Solely critcising Football Ferns coaches, who get to work with technically deficient players for what 2-3 weeks a year max if they are lucky - double yawn.

It's not for Sermanni and co to improve the technical ability of their players, that needs to begin years earlier. It's too late by the time they come into the Ferns environment. 
I have to disagree to a certain extent. We have a couple of very talented ball players who unfortunately havent been given the right style of football to show what they can do. Des Buckingham with the mens u23s showed what some of our players are capable of if given the right platform.  Annalie Longo, Betsy Hassett, Ali Riley, Katie Bowen, Ria Percival, Olivia Chance, Daisy Cleverley  to name a few are players all capable of much more than long ball tactics asks of them. 

And Emma Rolston 

Her and Green were there during those prime development years say ages 12-17?

See Green is now age 30, so she was at Weenix 13-15 years ago? Fair enough if so, I just didn't think Weenix Academy had been taking in girls that long.
