If a huge vagina made you scared of men it might be outrageous.

Its not the size of the ship but the motion in the ocean that counts, right?
Imagine if a guy disputed facts on here with something like " its because of your enormous vagina ".
Oh the outrage.

Overestimating the women’s comp would be saying that there are two women who could play with the men. Not saying that one half-jokingly could.

Whilst Tyson-Thomas wouldn't embarrass herself going against the men, no way does she beat an 18 year old plus man consistently. Would pick up a few points in a game to 11 but would be beaten 999 out of 1000 games. Might make it in a pinch in a wnbl team, but as mentioned 15 year old boys beat a wnbl team.
Grow up some people. It's not a slight on females. She may have some skills better than men, but strength and physically men will be better.

“Probably the best women’s player is better than some end of bench reserves men’s players” isn’t really SJW is it?

Thinking this is SJW based is far worse than anything that bloke has posted.

If you don’t think she’d be a bench player on half the teams you’re an idiot. Who on Forestvilles apart from Rios is better for example. It’s okay fellas, keep being intimidated.

Both of Sturt's PL jobs are advertised. That's common to a lot of clubs, after a coaches contract is up the job is advertised. Doesn't mean the current coach won't apply and get it. I'm speaking generally, I don't know the specifics of the Sturt situation.

Both was part of a grander plan at west... awareness by some borders on ignorance.show some respect.

Just to back up the above, I know of Mick's history in the game but are too young to have seen him coach previously. Also never said a word to him in my life.

Saying that I think he's done a good job at Woodville. Sure he runs a lot of flex and it's not the space and pick and roll modern style that the game is trending towards but it's a system that still can create advantages and seeing some of his trainings at St Clair he seems to have a group that are competitive and playing together.

Won't comment on Boti.

Sort of agree with the above. Micks proven himself as a legendary coach, demanding accountability and standards from his players. Was a big surprise to see him come back and take over Woodvilles women. Indeed there were a lot of who's this old guy, won't have a clue about any new trends or fancy drills but I'd take him every time over Petty etc.
As for Boti, yeah, good on him for being a journalist and his contributions there. But it's like having Craig Hutchinson taking over the Carlton coaching job. Can write and do some dad jokes but can't coach.

You know what I really like Boti & Ossy for what they have done for the game other than coaching. Boti's media and just plain knowledge is unpassable in this state. Mike Osborne is a legend at NCT, 36ers and the Weststars plus Proball was an institution for the sport.
Lots of "johnny come latelys" in this competition in both mens and womens that have zero understanding of the past and what these individuals have actually done over a long long time. Sit and take some time to appreciate those that still give back to our sport.

Cheateagles just exist in a realm of win at all cost. Thankfully good guys like the bearcats can take then down. Mountain men are the true crusaders this year.

Yeah 225. So far off the mark... better looking at player / club needs and talent available. West classic have struggle because player depth has changed. Eagles continue strong performance because bring in hired guns. Study going youth policy. Coaches all have different mindsets as to how success will happen.
Get off coaches back. Mavs south sturt are rebuilds in action. Worm will turn.

Sutton has actually done a great job with a team that didn't even exist 7 months ago!
Not much consistency in the Womens comp and I definitely would not rate it as a great talent competition with many going to college or basically deciding not to play.

PL Coach appointments and non-appointments 2020

Men's

Safe
Forestville, Mount Gambier, North, Southern, Norwood.
50/50
West & Centrals (only if Ricky & Corey decide they don’t want it)
Vacancies
Sturt, South, Eastern & Woodville. (The only one that may be safe is Jamie who is in season number 1). Whitmore 3 seasons, Warhurst 4 seasons and Casella 2 seasons all have done very little.
COY – Close race, but if you decided this on talent available then it would be Rogers or Nyberg. Probably will go South with the title to Richard Hill and the Mount.

Women’s

Safe
Sturt, Forestville, Eastern, Mount Gambier & West
50/50
Southern, Woodville (weird appointment), North & Norwood with first year coaches will most likely get another gig.
Vacancies
Centrals (KB disappointing), South (lots of hype and promise but no results. Dickel should spend 100% on developing the club as this is a priority)
COY – Monica but don’t rule out Billington or Boti as dark horses.

Sturt men suggest otherwise.

Al probably twice the price of Petty too.

Regardless of who Dickel or Petty recruit, you can’t change the culture in one season.

South men will finish last. That's what you get for hiring a coach who actually can't coach.
And everyone had a crack at Al!!!!!

When was the last Southern choke? They also came from 15 down to make a game of it against a very good opponent. Think it was a high quality game from two solid playoff teams.

Compared to last year Dickel has done fantastic, and I quite dislike him personally btw. At least they score over 20 a game. Looking at Centrals, the women there have slid, mainly because their 2nd import didn't return, was going to be late anyway but stuck around in Europe. Considering the money they threw at KB and Boone, between the 2 they would have the budget of most women's teams. New president was supposed to change things but was really a puppet for his wife to get those 2. Members should ask at AGM the player payments, KBs were mostly under the table.
North and Norwood also very disappointing despite losing players, Eastern a contender behind the play of their import, haven't looked at every box score but she would be a hall's favourite.
As for Petty, is anyone really surprised apart from him jagging a couple of wins. Apart from Hoppo who's gone, is their any juniors coming through or he developed anyone? Jonnek has gone way backward, result of going to shit team, not a bright spark amongst them. Would be asking more of the junior development more than anything.

Tigers v Eagles a ripper game, well coached by Deano to come back but major letdown on their last defensive play to let De Witt get the lay-up with only 10 seconds on the game clock and up 1.

Yeah the Mount do look good. Not sure what your uncertainty is with North, on an 8 gsme winning streak and also look real good. Eagles have the firepower to go with both as well. Cant see anyone else going with those three.

Even with the sacking of another import, vets getting past it but supposedly great bearcat talent, their performances and record this year alone leans towards something is not right.

Fine line between success and disappointed. Fact one import hurts. Vets have aged. Young guns are young. Missing west big out. Not the coach not the players just how has evolved. Bring in 2 solid imports add another decent local and results chang.e. no need for panic or overreaction as the doom Sayers claim.

Can’t be Corey’s fault. Coach of the year and easily the best coach in the league. Players have under performed this year.

That's crap about west. Young guys getting plenty of opportunities. Why would they leave. Couple of vets and rest gettìng valuable experience. Compare some other squads whose bench only wave towels.
