    Re: AFLW - Bulldogs Women's Team Games thread

    katie brennan and Daisy Pearce were the two original so called marque players of the fledgling competition and Brennan gave us little return with the media jumping on Pearce and her face being on TV more and Melbourne getting better exposure.
    Brennan has been off the park more times than on and I can understand her seeking better opportunities she could also have stuck with the club and gave us some return on the faith.
    Conti is just pure disappointment as I think she is a better player than Brennan.
    So stuff Richmond.
    Brisbane has been another club that has suffered more so with Harris than Frederick.

    Edit: I saw Ashmore so that's another good player the Lions lost.

    That shit ain't right and they can jam their competition as far as I am concerned.

    I’m actually looking at these players going as a plus, we needed something new , a new coach and a new outlook, Let’s face it Brennan and Conti I respect but let’s look at the Griffin loss, we were nothing last year with them.
    Rejuvenate and refresh , I think we will do well this year because of it.
    Richmond were pantsed last night, so called stars in this competition are no good if you haven’t got all the players with decent skills and talent.
    It’s a young Comp and a lot of players still aren’t up To a good standard but it is quickly improving.
    A balance of having none that are stars and all with talent is better than a couple of stars and a drop away of talent in the last 8 of your list.
    Bring back the biff

    I watched the last quarter and thought the standard has risen again. The game is improving every year, but the big mistake is having such a short season, and playing in summer conditions.

    Maybe when every team has a team they will be the curtain raisers to the men.

    One of the attractions for fans is the suburban feel and atmosphere, but agree I think sometimes there should be a curtain raiser.

    I'd prefer the girls to have their own comp. Playing them as curtain raisers just feels a little disrespectful to me.

    Sort of like a pat on the head for being good girls but you will never be the same as the big boys.
    Have you been reading those Roddy Doyle books again, Dougal!?


    I have, yeah Ted, you big gobshite

    True but it would help with the cost of having to run a different venue and and the support that goes with it.
    The girls would need to be on full time wages to cover a full season.

    TV coverage would already be at the ground so they don't need to be in two places.
