Men's African teams have full Squads from Europe and even 1 or 2 in NBA but they always suck , the Girls rule :clap:

 

Because it's easier to "climb the ladder" in women's sport (since it's less developed) than it is in men's, it's the same in all team sports.

 See for example Brazil handball national teams: both have almost all players in european leagues since a few years but the women have reached a higher level in less time.

Looks like Canada recovered. That or France is throwing the game so they could have a better chance at reaching the semi-finals.

TBH it mostly looked like Canada got it’s act together more so than France throwing. Canada had a laughable free throw and field goal percentage in the first two and a half quarters before getting it together.

    • From a quick look it appears that all the players in the Filipino men's and women's teams are all based in Switzerland and are Swiss-Filipino dual citizens.
    • That is absolutely certain. Any somewhat reasonable politician should be good enough to win against someone like Trump, even with the unfortunate timing (for the Democrats) of having to carry the brunt of the COVID pandemic consequences and so any Republic having a bit of a head start anyway.   But yeah, dreadful performance overall from Harris, who seemed to start quite positively, but then just lowered herself to Trump's level in terms of throwing shit at each other. That was a terribly dumb choice, nobody is going to beat Trump at the insult game, as we have seen.
    • Sorry for missing the draw, I was getting ready for bed when it began and just saw it now     Nice to see it so filled with local sports facts though  
    • It was never a priority to stop the war but to prolong it to offload the old weapons systems and keep Russia occupied in a conflict. But the West's strategy backfired as it pushed Russia to friendship with China. Many don't realize as Russia and China are actually adversaries even when they shared a common ideology during the Soviet era
