Looking forward to an interesting year. Any player movement rumors ;-)
Hearing that the Jets have told all WLeague players they need to head to Sydney for the next WPL season to get a higher level of challenge.
Will have a significant impact on the quality and development of the local WPL comp if true.
Makes sense
That's going to hurt the quality of the competition a lot.Originally Posted by Barry Dawson;23***8
Speaking of which is Tara Andrews staying at New Lambton?
No heading to Manly.
I don't think the local WPL is the problem - the Jets this season would have been very competitive if they brought in some imports - like a playmaker and someone to assist Tara Andrews up front rather than have her tracking back so often to start the movement forward.
Telling players they need a higher level challenge in Sydney is just another example of the Jets ownership / Executive shifting the blame for their own lack of vision and investment in the team.
I thought the local girls did very well this year and with just one or two more high level players / imports that squad would have been knocking on the door come finals time.
New Lambton 2- Broadmeadow 2
Any trial news? Should be gearing up two weeks out from the season starting
I think the Newcastle Olympic WPL team playing West Wallsend Youth and the Adamstown Rosebud WPL team playing South Cardiff youth teams has a hell of a lot to do with WPL.
And considering the poster asked about trail news in the 2020 Women's Premier League thread I responded giving news about two WPL clubs and trails they help.

Olympic 3 Warner’s bay 0
Speaking of Warners Bay, where are they intending to play start of the season? All away games? Went past John Street Oval the other day and it's still being worked on.
Friday night Magic v Thornton
New Lambton vs Adamstown at #2 on Sunday - we had a good crowd (estimated at 300) for the Merewether v New Lambton game at #2 last weekend.
Olympic vs Merewether at Darling St Sunday (a derby??)
WB up at Taree.
Get along and support women's football!
Surely your derby is still when you play Adamstown as the two oldest clubs in the comp especially since now you have the Friendship Cup (who came up with that name?)
I'd personally say Magic and Olympic would still be derby day between the two harking back to the Wallsend-South Wallsend derby
