Back to struggling to field a team - that is less than ideal given our draw over the next few weeks.

We desperately need at least three of the top four on that list to play this week.

If Tayla is right to go and Heater, Saraid and Lampy are all Ok this week that's a big jump forward. Then hopefully Blaithin and Georgia G next week and, providing no one else goes down, that's about as good as it will get this year. I'm assuming Beasley won't be back, I don't know if it would be wise to bring her in for finals having basically missed two seasons.

So now probably isn’t a good time to tell you that Goldy collided hard with Ryleigh at training yesterday and ended up with a split on her brow-bone which was “glued” but which saw her unable to attend a function last night.

Ryleigh was sporting a gash and bruise right in the middle of her forehead but said it’s not as bad as it looks.

We now await the injury report 🤞🏽

Do we have employee in the women's program whose job it is to smash mirrors/walk under ladders/encourage black cats to cross their path?

With Goldy out she would be an ideal in...

It's now not only about being able to field a competitive side this week, but also a race against time to build some form and match fitness prior to the finals.
