lightning on the ropes ? no finals 2009/10

well after last nights loss to sydney we are looking at 7th or 8th spot and no finals since i don't know when.

we have a championship winning starting 5

marino
camino
foley
burston
francis

with a challenge in front of us - so the girls being never - say - die will no doubt give it a crack but the reality is -

bulleen 2-0 split on us
canberra 1-0 has split with 27pts + for canberra
bendigo 1-1 split with 9 pts + for bendigo
sydney 1-1 split with 2+ pts for sydney

yet to play townsville - who defeated bulleen
and logan - who cleaned us up twice last year.

we need splits against the top sides to even hope of making the fianls.

our destiny is quickly falling from our control and we dont want it to be reliant on upset winns helping us to the finals by default.

If vicky can win or at least get into finals with a team like that then I'd be the first one to call for her sacking. She plays favourites, her rotation s are terrible and seriously who recruits 3 players that u know won't be back till half through the season at full strength. And the way she treats players that aren't her favourites is an absolute disgrace.

in all fairness - burston was a late absoloute bonus recruitment.

and who would not accept camino - even in her injury circumstances

The Logan double home and away, will determine the season. Lose 1 of those 2 an we can kiss this season bye bye.

If the players don't get on you cant blame the coach.

They are grown ups they can sort it out themselves.

If you don't realise it's the coach, then you are all blind! Made some terrible decisions last season as well and definitely plays favourites...

The inclusion of Jackson, will have a major impact on the Lightning.
Boti has it right for once!!

I would say its all over if Canberra can win with jackson, which is no lock, imo
