Just when they had a chance to stick with the top 4 they put in a shitter like that and drop out of the 8 again.

10 lousy points?

And hence, want equal pay?

We played that last 2 minutes terribly

& why wasn't that insufficient intent with 48 sec to go?

Totally screwed that one up.

Crap kicking, dozens of dropped marks, constant fumbling.

Great game Goldsworthy - 5 goals, just about single-handedly beat the Blues.

Because the umpires are morons.

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place but if anyone attended the game last weekend and managed to get their hands on a spare Kerryn Peterson Bobblehead you’d be interested in getting rid of for a reasonable price, please let me know.
My son and I made it to the game late and they were all gone by the time we arrived and he is trying to collect all the Bobbleheads with this one now the only one missing from his collection.

Pumped. Didn't score until the 3rd quarter.
Against the team that lost to West Coast at the same venue last week we conceded the first 6 goals of the game! It saddens me that I hear and see the Essendon* AFLW team display more passion and pride in their club and its history than some of our girls appear to.
Ours seem more intent on being trailblazers and forging their own identity as social campaigners rather than immersing themselves in the history and culture of the Carlton football club. Which is their right but they need to understand, my interest and affiliation with them is due to my emotional attachment with the CFC. Not necessarily the personal causes that are important to them. If they want to only utilise the historical connection where it suits, they'll lose the connection with me.
Yes, your pride jumper looks great but try playing with pride for the monogram. That's the key to gaining a meaningful relationship with the supporters.

It's time to move on some of the older heads and give the team to the youngsters coming through. They're the future and the ones who continually have a crack.

With our final game of the year about to start shortly, it looks like Carlton will have worn the proper jumper 4 out of 10 times this season.

It amazes me Laloifi is not being offered a deal. She's our best defender by a fair margin IMHO. And hugely popular as well.
I don't get it. If we're looking to refresh the list, I'd rather see a surplus player like Dal Pos get the flick.

Would have to be one of the worst managed lists in the AFLW.
Revolving door.

Yep agree BV, seems like an odd decision to let Mua go. Sounds like it might end up a trade given a couple of clubs (unsurprisingly) are interested in her, but still. Perhaps there's more to it than pure football ability?

Laloifi, I think, might be the most consistently good player we've had in the AFLW.

Thank you, and see ya.
