Did u see how good she was against freo stop putting our players down

Izzy G was imo poor in some games this year & last year. Tendency to kick straight to oppo, often well beaten 1 on 1. She was good vs Freo & has been ok in patches this year & prior years. Perhaps the new contract will give her the confidence to blossom. I think she has the skills, just needs to be more reliable and calm. I think we have making of a much improved backline now with Kimber, Gorham etc. In past it’s been a hiding to nothing being in our backline (or forward line for that matter). So that will help too. Go Granty!!

She's not up to it and hasn't shown much to lead me to believe she'll make it. 44 games is a big enough window.

Gorham and Kimber look like solid talls and Buttifant looks like an excellent interceptor. Not sure how Grant got a game all year in front of Eleanor Brown if I'm honest. There are better options than Grant deep and we lacked run off half back. Should have played Brown.

Being the Director of Football's Daughter does have its perks though.

As I mentioned some posts back it may be more beneficial to move her up the ground.

That’s ridiculous . Being related to someone has nothing to do with it, that’s not how things work in football nowadays.
You say 44 games is enough to know but we hear experts in AFL say it takes 50 games to get a proper read.
She has had the hardest position to play at our club the last two years battling top forwards in a side that has had no one else to support her.
This year is the only year we seemed to have started to build some sort of backline.
I don’t think she will be a star but she will be a solid back in a well structured back line.
