2021 SSN ROUND 8

The second match that the Lightning have stolen, they’re just more composed under pressure even if they’re outplayed for the rest of the match. 6 wins, 2 losses, +5 goal difference.

That might really push Magpies out of Finals contention. They pretty much need to win 5 of their last 6 matches now.

Anybody’s match, Lightning chased for most of the game and I thought they were hoping to catch up with a supershot. They did, but victory was just a fumble away for either team.

28 penalties to Ward didn’t help Magpies but not sure why Liz was saying she should be subbed for Newton during extra time when they’d already said that subs weren’t allowed in extra time.

Would have pulled Scherian. Her turnovers were high and then there was a play in the second quarter when a Magpie player was offside into the goal circle, Scherian took the ball outside and threw it away. When it’s an offside call into the goal circle, doesn’t a goaler take the ball and can only pass.

Thought WA – Hunt, C – Cassidy and WD – McAuliffe (or vice versa C and WD) would have settled the Lightning and been more effective.

I would love to see a Ward/Newton defensive circle for the Magpies. I think that circle will win more ball. Doubt we will see it though.

Hi everyone
Wasn’t sure which board to post this on – forgive me if there’s a better one :)

I just saw the announcement of the Western Sting team
Rose Aryang, Donnell Wallam, Ingrid Colyer and Olivia Lewis some big names.
When does this comp run again (now it’s not alongside) and why is Olivia Lewis named if she’s in the Fever 10? Can you have contracted players then? Surely Ingrid won’t be rehab-ed anytime soon? Is time getting away from me?
Thanks guys
