Jeff Hopkins

They don't know how to actually make them all fit.

So her inclusion, married with a couple of the players who have left, perhaps Jeff Hopkins will now be able to actually find a combination that works.

So some of those players that have left, Rachel Lowe, Sfis, Carlos, Kennedy White, Rihanna Polosina, obviously they will have impacts on both the midfield, but White and Polosina specifically, goal scorers.

They had 15 goals in the regular season.

I think there's been...

And I'll have to double check my notes later, so forgive me if I'm wrong.

There's been four seasons of the dub all time that have not had Jeff Hopkins at the helm of at least a club.

He's so...

There's still daily battles and tasks that are frustrating from a staff, but also the players feel that way as well.

And ultimately, you know, we cop it as kind of the conduit, not so much me, but more so Jeff Hopkins as the head coach has got to delicately balance demands from the board which are his bosses and the players which um you know report into him so i still feel there's a lot of work to do in that in the uh in the female development space the female um alignment communication uh media uh i feel like if i'm honest you know we've probably dropped off a little bit in the last 12 months, but there's some reasons for that.

I've gone through a redundancy cycle, expertise and IP have left the building and it takes a while to upscale and re-familiarise ourselves with roles.

But in the six seasons that I've been here, it's massively improved from when we first started.
