I just cannot understand why Brisbane was moved from the first test to now? There’s a REASON it’s the first test of the summer…. Before it gets too far into wet season!? Maybe this is confirmation bias but I could see this coming from a mile away 🤦🏻‍♀️ #AUSvIND

The #AFLW FA/Trade period has been and gone, and the draft is coming on Monday. Here are my thoughts on the key draft needs for all 18 teams going into the first fully national draft 🧵

Cheers #AFLWFantasy 🧢

Looks like pick 8 will be on the table for Essendon #AFLW in this trade deal, but I get the sense that Richmond will be keen to atone for their loss of Eilish Sheerin by playing hard ball... Feels like a lot still to play out

Big #AFLW news from Riley Beveridge - Breed to Pies would be a serious coup, and if Essendon were able to secure Yassir for Paige Scott, it might help soothe the pain of losing a former top 10 pick. Tayla Harris feels like a last second deadline deal at best... www.afl.com.au/aflw/news/12...

Had this post 'break containment' (ty @thebackpocketau.bsky.social for the phrase) 1. It's funny how often people tell themselves, saying I've called them racists/homophobes 2. Alarming how much less vitriol there is in the comments vs @eloiseg31.bsky.social's post about the A Leagues/Trump Gif...

100 replies on this on “Twitter” All bar 3 are intended as attacks. I’ve had to hide multiple comments calling me a b*tch, D*ddy supporter, d*ke, f*ggot, p*ssy…. Although, the contradiction of comments telling me to “cry more” & those asking why I’m still crying is quite funny.

Said this on that other app and you can imagine what all 22 of those replies were 🙃

Now that the dust has settled on the #AFLW Grand Final, I have had a chance to gather my thoughts on what I think each team needs to target in the upcoming Trade/Free Agency and Draft period! I'll be doing a post for each team, starting with Collingwood!

While GCS underperformed this year, I think their overall list needs improving. Fascinating as well to see no coaching change at GWS yet, who, in my opinion, have the better list, but are also underperforming on field. From the outside looking in, both club operations seem poor.

Based on my lip reading, Yallop told the ref to “switch [her] fucken brain on” and I respect that #AUSvBRA

Garner 🐐

Kanga kanga kanga

Not sure I like waiting around all day for a night Grand Final

It’s #AFLW Christmas Day (read Grand Final Saturday) - here are my thoughts ahead of tonight’s game!   PS. It’s a longer one this week

Game has started poorly for the Tillies, in spite of having some great space between the middle and forward thirds Sucks that Fowler is out, this is the type of game where she could have dominated #AUSvBRA

2025 #AFLFantasy positions are in. www.afl.com.au/news/1259787...

I thought I’d switched over from watching Harry Potter

The Jasmine Garner cloak of invisibility is in full effect tonight #AFLW

Noffy ❤️

I feel like we need to get Jacob Gaynor on board with Bluesky and AFL clubs will follow

It’s #AFLW Prelim Finals time here are some of my thoughts! Port @ North 🔑s to victory PTA: Make M. King/Tripod win the mids battle, not Garner/Riddell. Get f50 entries deep enough to force Ferguson/Birch into 1v1s NTH: Avoid complacency, you have the better DEFs, MIDs & FWDs Prediction: NTH 21 pts

We’re so back #AUSvIND 🏏

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy

I have a million & one thoughts about Wayne Carey & this article (clearly sees himself as an innocent victim 🙄… why are you even throwing wine at someone?) But I can’t help but find it stupidly hilarious that at 52 he thinks he’s only got 9 good summers left, yet is about to have another child…

RIP Saint KFC 🍗

Before it gets mentioned, yes, I know that this is a completely inconsequential part of AFL media, and it shouldn't bug me. Alas, it does, because I am the way I am, @eloiseg31.bsky.social can attest.

I think I’ve listened to enough of Warner for the summer already

So glad there has been some common sense with no compressed game weeks in next years AFLW fixture. I’m sure they will still find some way to mismanage things 🫣 but it’s a start.

2025 #AFLW season is set to begin in the second week of August with no double game weeks 🙌🏻

If I had a dollar for every time the winner of the McClelland trophy who finished in second place on the AFLW ladder proceeded to go out of the finals in straight sets, I'd have two dollars. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it has happened twice! #AFL #AFLW

What a game! What a comeback! As a bomber I have to say I’m happy to see the Hawks lose sorry Hawks fans 😅 #AFLWHawksPort

#AFLW Fremantle getting smashed by Adelaide once the ball leaves the first layer of a stoppage, don't have the speed to keep up with Newman, Kelly, Munyard

Matchups which will decide the game FRE @ ADE - Strom v Allan, McCarthy vs Marinoff, Brazill vs Gould PTA @ HAW - Borg/Germech vs McDonagh, Houghton vs Richardson, O'Dea vs Bodey OR Gilroy #AFLW

Port Adelaide @ Hawthorn 🔑s to victory PTA: Moloney must run w/ West & Hammond should tag Bates/Fleming, and hope Houghton, Saint, Teakle take marks i50 HAW: Continue to slice and dice in transition & don't get sucked into PTA's 'metres gained > everything' game style Prediction: HAW 23pts #AFLW

To increase the #AFLW content here, here are some of my thoughts about today's semi finals. Fremantle @ Adelaide 🔑s to victory FRE: Occupy Prowse & Biddell w/ talls and win the f50 ground ball gets ADE: Exploit the speed of Ponter, Newman & Kelly to dominate clearances Prediction: ADE 18pts

Love AFLW? Here's a quick starter pack to get you going. Think you or someone else should be on the list? Add the handle in the comments. WE WANT MORE. go.bsky.app/B5XxWNd
