Probably will be playing for the sharks in 2018. The fact Carlscum got a licence ahead of us is a disgrace. A disgrace named Mike Fitzpatrick.

This is a concern of mine. What happens to the girls who are taken by the initial eight clubs that should be aligned with St.Kilda? Do we automaticlly get them back when our team commences, or are they lost forever?

Moana is a beautiful name...it is also a suburb next to Seaford in Adelaide. Also a "moana" is a beach type shelter

Should be pinged again for wasting everyone's time.


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules. 
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!

Well can anyone answer my above question? Do the Saints have access to the girls taken by other clubs that would otherwise be playing for the Saints, when the Saints women's team sta'rts up?

Has anyone bothered to ask how many legit, registered week-to week women's footy players there are around the country?

The AFL carried on recently as if they invented women's sport. The Matilda's, the Opals, the Netty players have been around for a fair while. Even Aussie has a women's baseball and softball team which have competed at Olympic level!

Not objecting to the league, but there is a weird amount of PR hype for this, so I am checking the real substance/agenda behind it.....


USELESS FACT: The WADA case against Essendon (in Sydney as well) is exactly 10 years to the day that Australia qualified for the 2006 FIFA World Cup.

Pretty decent participation levels for women's football in Victoria.

Haven't heard the AFL claiming that they have broken ground that the other women's sport leagues and teams haven't already done, apart from starting a national women's AFL league, which is what they have done. People will see an agenda if it suits their existing opinion.
