      The tbirds need to pick up Maseko!! She’s going to be a superstar in the future.

        If I were T’Birds, I’d go for the following lineup.

        Nelson
        Austin
        Maseko
        Horjus
        Miller
        Williams
        Petty
        Wilson
        Garrett
        Sterling

        At least two strong options in all positions with slightly different styles of play. Still a very youthful team that would grow. They would challenge for finals again with that line-up in my opinion.

        Four imports is a lot but I think they’re all genuinely value adding and better than the Australian talent available. They’re also all quite exciting to watch.

          Surely TBirds have their 10 sorted and we just don’t know it. Lauren Moore is moving to Melbourne and Lewis has headed back there from Perth. Looks like Parmenter’s fiancée is in the process of moving them (given Amy is obviously busy!). Makes me think that hopefully contracts aren’t far away but in case of TBirds you’d want to know what you’re doing or they’ll be quite a way behind other teams!!

                If I were TBIRDS
                GS/GA Romelda Aiken-George
                GS/GA Georgie Horjus
                C/WA Maisie Nankivell
                WA/C Hannah Petty
                WD/GD Latanya Wilson
                GD/GK Shamera Sterling
                S Lucy Austin (GS/GA)
                S Matilda Garrett (WD/GD)

                I think Lucy needs another SSN to transition to the starting 7

                    You forgot Tayla Williams.
                    I think they’ll keep Georgie at WA, because she’s a their liZ Watson.

                    I noticed that Annie miller is following a lot of Tbirds training partners so maybe she’ll sit behind Georgie.
                    The big question is the GA. Hoping for Maseko someone who isn’t afraid to shoot.

                        Now wouldn’t it be perfect if Browne went back to Lightning…

                        Edit: I forgot Watson is moving over there.

                              After watching them this weekend TBirds really should just back in Austin and Horjus. They are the future but also the now. Yes they will make mistakes but the learning and growth from that will be immense. Austin really could push into Diamonds in 12-24 months time, beautiful shot, all the physical attributes and appears to be very coachable. Then of course pick up Annie Miller.

                                I’m a fan of them getting Romelda for a year so Austin doesn’t have to carry the load. She’s great and I’ve always been a fan of hers since she was at Matrics, but another year as an understudy would do her well. Not sure what they’re going to do about a GA though!

                                Very sad to see Nelson playing VNL…

                                  If they were to go forward with a Austin/Horjus circle, would they need a more experienced WA option? Eg Scherian or Browne?
                                  I’m not familiar with all their ages, but that attacking end from C-GS would seem young or inexperienced?
