Injury update:

Chiocci (concussion) and Sheridan (knee) will both be tested this week.
Team announced on Saturday so they have time to prove fitness, Aish may need another week.

great to see Chiocci back. So too Sheridan love her if she passes her tests.
Really like Sheridan. Aishlen i think is her first name.

interesting on Taylor omitted thought she was playing well and good form.

Collingwood to win this one by say 17 points.

Win and it sets up a top 4 spot.

Play third ranked freo next in perth so need to win this one.

[23 YIPPEE!!!]

I meant freo are third bottom of the ladder
GWS todays opponent is middle of the ladder
Pies get the job done today

So security at today's game was not allowing any unsealed liquid containers into the game! A problem for me as I always have a frozen cordial in a plastic bottle. I tried to tell them that this was not a footy rule, but as usual they are right and the patron is wrong. Me thinks they have concert security at AFLW games this week. So I had to throw away my only bottle, as of course half of it was frozen! Pretty disappointing if this is going to continue for the rest of the season. Will have to hide it next game!
And I know first world problem! But having to go to a water fountain when I'm thirsty is just a hassle!

[23 YIPPEE!!!]

Collingwood won 46 to gws 14

[Dark Beanie]

They didn’t check whether the two bottles I had were sealed or not.
One was, the other wasn’t - a refilled water bottle.

You must have lucked in with an officious bag checker Maurs.

my 3,2 and 1 go to :

3. Lauren Brazzale played a top game and came across from the vfl nice midfield bull type of player hard to tackle and nice run and kick
2. Eliza James just keeps getting the job done good versitile forward and now mid
1. Was a tie between Chloe Molly and captain Stephanie Chiocci both played top games.

Was a clincical game Pies if kicked those early goals had the game done by quarter time.

Lead the way only gave up 2 easy goals in the last 7 mins of the match.

Good solid performance and everyone chipped in.

Next games v a lowly Freo in perth then North at VP the weekend after.

Final score: Pies 6.10.46 defeated GWS 2.2.14

Goals: Molloy 2, Brown, Cann, Chiocci, Rowe

Best: Lambert, Molloy, Downie, Allen, Cann, Sansonetti

No injuries to report.

Lauren Brazzale was traded from Carlton ALFW during the off season.

[23 YIPPEE!!!]

Nice pick up brazzale a bargain and going to get better handy player

[23 YIPPEE!!!]

Nice team similar to the blokes of having good depth and a nice mix of young and old.

Like Cann James and Downie.
