Lampy is here, rehabbing. She said she should be right by round 7. It’s her calf but it’s not too serious.

Great to see Tahls running. She’s progressing well. As is Jacinta. Last Friday she ran without incident and it was clearly her first time in a while since everyone got around her, much cheering and clapping.

The girls’ flush runs are like their captain’s runs… no messing around. Not a sch!tt nor a giggle in sight. Except for before and after, and then it’s hella fun 🤩

How is Maeve? Bit worried about her elbow, I think, from late in the match.

She trained as normal. No strapping anywhere. As is often the case, she was one of the last off the field.

Three absentees today (who aren’t on the injury list): Ryleigh, Gabby and Radar.

Hope that's the case for Lampy. Jacinta, bit of a forgotten player! Hopefully gets a good go at it in 2026.

In case anyone (besides @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew and me) has ever wondered why Edo always tucks her guernsey into her shorts… I have the answer to the burning question!

She says it’s so no one can grab and pull at her jumper in play. She then said she’d demonstrate what she means. She grabbed at Banno’s waist/hip and pulled at her jumper, easily stopping her and effectively controlling her movement (along with scaring the carp outta her coz she didn’t know she was part of the demo). She got Banno to do the same to her and whaddya know? It’s true! Banno had nothing to grab at.

So now I’ve gone from wondering why the fashion fail to thinking they should all tuck their jumpers into their shorts 😁

Yes! I've always noticed she does that and wondered why, and the only reason I could think of was that it would make it harder to grab hold of her jumper. But I thought if that was the case why weren't more players doing the same?

So one mystery resolved, but another one raised...... 🤣

My mission should I choose to accept it (and we all know I will) is to find out why other players aren’t doing the same. 😅

I’ve also noticed Edo’s jumper is like a second skin. I’m guessing that’s a conscious choice for the same reason.
