The French coaching team seem hellbent on taking les Blues backwards. Gaelle Hermet and Morgane Bourgeois (examples of much needed experience and guidance, and proven youth) left at home. The only the top team not consistently choosing its best players to start each match. One wonders what such a policy does for player morale, especially youngsters thrown in at the deep end.

Bruce Perkins. 12 Oct 2024

Thanks. All a bit confusing with names 14 and 15 letters long.

If you compare them with the match sheet from their match against Kenya, some of the Malagasy seem to be nicknames. For example, Nandrianina gotta be Marie Bodonandrianina, and Jinah Kely is Tiana Jinah Razanamahefa

Rob Gorthy. 06 Sep 2024

Yes, it is a mystery why no Annaëlle Deshaye or Gaëlle Hermet, and you might add, Morgane Bourgeois, instrumental in helping Bordeaux to two elite championships.

Alas for the reintroduction of Drouin! I'm curious Okemba is listed among the Forwards. I'm not sure if she has played for Stade Francais, but back in the day she was in the Backs for Saracens. Moving from 7s to the pack vs the likes of England, Canada and NZ feels a tough assignment. In looking up Okemba I discover she's also a knight (of the Order of Merit, along with others of the Tokyo 7s team) and that she recently released a music album (can be found on youtube).

Any idea how we can get tickets for this tournament, I have tried everywhere?

'LJ'. 20 Jun 2024

I am still at a lost for words to understand, why this game that is always in #TOP3, in terms of bums on seats, and top viewing figures, in every Commonwealth Games since #2010Dehli; how is this even a petition conversation? If Netball derives from Basketball, and Basketball is there, with the growing figures in Netball for females and males; this IS; at least a #TopTable conversation. The first investor to really #SeeUsNow, and allow us on this, so called level playing field, with same backing as other sports, who don't have, or never have come to the table with the numbers we can boast in this #BeautifulGame; is backing a sure thing!! They just need to be smart and get in first #NetballOnTheRise

About Us

We are a small group of sports fans who would like to see a little more parity in sports reporting. England women’s teams have had some wonderful successes in the last years and yet they don’t get the recognition they deserve. We would like to begin to put that right by making them the focus of our website. You can get in touch with us from this page or via twitter
