norwood stop blaming everybody else,the lightning players dont want to play for you.there are better places to play and better coaches else where.stop throwing your money around like theres no tomorrow
(Mod: Title fixed. Try something more descriptive next time.)
Im sure this is the first time ANY club has attempted to make itself better buy buying players. This thread is a joke, and Im disappointed in myself for reading and replying to it!
HUH?

You are a idiot & this is a pathetic thread, get a clue!
Kobe8, Good guess. Huh is the male version of brad. He must have learnt how to spell.
some use money others use their positions in higher teams which ones worse??????
you can all say what you like,BUT why is norwood complaining they cant get a lightning player after they offered a huge amount to get one.I shouldnt have posted this,mistake on my part.these things are best kept in house.
I think you are getting confused:
Players who turn down large amounts of money do so because they do not want to play in a sub standard program and that their development will be better at another club.
As for "using their positions in higher teams" I think you are confusing this with being a high quality coach that players WANT to play for and under, regardless of monetary incentives.
I AM confused... are Norwood complaining that they cant get a lightning player?
Cause they did have 2 WNBL players last season didn't they?
What about Woodville, Centrals, Eastern, South these teams didn't have a WNBL player at all let alone a lightning player
Correct me if I am wrong but this is the breakdown I believe...
Centrals 0 WNBL Players
Eastern 0 WNBL Players
Forestville 3 WNBL Players (Ranford, Screen, Lindsay)
North 2 WNBL Players (Hill, Lorinzini)
Norwood 2 WNBL Players (Hurst, Abrams)
South 0 WNBL Players
Southern 2 WNBL Players (Cooper Beatty)
Sturt 3 WNBL Players (Bowley, Bowley Marino)
West 2 WNBL Players (Woosnam, Smith)
Woodville 0 WNBL Players
Seems like the top 5 Teams do, the bottom 5 dont.
Says to me these type of players are the difference, for getting to finals or not?

Yes well isnt it about time BASA look at some ruling that players will be drafted to all teams by some fair means
business arising
Yes well isnt it about time Clubs looked at doing a better job of producing their own players rather than expecting other clubs or the lightning to supply them with players!
HUH, U TOSSER WHY IS IT THE FLAMES CANT GET A LIGHTNING PLAYER .THEY ARE DESPERATE FOR ONE.THE LATEST PLAYER THEY HAVE CHASED TURNED THEM DOWN AS WELL

I've heard a rumour that the Norwood womens coach has resigned. Any truth in that?
