Lydia Williams walked into the #Matildas wanting to make women’s football better. she leaves it as one of the most important players to ever grace the sport. some words from me on last night’s send-off game, and on the remarkable legacy Lyds has created.

hey gang. sadly twitter is not good for my brain anymore, so I’m moving over to Bluesky. let’s all go and make it what twitter used to be, eh? https://t.co/6WZdnKfk2j

you love to see returning veterans like Gielnik, Logarzo & Chids here, but I'm even more buzzed for newbies like Gomez, Davidson, Aquino, Lowry & Prior. sometimes this first taste of international football is all a player needs to realise where they want to go with their careers.

the Dub has never been SO BACK 👊

North Korea have now won the WWC U-17 and U-20 in a matter of weeks, seriously restating their youth powerhouse status. How? @battledinosaur wrote this brilliant deep dive a while back. Get reading. https://t.co/hyfKLrE6yo

HAPPY DUB DAY, FAM 🎉

I’ll be on this panel of fab humans tonight at the Colombian Hotel in Sydney for @SydneyFC’s Pride Event to talk about LGBTQIA+ representation and inclusion in football! come along and say hello 🌈 ✨

absolutely silly to be nominated for this alongside my idols @LadiesWhoLeague, @marnievinall and @AnnOdong. making the shortlist is winning enough for me, all three of these incredible women deserve this recognition. go vote for them!!!

YOWZA 🚀

Chloe Lincoln and Daniela Galic getting a glimpse of senior Tillies life is arguably overdue. both have grown so much in the past 1-2 years, and Sermanni is the best at drip-feeding talented kids into senior football. let’s hope this is the first of many callups for both!

in saying that, the Dub officially started in 2008, making this its 17th anniversary, not 20th. would love to see similar women-led content come 2028 rather than a few scenes spliced into a video largely about the men’s league.

it’s difficult to capture exactly what makes our leagues simultaneously so silly and so special but this gets as close as anything I’ve seen at touching why we all love it. kudos to the content team and especially Ben Coonan, who understands us like few filmmakers do.
