FFSA wanted to release the squad next week...looks like they may have just done so accidentally with this

[juniorsupporter]

Not sure that the team list for Sunday represents the finial squad list- for instance Jess Waterhouse isn't on there, and also there are only 19 listed- would think that final list will be 20. Does give us a bit of an idea though. For a couple of girls this Sunday could be a very important opportunity.

Well it does appear there has been a massive turnover of players, maybe for the best. I feel that Ross is going to pick players that have the right attitude which I feel has been a problem in the past

I think you will find that this is the final squad. 19 + Waterhouse = 20.

lol

[Stand Strong]

Seriously is that the real score. If so what went wrong

[scipio africanus]

Its only 'pre-season', but today's game would have hit confidence and morale.

When teams get flogged that heavy it invariably means they barely left their own defensive half.

Defense is of great concern, made up of makeshift defenders.

Still I have great faith in RA but I fear he has been handed a poison chalice.

I didn't think anything really went wrong - the lads NTC team were massively superior in skill, technique, speed, strength & structure.
Great hit out for the Lady Reds, MB got a good work out in goals.
Large coaching bench will be required for the Lady Reds on game day...Pezos, Porter, Jenkins, Tate & Hargreaves. And that was without Aloisi being there!

[SalleH78]

They need to know where they are at and where as ayers they need to improve to even compete with 15 year old boys, mind you they are supposed to be the best in the state so it was not probably a good start up game

[bapa]

pre-season or not, thats a flogging to the under 15 boys.
Ross must me thinkin... "What have I got myself into, this time"!

+1
The boys were just so far ahead it wasn't funny. The girls tried hard but the boys were able to read their play far too easily and were rarely put under any real pressure.
Keeping the ball is one thing, but you won't win games if you don't score and it looks like AU are still going to be missing that link up play between the midfield and forwards.

Loved the shots of Bubs and Kristy (y)

[El Capitano]

0-11 thanks for the laugh, exams had me down.

Our W-league squad is garbage, I think they're aiming for their 6th wooden spoon

[Caretaker Coach]

Pardon my ignorance, what age is NTC please ? Just curious, to give you an idea what age / skill level the women's team should aim for, when the Matildas were getting ready for the 1995 World Cup, they played a state NSW U/14 boys side , boys side won 5-0.
Just to use that as an example, I think the W league side were punching well above their weight against a NTC side ( depending what age they are ? )
Maybe W League team should play them again at end of the W league season ?

[hurlcrook]

Whats the big deal. Boys thrashing girls at soccer.
Whatd you really expect?

Maybe there not made for soccer-
tennis netball basketball lacrosse maybe better suited to.

SASI Women used to beat U16 boys teams all the time.

We've been through this before.

Is it the white pills or the orange ones you keep forgetting to take?

With some help from the officials who wouldn't allow tackling

Waste of time for the boys, unless they got a couple of phone numbers.

[gunners01]

Well would of loved 2 have seen w-league girls playing the girls NTC squad THAT WOULD OF BEEN A GREAT game, a shame Ross didn't arrange ,maybe hes afraid the local girls would thrash the interstaters xx

[God is an Englishman]

Wrong forum

[Red-4-Life]

Gee after the result I really hope that isn't the final squad (barring a few players)

[General Ashnak]

NTC is under 15s, I'm really worried about the selections again. Kristy and Bubs are definitely up to scratch but I am not sold on the rest - though I am also showing a massive amount of bias there.
