Fewer scoring shots than last week but a higher score.

That must be a positive.

Simply not competitive.
Surely having teams this bad isn't sustainable for the AFLW?

Hmm, I was planning to watch some of this game last night but I forgot, seems like that was a good outcome.

How can our team still be so abysmal after so many years? I’m sure they did well in the first year didn’t they?

How many players have we been able to retain?
Seems like most of our better players have moved on.

Wouldn't have a clue if it's happened before, but maybe we've created history by being the first team to lose twice in the one round.

Roger.

I noticed our percentage is currently at 47.4.

Collingwood's is lower, at 45.5.

Abbie McKay listed as 1-2 weeks on the latest injury report.
A proud Father-Daughter moment.

I turned it off.

Anyone watching ? I have never seen a team that is so unfit and uncompetitive in all my years following this club.

In 4 weeks, i estimate around maybe 4 goals in total. That is just so unbelievable.

We should just get rid of this team as clearly we dont rate it, we dont spend money on it.

And on top of all this, we extended the contract for this coach.

It’s beyond beyond bad this team. Arghhhhh i dont know anymore.

Got Keck out of the forward pocket and she’s had about 7 touches in 10 minutes.

I thought the buck would have to stop here, but apparently not.
