Fork in the road this match lose and finals looks like a bye bye win and finals is back on the cards.

This match will be like the litmus test we need and to see where we are really at.

Its the season defineing match.

Collingwood its a must win.

[23 YIPPEE!!!]

expect a tight tough game v the scraggers the dogs.

It will be a scrap be prepared.

[Dark Beanie]

Must win for both teams - Pies to stay in the top 6, the Dogs trying to get into finals contention.

There may be late changes as Elle Chaston and Imogen Purcell did not play for the VFLW earlier today.

Nice to see the coaches take my advice from weeks ago on this forum. Fredericks to the goal square & Molloy in the middle!

[Dark Beanie]

Good fight back in 2nd qtr when it looked they would over run by the dogs.

Pies lead 6.2 to 3.3.

Going to be tough in the 2nd half as down 2 on the bench. Britt (1st qtr ) and Aleisha (2nd qtr) both went into the rooms and not returned

[What'sinaname]

It's a funny game the AFLW.

The girls go through periods where they look like Auskickers and then they switch it on and look better than our mens team.

Must frustrating AF for the coaches.

Great fighting win yesterday at viccy park.

Thinking we are finally starting to kick goals.

We seamed to play better along the wing.

Again we get undone when we go into the corridoor.

Early in the game we struggled getting out of our defend 50 and turned the ball over far too many times which in turn lead to Dogs goals.

Good to see we are marking in our f50 a bit more.

Nice to see Fredrick making an impact finally.

Fingers crossed for Bonnici knee though we can not afford andother acl injury. At best she will miss next match and next and if we make finals she will be back.

Still need 1 more win the shore up a finals spot.

Tough match crows away in adl next.

Tigers at vic park after that.

Beat the crows we are in the finals.

Fingers crossed for bonnici.

Bugger.
