Re: Lady Reds In Disarray

The development squads and programmes are good if done in the right way, and I have been saying for over 12 months now that our current set up and structure is not working and I wont go in to the reasons why - if they cant see that they need to go too. Our young developing players are missing out, b...

Re: The Roar v The Reds

not our best game, very slow getting started our defenders caught ball watching yet again take into consideration no team has won coming off a bye, yet. Watch the highlights and you will see how much we watch the ball and not the players when defending First two goals, will show you six defenders ag...

not even half way already writing Lady Reds off ? Hopefully they have worked on their finishing / shooting, and get their first win again Roar. This will be high scoring game Roar defense is not the quickest, our defense ball watch too much. I feel there will be some surprise results in all matches ...

Re: AUFC-W v Melbourne City

AUFC have matched all 3 teams they have played so far, only difference between them and top 3 sides is not converting their opportunities. I hope they work on their finishing skills during their bye weekend. Looking at highlights of other matches from last week, Canberra were very lucky against Jets...

Re: W League season 2019/20

That hurts to get so close, games like this where we play well we need to come away with something. Should we have just bottled the game up last 5 minutes of each half ? Conceded a goal just before half time, conceded a goal just before full time, lapse in concentration, other lack of discipline. We...

From what I am reading there players who have played injury free all through winter season in the WNPL , and when selected to train with W league squad they get injured ? - if that is the case, something is not right.
