Can't say I know much about this team.
  • I hope #7 can turn herself into a good halfback because she was a very good 5/8.
  • I thought after another off season, #21 might have turned into a very good winger or centre. Seems not. Maybe the wingers are just really good.
  • Last year their main problem was the lack of big, tough middle forwards. They were able to go with the Rorters and Donkeys for large parts of the game but just couldn't hold them in the middle for the 70min. They typically ending up conceding a lot of points in the last 15min.

22-4 up at the break vs Parramatta. Team still looks way lighter, as it relates to weight, across the field but coach has them doing a lot of dummy half running followed by a couple of passes to backrowers on the edge, i.e. staying away from an arm wrestle in the middle. It's really troubling the big Eels ladies.

First half standouts:
  • Kasey Reh (She's having a blinder)
  • Taliah Fuimaono
  • Ella Kosta

Eels came out fired up for the second half and scored early to make it 22-8. And that was it. No more scoring in the half. Eels had more ball and better field position but our girls were good enough to hold them out and get a comfortable victory in the end.

Next year we get back both Alexis Tauaneai & Angelina Teakaraanga-Katoa, which should give us some bigger bodies and good go forward..
We need some more pace out in the backs, Keele Browne (good defender, 100% effort) and Jayme Millard are too slow and don't give us much in attack, with Teagan Berry moving on next year we will need more pace and someone with an X factor, i know Emma Verran is coming back, not sure if she can handle fullback now or will move into the 5/8 roll, we also have Montaya Hudson who is supposed to be very fast and elusive, i would be looking into moving her onto the wing possibly in place of Millard, only issue Millard is our goal kicker even though she isnt that good at it..

Totally agree, still dirty they allowed Berry to walk. Millard's kicking style is a bit awkward but she is a warrior,
