Great OP, one edit:

Thanks everyone, keep corrections coming as you see them, it's hard to proof read your own stuff especially when it's mixed up with BBCode so it's much appreciated.

Greater Western Sydney (or GWS for short)
Nickname: Giants, while the Orange Crush seems to becoming a thing
Home colours: Orange and charcoal, with a white stylised G.
First AFL season: 2012
Premierships: none - best finish was 11th in 2015
2016 ladder: 4th 16-6-0 64pts

Best finish was 2016 :)

Also you list the Lions as a merger of Fitzroy and Brisbane Lions when it should be Bears.

What's the AFLW heat policy? Looking at the forecast there might be some games in 35-40+ temperatures

Gary complained about kids being brought on the ground before the game not after.
Has complained about it previously when blokes have brought their young kids on the ground to run through the banners too.

Why though? Is he worried they're gonna get stuck in the banner or something?

Also there's no Vic v Vic game kicking off the round that no one else cares about :P

Port will be taking on GWS without Ryder next week, that'll help, and it was the stupidest thing

Maybe Knight got Ryder below the belt accidentally or something, but it just looks like he loving snaps and has a go. Gotta be 2 weeks at least.

Apparently if you want to watch the Crows live and don't have Foxtel they expect you to ship your arse interstate. Two interstate games not live on FTA, but Port home games are :psyduck:

Daniel Talia hobbles off the ground the first minute of the game with a hamstring injury. Riley Knight leaves the game with minutes left in the last, and has his hamstring iced as a precaution against a slight twinge.

Riley Knight is going to miss a week with a hamstring strain. Daniel Talia has no hamstring injury and will play this week.

:what:

One guy played on it, the other got it massaged for two hours. Who do you think is going to pull up better?
