I put that down to the sport rather than the womens physiology. Is there a physical reason (other than the obvious) as to why women are 4 to 8 times more likely to do an ACL?

I don't blame them. Last week with low scoring games the haters were out in force. This week with high scoring games, they are nowhere to be seen.

It's not the lack of game time that stops them scoring. It's because they're shit.

So what you're saying is there's an Gender Dream Team Gap?
Women get more points for doing the same job a man does.
