Essendon sacks AFLW coach following one-win season, Blues keep top four hopes alive
- Hawthorn will remain anxious after their win over Essendon, though they are not faring worse than the Bombers, who sacked their coach after her one-win season.
- The Bombers told Natalie Wood this week they would not renew her contract, but both parties chose to wait until after Sunday's 3.7 (25) to 3.2 (20) loss to the Hawks to inform players, coaches and staff.
- The scores were level at half-time and Essendon's defensive structure was impressive, keeping the Hawks scoreless in the final quarter.
