerin.
I think there'd be question marks over Vellardo and Trudgeon too.

Need the win to stay in the positive as currently, 1-1-1.

Any chance we get a free kick?

Freo's playing better footy but the umpiring is incredibly one-sided  >:(

Not sure how old that female umpire is, but she looks like she shouldn't be umpiring above U15's level, and its showing.

Some incredible non-decisions going on that should not even be a debae, just flat out wrong. Not even the AFL could attempt to justify some of them.
There was 3 in the space of 30 seconds (all favoured Freo) and the players are just left shaking their heads in disbelief.

I think the one free for holding the ball that i can remember (favoured us) was probably not even worth a free kick.

Pathetic umpiring aside, Freo are playing much better than us.
With all the players we lost in the off-season, and the players that are injured, we are playing players who are simply not up to scratch yet. Too many dropped marks, fumbles, mis-kicks and mis-handballs! Basic skill errors that should not be seen at AFLW level.

In AFL terms, our midfield has been devistated so badly, that we are so far down our depth chart, that its equivalent to Paddy Dow being our #1 midfielder.

All this talk about 'folding under pressure' is simply because our players have not been able to develop, rather thrust into the side before they are ready.

6 v 7 frees
We're playing poorly. Despite good conditions, can't get clean ball and our disposals are largely ineffective.

24 v 6 against a weak Freo says it all. I hope we have another gear.

Go Blues

Work so hard and dominate the quarter to get your nose in front. Then they get gifted a goal because freo player just dives forward while tackled.

I hate that as a rule.

We should've got a free for push in the back before Moody kicked that goal.

Girls have earned this. Lets hope they can hold on.

oh FFS.
How have they plucked out that free?
Holding was the call by the umpire.

Another week. Another draw!  :o

Freo gifted quite a few shots in front of goal in the last to get them 2 points.

I thought it was Pound's for in the back! Blinked and it was given to Freo 15m from goal 😳
Go figure

Good 2nd half response but alas. Just not enough. Skepper had a solid game.
