AFLW R8: Richmond vs Geelong @ Punt Rd

[one-eyed]

Another easy Geelong goal. Ball bounces 15m out from goal and it's 3 Geelong forwards to one Tiger  .

2 - 30

[one-eyed]

OMG! We actually hit a target and in fact a couple in a row  . Conti to Brennan who is taken out 20 and gets the free.

Hooray, we actually got a goal!

Rich  1.2-8
Geel  5.0-30

Half-time

Richmond    0.2    1.2-8

Beyond woeful! Workrate improved in the last 5 mins but all up lazy, soft and pathetic .

[one-eyed]

Stats are kind of irrelevant when the workrate and teamwork is so poor but anyway here they are:

Inside 50s:  11 - 13
Marks in50:   0 - 4  ................ half a footy without hitting a target inside F50  .
Tackles:      30 - 39 ............... down in tackles despite chasing tail = poor workrate.
Hitouts:      19 - 14
Frees:          5 - 7


Leading possie winners [using that term generously]:

Conti   14
S.Hosking 7
Lynch   7

WP, please yell out loud: "As Balmey said, who was the idiot who came up with these stupid new rules?".

[one-eyed]

Conti to Makur Chuot to Brennan 35 out. She passes it off to Jacques 25 out (don't know why as Katie is the better kick).

There you go Jacques doesn't want to kick it and handballs it off and we miss .

Talk about being allergic to kicking goals! 

9 - 31

That last play sums up our day. Geelong plays runs through and past 5 Tigers without a hand laid on her.

Sam Lane thinks we're flat after playing in 34 degree heat in Perth last week.

[one-eyed]

Stahl (right knee) and Jacques (?) possibly ruled out for the rest of the game.

[one-eyed]

Geelong player hit her head on the ground taking the mark and then as she got up she collapsed backwards. Not good.

Yet they allowed her to take her kick despite clearly having concussion effects  .

[one-eyed]

Ball-up 30 out. Brennan tap into space for Seymour who has a ping from a tight angle. Misses.

10 - 33

We've actually reached double figures today .
