Queens of the Week

Cheryl – 1) New Western Sydney Wanderers head coach Kat Smith made some nice social media posts from the U20 World Cup. 2) Aleksandra Sinclair is finally an A-League Women player after a stellar NPL Victoria career.

Dale – Macarthur Rams defeated Sydney University 1-0 on Sunday, impressively shutting out the 2022 Premiers.

Eric – My queen of the week is The Queen of Right Backs, Polly Doran. She’s settled in brilliantly at her new side Crystal Palace, starting in both of their first two games and helping them keep two clean sheets.

Lachy – Molly Arens from Texas A&M-Corpus Christi has notched five assists and a goal in four games this season, after a highly interrupted first two years of her college career. She finished with two assists after just 42 minutes of playing time this week in an 8-1 win over Prairie View A&M.
