  1. There was a video on instagram the other day of Evie Sexton scoring 5 tries for Hull FC, looks a great player for the future.
  2. Yep watched Lauren Exley play for Sheffield v Fev and I was impressed, also I thought the other Valkyrie youngster Izzy Brennan was very good too. I see Abbie Millward has joined York too, excellent backup hooker option if Peach gets injured.
  3. I watched most of the games, my main interest was to see how Megan Pakulis got on. I was pleased with her performances although she did look fatigued by day 3 and 4 pro because she played for different teams. I hope she gets an NRLW contract but if not I believe she would go to WSL where she would be one of the top players.
  4. Definitely a good result and the fact is that every season over the last 3 years Cardiff have lost some outstanding talent to go back to Rugby Union. It’s a real shame they haven’t been able to hang on to Ffion Lewis, Bryony King, Molly Reardon and Lowri Norkett. if they get into the WSL then hopefully they can hold keep these top players.
  5. Keira Gittens is one from Rhinos to Valkyrie and another is a prop/second rower can’t remember her name.
  6. A couple of young players I’m looking forward to seeing this season is Ana De Silva at Huddersfield & T’Leesha Frederick Maynard (Valkyrie) A year younger than them still but one to keep an eye on is Izzy Rowe at Wigan. She is coming back from a knee reconstruction but I believe she was the gun player in her age group.
  7. Georgia Wilson is playing for Norths Devils, she said the coach Meg Ward convinced her to join them.
  8. Wigan have announced their squad so looking forward to Valkyrie announcing the squad. I heard Carrie Roberts may be going around again but nothing confirmed at this stage.
  9. I read somewhere, on Twitter I think that either Rugby League World or League Express will have a top 50 British Rugby League players list. Hopefully it gets people discussing the womens game. Also keen to see if any Super League South players get a mention.
  10. What’s the thoughts on Sam Hulme signing for the Giants ? I think she is a handy player will be a key for them in the number 7 shirt. Decent goal kicker too.
  11. I don’t know but that’s a decent team on paper, would love to see it happen.
  12. Awesome signing for Saints and a big loss for Wigan, wouldn’t be surprised to see Zoe Harris go to Wigan, not to play fullback.
  13. Whilst I was browsing YouTube, I came across a couple of England girls u18 Union internationals. I never watch Union but I thought I’d have a look and there were a couple of League players in the England squad, Lucie Sams & Bridget Campbell (Huddersfield). it made me quite envious so I hope in the near future we can have a Rugby League England under 18 team for the girls. That will give more incentive and great recognition, we can’t afford to get further left behind. How good would a tour to th southern hemisphere be ? A potential squad would be quite strong, eg; 1. Beri Salihi 2. Amelia Brown 3. Molly Jones 4. Eva Hunter 5. Elise Gater 6. Grace Banks 7. Caitlin Casey 8. Lucie Sams 9. Bella Sykes 10. Megan Williams 11. Jess Sharp 12. Lois Naidole 13. Mayzi Carter Res: Evie Cousins, Lucy Johnson, Cerys Jones & Abbie Millward
  14. Agree 100% about Saints they need to be careful that they don’t fall away but as it stands their squad is still pretty strong especially in the forwards. I rate Lucie Sams as the best forward prospect coming through in the WSL. Zoe Harris Leah Burke Erin Stott Lucy McColm Phoebe Hook Faye Gaskin Amy Taylor Channy Crowl Tara Jones Vicky Whitfield Paige Travis Emily Rudge Jodie Cunningham. reserves: Georgia Sutherland, Naomi Williams, Lucie Sams & Darcy Stott.
  15. I think Wigan are about 3 top players short of becoming a top 3 team. Id love to see them sign a top prop or 2 and a good quality halfback to compliment Grace Banks.
  16. The signings of Shona Hoyle & Grace Field give the some real firepower up front and with Shannon Lacey possibly back from injury, they are looking stronger for next season. Also good to see the Giants sign Amelia Brown & Bethan Oates to pro contracts.
  17. I agree this was a great opportunity to pick some young guns like Amelia Brown and possibly even Caitlin Casey. Poor old Wales have a few of their better players missing, prop Emily Hughes is a big loss for them.
  18. Huddersfield have actually signed a prop who I rated as the best young prop in WSL 2 years ago, Ellie Oldroyd. She took time away from the game in 2022 so it’s great to see her back. I honestly think she can become an England international if she gets back to full fitness.
  19. Apparently the Dolphins scout is over in the uk and Kristian Woolf who is well aware of Welsby will be taking over as head coach I think in 2025.
  20. That’s good to hear, I’ve seen both games and he hasn’t been on the team sheet yet so hopefully he is for the last game this week.
  21. Liv and Grace both to Leeds I’ve been told. I rate Liv highly but I rate Ruby Enright even more. The next big thing imo.
  22. I hope they aren’t lost to the game, especially Whitehead & Field.
