Right from the kick off Huddersfield dropped the ball and I knew they were going to lose but I didn’t think they would get an absolute flogging again.
-
So what did we make of that ?
22-22 draw.
From what I saw the ref really helped the home team but still I wasn’t impressed with the French, they had a few decent players but several weak links.
-
I noticed that too, she was the pick of Al the English girls.
Best I’ve seen her play for the Cowboys.

Shame that it was almost impossible to watch, the drone footage didn’t work imo.

Leeds clearly chose to keep their first team players fit for Saints on Friday
Their U19 are way ahead of everyone this year so worth a go yesterdayIf Wigan & Hudds played their U19 yesterday, Leeds would have won
I’m very impressed with Sienna Sharp and obviously Lill Seal, Sienna Sharp cannot be far off a first team debut, she is powerfully built so should handle the physicality.

Yes I would like to know as well.
it was live on YouTube last year.

Good to hear that Paige did well, flying a flag for the British game in the NRLW after the disappointment of Vegas. Looking forward to seeing how the other three get on in the opening round of 2025 on Friday and Saturday. As a York Knight/Valkyrie fan, it will be interesting to see how Megan Pakulis eventually goes at the Titans too - she has only been named as a reserve for this round I think.
Yes unfortunately Megan hurt her back and missed the last friendly but hopefully she gets a chance at some stage.

I think this was one of the best WSL games since it began, both teams went set for set for long periods and the intensity was pretty good.
-
Having a legend like Denis Betts coaching Wigan has been great for them.
Imagine Leeds appointing Kevin Sinfield and St Helens for example name Paul Sculthorpe as coach. It would definitely raise the profile.

The question at the moment is how many Wigan players will be in the next England team?
It’s incredible only one played in Vegas. There’ll be at least eight in the next game assuming they avoid injuries.
Certainties in my opinion:
Foubister
Davies
Rowe
Coleman
Wilson
Williams
Possibles:
Banks
Eva Hunter
Future internationals:
M. Jones
Derbyshire

Some great replies here and I think getting the right coach is just as important as getting the right players.
In terms of the coach, Stu Barrow should be nowhere near the squad and that is not personal as I don’t know him but I listened to his comments over the past 2 years and noted his team selections.
Last year I thought Jodie Cunningham was by far the best English player but Las Vegas seems to have affected her badly, she wouldn’t even make an England team if named today.As stated on here, Vicky Whitfield is the only Saints player performing to a high standard.

The bar has been set now and Leeds, St Helens and York will just have to up their ante's (or not). It's not as if Wigan are being paid - part or full time. With reasonable resources provided to them those four plus maybe Leigh, London, Cardiff and Huddersfield could form a genuinely competitive league in two or three years. One of the Hulls could come in too if they really tried especially drawing on a different catchment area. Warrington and Barrow will fall by the wayside as things stand which is unfortunate for the latter as it would be good to have a Cumbrian side in their too.
Yes both York Valkyrie & Leeds are signing young players from Hull so there must be some talent there.

1. Get a real coach like Denis Betts or someone of his ilk to coach the England team.
2. It’s time to move on from players who were previously automatic selections. Half of that Vegas squad wouldn’t get a look in now.

I saw the highlights and wow Amelia’s 4 tries were unreal and the 2 length of the field tries were spectacular.
What a player !
-
Also, can’t wait to see Lill Seal unleashed into the first team.
-
I do agree, if they can get Ebony Stead, Caitlin Beevers, Ruby Enright, Lacey Owen, Bella Sykes & Grace Field back into that team then everything changes.
However, I’m not sure Lois is the coach to take them forward.
-
Shame they don’t play Wigan next for a clash between first & second.
-
It’s absolutely brilliant for Wigan women and the women’s game as a whole because they are showing the way forward.
-
I watched the highlights on YouTube, I would love to have seen the full game though, Amelia Brown scored 3 tries and her 3rd was a beauty.
Mollie Iceton scored a ripper to with speed & footwork.
-
It’s a long year and a couple of injuries can change everything, a week ago I thought Leeds would be a distant 4th but that all changed after playing Saints with a weakened squad.
Im loving watching Wigan and hope they continue to improve.

It's scary how good the Foubister/Rowe combination is at such a young age. Exciting as well
I’ve followed the women’s game from day one and Foubister is the best all round halfback I have seen and at just 18, that is incredible.

Qld need to find some size and power next year or else NSW will dominate for many years to come.

I would expect to see Tegan Sant & Charlotte Shaw play SL this season.
