AFLW INSIGHTS 2021 – ROUND 9
2 FULL POSTS OF NORTH MELBOURNE CENTER CLEARANCES North Melbourne have a banger of a midfield group consisting of elite ball winners and probably the most experience by far in regards to games played and coupled with their unselfishness and cohesion, are near impossible to defend against at center ball up plays.

UNECESSARY GOLD COAST HANDBALL MY TAKE You’re on the burst…you get a clean take off the deck in congestion…you have great momentum directly towards your goal…you actually have an opening on your direct trajectory to run through directly out of the congested area…you have huge potential to kick deep into your forward line…take it –...

AFLW INSIGHTS – ROUND 7 PART 4
GOLD COAST POSSESSION FOOTBALL MY TAKE This was pretty much precisely the point in the 2nd quarfter where the Suns changed the momentum of the game and all it takes is a little bit of possession football, taking the options afforded to you by the opposition. Here Gold Coast able to get a mark to...
