The_Kincardine Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 A general thread for women's football outwith Scotland. Mostly the WSL but we're a broad kirk. Arsenal were queens of the may on Wed with not only a great result but a top-tier performance vs Bayern Munich: Chelsea huffed and puffed but, frankly, were 2nd best and deserved to go out vs Lyon on Thursday. Last kick penalty and two saves from Berger sees them through: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 I enjoy watching Tasmanian Women’s Super League side Taroona’s home games on NPL TV. Not that they are very good as they are far from that. It’s the River Derwent in the background and occasional ship movements as they sit in the road’s there waiting on the pilot to take them to Riseon. This is yesterday’s home game v South Hobart, Taroona is a Hobart suburb further south than South Hobart. We are actually spoiled for women’s football as all Women’s A-League games are streamed live on Paramount+ and all state top league and a lot of lower league games are streamed live on NPL TV or YouTube. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 Big result for Arsenal on Sunday. Some week for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Sanchez Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 That winning goal for Arsenal would have been a stick on to be disallowed by VAR. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 (edited) Watching Taroona again and they’ve at least scored but down 1-6 at HT against Devonport Strikers. This is their 4th game of the season and all have been at home. Results have been 0-5, 0-3, 0-9. ETA: They did a bit better in the second half going 1-7 with the 7th goal in added time.

Forget the results. What about the views? BTW wasn't Clarence a cross-eyed lion rather than a zebra? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some Tasmanian football history. Clarence United and Hobart Zebras amalgamated in 2019 to become Clarence Zebras. Hobart Zebras started out as Hobart Juventus and played in black and white stripes. Think there were occasional zebra sightings in Daktari though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted April 19, 2023 Author Share Posted April 19, 2023 Leah Williamson hobbling off with - probably - a hammy is a shame for her and, maybe, for England in the WC. Great win for Man U. Probably between them and Chelsea for the WSL title now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many ACL injuries in women's football just now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame for Williamson, too. She's improved even since the Euros and playing well for Arsenal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Taroona travelled up north to face Launceston United, losing 0-8. Aussies pronounce Launceston as lawn-cess-ton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tasmanian Women’s Super League is level 2 but the standard is lower than level 2 for most mainland states. Taroona travelled back to Launceston United on Saturday in the Statewide Cup Quarter Final only losing 0-2. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted May 8, 2023 Author Share Posted May 8, 2023 Not often I get things right re punditry but I did say Liverpool could take points off Man City and they did - with some style. Now a two-horse race with advantage Chelsea. I did wonder if they had the legs but 7-0 vs Everton says otherwise. Credit to Villa, though, for their demolition of Reading. Oor own Kirsty Hanson being in fine form and Rachel Daly having the season of her life. This was some game for her: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Taroona won their last game of the season 1-0 at home to Clarence Zebras. They finished bottom of the 6 teams after 20 games but did end up winning 3 and drawing 2, finishing 4 points behind the 2nd bottom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
