Been one of the best in the league over the last couple of seasons. We’ve made some astute signings which is great

Hopefully she’s training? Would love to see her this season at some point!

Last I heard she wasn't doing contact work yet but that was about a week ago. I hear Casey also arrived with an injury picked up with Hawthorn so will probably have to wait at least a week or two to see her.

Not so sure you can call her a star striker, been very underwhelming in my opinion.

This will be a tough test. Roar beat the reigning champions / premiers SFC and the losing preliminary finalist from last year (MV) in their first 2 games, before they lost in Wellington last week. After a 3 week layoff, we may be a bit rusty and need the run. Tameka Yallop played 45 mins for them in R2 and 60 mins in R3 so she is probably close to lasting 90 this week.

Our biggest 2 signings (Simon and Dumont) will be watching from the stands so all up we should be the underdogs but what I have seen of this team so far I think we can still get the job done.

West stand is open so there is absolutely no excuse not to get there early and give them some support.

Dumont finally announced. Great signing for us.

Assume we got her cheaper because others not prepared to let her play both sports.

She said MV sacked her on twitter because she wanted to play both.

Considering AFLW Is during the start of the ALW season it’s not unreasonable. Think it would be different if they didn’t collide but allows us to be more free thinking to get quality players.

It’s a shame professionalism has hurt dual players but i get it.

Was always interesting to follow dual sports players like Dion Sanders in NFL and Baseball and plenty others and they bloody good as well

Not sure why Bryson isn’t playing? Thought she’d be back after her red this week

allows us to be more free thinking

Someone in the ALW marketing section would be happy to know they've gotten into your head.

On a more serious note there's been US based players that dont play a whole season so I cant see how this is too much different beyond the pissing contest between codes..

 

[true believer]

No simon

Injured - no idea how serious.

Injured - no idea how serious.

That sucks, bad luck to be injured when you haven’t been playing!

 

[gemkayem]

I hate how there’s no ground mics on these games, and the comms are so loud

 

[Josho Howe]

I'm a fan of tac fouls but not sure about taking one 3 minutes in

Hold the ball girls!
