THERE is no turning back for any of the four Tasmanian State League (TSL) Women’s sides when the four finalists battle it out in two do-or-die semi-finals.

THEY are the only side to have done it in the Tasmanian State League (TSL) Women’s competition. Now, just to show it was not a fluke the first time, Glenorchy has doubled down on its ability to knock off top of the table Launceston with a second victory in the 2020 season. The third placed […]

TSL Women’s weekly preview: Round 8 – Can lightning strike twice for the Magpies?

THE last time Launceston took on Glenorchy in the Tasmanian State League (TSL) Women’s competition, it was the Magpies who caused a boil-over to shock the ladder leaders and premiership favourites.
