I was never expecting them to kick goals from 50, not even 35- 40m tbh.
But 25m, bloody oath. And to hit up a target over that distance more often than not....
Suggesting a 18yo girl is physically weaker than a 12yo boy (in general) is pure balderdash.
Suggesting executing a decent drop punt is more about strength than anything else is equally problematic - try ball drop, timing and technique.....
And sure, I don't want the girls to start shirt fronting or doing Dusty's 'don't argue' but I do expect them to be able to execute a reasonable handball to a team mate over 2-3 metres.....
Anyway, enjoy it folks. Each to their own....
