Aflw 2022/2023

Re: Aflw 2022

Kirsty McLeod will be a handy addition to the forward line after missing the season with injury. Good speed and goal sense.

She missed with concussion I think? So no guarantee that she actually is available, unless you've heard otherwise...

Re: Aflw 2022

Article on the aflw website this morning explaining the expansion process - the total compensation for losing up to four players will be keeping our first round pick. No additional picks.

Well, number 1 when we finish last I guess :/

This will be using the ladder from the season recently completed - we finished 7th, which (ignoring the expansion clubs) would give us pick 8, effectively pick 5 in the Victorian draft.

The already struggling saints have also been decimated. The demons are yet again losing no significant players.

Re: Aflw 2022

Getting ridiculous now, losing all our talls:

Dons set to land key Dogs back
- Ellyse Gamble gone.

Re: Aflw 2022

Fark! I sick of expansion teams go pick on the finalists they got there for a reason.

We're doing a unforced rebuild.

How do you explain the Demons situation JD?

Outside of footy incentives?

The women definitely understand the strength of the different clubs and their women's programs, and unfortunately we don't have a great reputation at the moment.

The Demons have a strong reputation, and Daisy Pearce.

Interesting tidbit - Steph Chiocci, inaugural captain of Collingwood and ex diamond creek captain, has a rule that they are not allowed to recruit anyone who played at Darebin (ruling out most of the top players).

That is interesting re Darebin as they were so successful.

Wonder why we would be on the nose considering we are one of the foundation clubs and have an AFL hall of fame GM.

AFLW is cooked.

Re: Aflw 2022

Its certainly very disappointing to lose Toogood, Lochland, Gamble and Huntington

Hopefully our investment in the draft over the past few years will help us cover these losses

Oh if it’s so cooked then how come their next draft has 36 picks in the first round? Would a cooked competition be able to fit that many picks into the first round.

FYI we finished 7th, so we have the 24th pick.

I think now that all AFL sides have a women's team, the competition will settle down, and trading and drafting will become similar to the men's comp.

The AFL always said the talent must be spread around the teams as the new ones came in. Unfortunately, as usual, we are the ones that got screwed the most.

The club planned for this and took some early draft picks over the past couple of years, and hopefully it all comes to fruition.

Over the journey we would go close to losing the most players.

Are you suggesting I should once again complain about how we got no compensation for losing either Tony McGuinness and Kym Koster to Adelaide?
