What’s it gonna take for the Matildas to start the kids? I’m willing to make a trade.

Devo that Nike aren’t going beyond XL in women’s cut for Matildas/Socceroos jerseys. I loved my 3XL Tillies jersey for the World Cup. She was perfect and I was keen on a new one. Now I need to figure out the men’s sizes because women’s XL is too tight a squeeze 😅

I’ll start caring more about the “financial sustainability” of women’s clubs (especially ones paying good money in the transfer market), once women’s teams stop being axed due to financial issues and/or demotion of a club’s men’s side.

I banked on there being sun today and wore shorts. I’m still waiting for the bus to get to work and I already have regrets. The sun is totally not out to play 😞 Oh Tassie, this summer has been a long cold burn.

Alexia’s goal. M8. The touch to control and strike rocketing into the bottom corner. You couldn’t ask for much better in the 90th minute. Barca’s get out of jail card in the form of the world class attacker.

In a statement, Canberra United CEO Samantha Farrow has said that the club is extremely disappointed in the decision not to re-schedule the match. Farrow also said that the club wanted to make it clear to members and supporters they did everything they could to get the remainder re-scheduled #ALW

Lucy Johnson scores in three consecutive Sydney FC games and she’s really forcing me to stop being lazy and write the article I’ve been meaning to since her first goal..

My favourite memory of Bonnie has to be the final whistle when Olympia finally won the WSL. I had my camera on her because I knew she would show the emotion summing up the game. Now she’s signed for Blackburn, how good! www.themercury.com.au/sport/bonnie...

Huge day for Tassie sport. 🏏 Beau Webster debuts in Australia test squad. Takes 2 catches and bowls 4 maiden overs. ⚽️ Nathaniel Atkinson scores his first goal of the A-League season for Melbourne City. 🏀 Taran Armstrong scores 28 points for Cairns Taipans in the biggest NBL upset of the year.

Ok. This is an issue that needs talking about, but Goad’s retirement is a different story. The ALW gave her extra time playing at a top level because it was semi-pro. She’s becoming a doctor and has indicated that’s her priority not full time footy. Good issue to talk about, awkward case study.

Johnson casually shrugging off two defenders and finding that finish is even better live. Just saying

I have been blessed. Tumeth made a crunching tackle right in front of me 🥰

TASH bloody PRIOR! Has seen the opening of goal scoring centre back in Polks’ retirement and snatched it faster than I grab biscuits. Her and Hunt have to be our starting centre back pairing.. surely.

A small (ok large) part of me was wondering if I could give playing rugby a crack and now I feel like hurting my shoulder whilst moving is my body’s way of saying “no, we really can’t”.

Rumour is, NRL legend Darren Lockyer is switching codes and has put his hand up to replace interim Matildas coach Tom Sermani in a permanent move.

Maybe because I’m getting a year older tomorrow - or maybe because true stars never fade - but there’s something wonderful about the classics. Oh Dub, never change.

Do we have a Brisbane Roar finally ready to return to the top of the Dub tree this season? Early indications suggest maybe. A lot relies on Meeks creating those big moments, and the defence remaining tight. But, I’m here for Brissy being a proper challenger.
