Should the other women footballers be allowed to weigh in on the discussion? I mean is there a chance it'll make them feel uncomfortable or something and impact female involvement at all?

If she has had the operation taken all the hormones and has been tested to be within female limits for testosterone, play on in my book.


"Within female limits for testosterone", I assume that's naturally occurring levels?

Honestly, call me what ever you like, but this actually makes me feel uncomfortable. I don't like the idea of it, and it makes me also wonder what doors of possibility it opens in other sports and facets of life.

BRISBANE is set to land Port Adelaide ruckman Matthew Lobbe for a third or fourth-round pick, reports The Advertiser.

Lobbe is currently contracted to the Power until the end of 2019, but has met with both the Lions and Gold Coast Suns in recent weeks as he eyes a move to Queensland.

The Advertiser reports that the trade will be finalised as soon as Brisbane and Lobbe’s management work through a new contract for the ruckman.

After a breakout 2014 season, Lobbe has played just 25 games in the past three years due to a combination of injury, patchy form and the form of All-Australian ruckman Paddy Ryder.

"Within female limits for testosterone", I assume that's naturally occurring levels?

There's an Olympic standard I believe and yeah I think it's something like that


But these levels wouldn't be naturally occurring would they so it's not really "like for like", is it?

MELBOURNE’s Jack Watts has chosen Port Adelaide and is set to be traded to the Power.

It is expected that Watts will be traded for a second-round draft choice, with the Power holding Picks 31 and 34. Melbourne had demanded a pick in the 20s for Watts.

Geelong was the other club most interested in Watts but the Cats had been unwilling to give up a sufficiently early draft pick. The Cats hold Picks 19 and 22.

Port have offered Watts a three-year contract which would see him retaining the salary of his current two year deal over the first two years.

Watts also received interest from Sydney but the Swans have a tight salary cap and have said they will retain Kurt Tippett, who has three years to run on his contract.

I think Port were the only ones left wanting him though for the asking price?
