I thought she was very good for the Dragons on Sunday. Even my team focused on here defensively as they worried about her attacking prowess.
She is always very good as she is our star but..
They are not smart in how she us used in attack
And like a lot if our moves we hold onto the ball just a bit too long and ate predictable
I am pedantic but I want see them win more often

You are spot on, I think part of the problem with Berry holding onto it too long is to do with her passing. She only gets it right 50% of the time and I think she is conscious of this now as well. We need to remember this is only her second year of playing fullback and she hasn't quite developed the necessary ball skills that she needs. If she can work on this and add that dimension to her game, she will be unstoppable.

You are right though that they don't use her correctly in attack. More often than not it doesn't really seem like they actually have a gameplan. It is just hit it up, get it to Berry, if she can't do anything kick. When we do score it's either off a kick, created by Berry or a bit of individual brilliance mixed in with some bad defence.

Is the coaching structure the same as the mens where there is an attack & defence AC under the HC, or is Sowie doing it all? Does anyone know.

I can assure u that Sowie does have help but not in the same way as the men with the entourage
He has one main assistant including through the off season

Yeah I thought that was the case. I don't know if he is going to be the coach that can win a premiership in that space but for his & the dragons sake I hope he can. It would be nice to see both the men & womans teams being regular contenders.

With all the new clubs that are coming into the NRLW it will get worse for us before it will get better. In the early years we had a window of opportunity to win a couple of premierships but we blew it in usual Dragons fashion.
