Fark me.....some people just want to take offence nowadays......but then apparently I'm an old entitled white man in the eyes of today's woke society.
FWIW. Ladies is a far more polite term....like gentlemen v men, ladies is how I would refer to a group of females if I were to approach them. "
How can I help you ladies"? As opposed to "what do you women want"!

Well done ladies....well played and a great result. The female game is an area where rugby league has a chance to grow, as I believe the "nuances" of union are not as appealing to the fairer sex.

Have the highlights up already. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxrIfrKY4PA I think a handful of them played a few games for Brixton Bulls when they had a women's team a couple of years back. Also, photos from their training sessions showed Skolars and Queensland shirts on display. So a little bit of RL experience but not too much. Either way, it's a great first result.

Re: London Broncos Women : Sun Jun 20, 2021 1:19 pm  

Royal navy wrenegades for a long time were referred to as tye RN ladies.
The army RL in RL press have regularly been referred to as the Army ladies.
London broncos are called the ladies team.
They play in a comperion referred to as womens RL.
If tye teams or players involved are happy to be referred to as ladies, folk should stop whinging. Dont agree with his wording but agree with the sentiment from WQ
Or maybe i should refer to WQ in a non binary way, damn the pitfallls of political correctnes
