@cockwomble12 @johnnyddavidson One of the largest barriers to the success of the women’s game is disdain, I would say this is a solution that will kick clubs into gear. Player retention strategies including reasonable pay and enough resources to improve the standard every year. Tactics that force clubs to act.

@MrJamesMay You’ll have a great time here James. Happy to send coffee recommendations for Melbourne

@vline_ballarat Coaches?

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@vline_ballarat Given it is possible to walk and chew gum, can we get an update on coaches? Is there going to be anything from Footscray? Can we get a meaningful update?

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@JackoHastings Further, it’s sad that the debut of Sailor and Feldt in a traditionally strong outfit has been soured by playing against sadly a strong academy side (at best).

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@JackoHastings 100% agree with you here mate. Just watched the match back (saints fan through mates back in the UK). And this is the saddest match I’ve watched.
RFL and Salford are a disgrace for not getting the ownership/salary cap resolved by round 1.

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@HMCW_science @vline_ballarat Awesome! I assume everything is packed?

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@vline_ballarat Are you running replacement coaches or not?

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@VLine @vline_ballarat any chance of an update on today’s delays? Staff at Bacchus Marsh doing their best with zero comms available to them. Tragedy aside, we need communication. #justletusknow

@Leo_Puglisi6 Uni Blacks should be a reunified University FC (originally a VFL side).

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@Leo_Puglisi6 @BeefPies wrong Uni team included in Div 3. Should be the Blues

@MHatzoglou Everyone loves a round zero… Or opening round but not round one… Or whatever it is 😂

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@MHatzoglou Poorly run club from the beginning. Tried to buy in talent without properly offering the strong local rugby competition a real opportunity to push talent up the grades. The credit card has run out and they are in dire need of reform or else they are gone.

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@MichaelVaughan So start at 0730 for matches at the Gabba in Brisbane? Given the sun rises a few hours before… Play till 9pm in Melbourne? I think playing till sunset in UK is great, but that disadvantages nations that don’t have the same daylight hours…

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

Loved the insights from the #offsiders panel today. Would have been nice to touch on the world club challenge last night where @PenrithPanthers were bought back down to earth by an amazing @Saints1890 @abcsport

@benhawk35 @FBAwayDays Melbourne mate! Where those who spent time at shepherds bush came from 😂😂

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@DanielAndrewsMP best get onto @yarratrams to run services to the city on Sunday morning so we can all descend on @FedSquare to watch @Socceroos at 6am!

[Jean-Luke Desmarais @jld1992]

@AmyRemeikis Sounded as though there were more crickets than humans in the room 😂😂
