Re: WNPL/WSL Pro/Rel

anyone who has been following the women's game and knows football will see that we clearly do not have the depth for promotion and relegation, so you relegate two clubs promote two clubs all you are doing is giving the rest of the wnpl new clubs to boost their goal average against. Someone has alrea...

womens match big test for both Matildas and USA teams tonight USA team looked all over the shop against NZ , two of their goals were own goals from NZ , the USA looked a bit of a rabble.

SK causing trouble again - no wonder they played terrible in second half they are focussed on the wrong things, lost the second half 1-0 and showed signs of frustration. With that attitude be lucky to win another game.

very poor form by both sides with the flag, and the knee down.. The problem with doing things like that there will be players in the team who do not agree to it but will be bullied into it. 2-1 against a side that has had little preparation and wont win a game is nothing to get excited about.

Re: ash barty

Great win for Barty, all she needs to do now is give players who beat her ( which is not often ) more credit and not make excuses, give her opponent some credit.
She praises the players she beats , to make her win sound better now needs to do it when she loses.

I think that if the Women's State League had been set up with Reserves sides required as well, that likely would have happened.
if they all have a second senior side they could look at that next season.

not a bad idea, even split them into two groups of 4 so they all play three matches and the top team in each group play the cup final.
