West Coast put an end to the Cats finals hopes in a rather lopsided win in the end. If the Eagles manage to make finals,they'll have earned it more than anyone after facing Geelong, Sydney and Carlton in the final 3 rounds - all teams vying for finals themselves. Daisy has as much buy-in as any coach in the league and they have young talent to burn all over the ground.
I'm not sure where the Cats go from here as they seem to have talent all over the ground as well but just haven't put it together this year and after drawing with North Melbourne just last season, have gone for just 8 wins and 11 losses since.
The Dees cemented themselves as the 2nd best side in it right now and the Swans now have a rather large battle on their hands to make finals after being an almost shoe-in a month ago and are fading fast so hopefully the inclusion of Molloy and Hurley can be the catalyst for a return to consistent form.
GWS's forward 50 connection woe's were again an issue, losing by just 7 points after being -18 in inside 50's and -14 for clearances, yet +2% in time in possession. If they can add that final piece of forward half connection they could make a jump next season but at the moment, but the loss of Parker has hurt them in 2 ways.
1 - Goldsworthy is not playing forward as much as they would have planned
and;
2 - Getting killed at clearance means they have to generate their offense from their defensive 50 and that's not sustainable for 99% of teams in AFLW (i.e. not North Melbourne)
They are a mirror image of their men's team.
Today we look at:
- Poor Geelong Defense
- Center Bounce Clearance x 2
- Sargent-Wilson Run
- Poor GWS Defense
- GWS Kick Out
