T. PHILLIPS: A very good and reliable full-back with a strong hit; tackles very successfully and is very sure.

D. CALLAHAN: Has made a good full-back although inclined to be slow; owing to practice as goal-keeper has a tendency to kick the ball.

A. BRETT: Has shown great improvement as right inner, passes well and shoots well for goal; has a good goal average.

J. INGLETON: Plays well on the left wing; centres well, but needs to be careful to keep out on her wing.

M. STAGBOUER: As left inner, tackles well in the circle, but is inclined to hit the ball too far in front; an energetic forward with a good goal average.

M. PAYNE: A very good centre forward, who is very quick; passes well, hut sometimes hesitates when in the circle; has a good goal average.

B. MINCHIN: A full-back with a strong hit; tackes well; should not stop the ball before hitting; has not played much this season owing to an injured knee.
