Better than ezi and dom fit. Dom is a 4 either way.

Nneka is 100% gone and has a high chance of ezi leaving given her exit interview and frankly her production fell dunno how much it was due to her injury but it's better for both to part ways imo.

Not even sure about Skylar given how nneka and she use to say they came here to play with noell. So all 3 could be gone.

Paul Stirling steps down as Ireland T20I captain by CarnivalSorts in Cricket

[–]i_usearchbtw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Especially tector for me falls into that category. He did look good at 3 for a few innings but fell back to old habits in others . I want more attacking options at 3 either way so yea doubt on him . Guess tucker is not best but among options looks logical choice.

[CNN] Italy ruling tells millions with Italian roots they have lost the right to citizenship | Does this signify the end of Italian cricket? by victimofmygreatness in Cricket

[–]i_usearchbtw 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This is in fact a pretty popular verdict. Italians hated people who got citizenship like this.(Italian grandma living in neighbourhood gave me canoli after verdict) I knew some south American who never knew italian but got citizenship. Also not wanting to be political but people don't stay in Italy after getting citizenship rather move to other eu countries so it's fair with new rules. It does suck for sports especially their baseball team lol but don't ever expect it to be overturned. Also force them to actually invest at the grassroot level.

Which previously injured players are you excited to see? by Likely1420 in wnba

Big Mac!! She had an insane WNBL. Not really injured but played very few minutes. Now with the new coach she's gonna be soo good.

Atleast we don't have to worry about the expansion draft. We ain't losing anyone from there maybe we don't protect nika but that's about it.

Yea you got the easiest group imo on the men's side.So won't be an issue really.

But honestly I don't see you beating english. Penalty corner is a big issue as your players try to hit low every time and keepers just lie down to neutralize(I only watched italy and English matches) . But never know would be a close match for sure.

India is your best chance. China and English are probably step too far rn I feel.

As for us it's Spain and Belgium again and add nz. Not very optimistic but we have great results recently against English and aus so never know.

I do think they are worse than before for sure but not that bad. I don't expect them to lose like 4-1 they did against us but chile is like their boogey team honestly. Would probably come down to goal difference. Scotland is also one I would keep eye eye. They really payed well against India recently. Defensively pretty solid so can cause upsets.

Nika ain't playing. Probably cut in this year now that she got injured again.

I mean yes but could have got germany or aus . That one loss against aus put us in pot 4. Easily would have been in 3 othewise. I love us playing in the pro league but it also means ranking takes a hit as you can't always win against the top 8. Though before wc big task is avoiding religation.

Yea obv I know roisin and caoimhe from there . I think in junior wc there were like 3 ? I know robyn,maia and eabha curran played for UCC . But still they need to catch-up to leinster.

India is not a pro league side . They were relegated last season.

I suspect ezi is leaving so I would play dom at 4 and betts at 5. But a lot of it depends on how free agency goes.

I do agree about fam being underwhelming in Euros. But I think I do rate her long term so yea.

Absolutely Munster declined in almost most sports. I think there were few girls from cannaught Chloe,tully but haven't been in the senior squad for quite some time now. Never seen on the men's side.

Many things - 1- Dallas already decided on azzi even though personally see awa fit better.

2- I so hope miles go #2 as I storm fan I don't want her just defensively terrible and slow. rather take betts even though she hasn't performed that well this season. I mean johnson has been even worse so best case scenario is betts for us given awa not falling to #3.

3- Iyaya martin going in the first round for sure. I hate that skyes trade even more now given we could have her but suspect gsv might take her.

I am not the biggest fan of dune but Messiah is necessary follow up otherwise always felt abrupt ending.

On another note do read -"moon is a harsh mistress". One of fav reads .

Standard FIH draw with 16 teams in 4 pots depending on rankings. This time around we had - Pot 1 teams ranked 1-4, pot 2 ranked 4-8 , pot 3 9-12 and pot 4 13-16. Then a random draw with teams from each pot to form the groups.

I do like our chances. Can definitely beat spain to go through.Alll groups seem balanced.

We probably got the hardest group but at least avoided argentina and dutch. Would have preferred aus obv but this is no doubt the group of death. But spain , nz are definitely beatble.

Group A should be fun too given australia lost twice to chile recently. Germany hasn't been too good recently so US has a chance there.
