To make any type of comparison of Women’s footy to mens is not very fair. It’s still a very new game to many of them and of course the skills are not there. Boys have spent a good part of their lives kicking and catching a footy, I think the next generation of girls, who grow up doing will be a better crop. I am a little torn on the issue, daughter plays with her local club and she loves it. She barely gets a kick, but so what, she’s having fun and staying fit. I’ve umpired a number of girls games too and again at local level the skills vary, from ok, to awful. Girls games can either be really easy, or bloody difficult to umpire in.
