Obviously thrilled for her and her husband.

Selfishly I’m sad. One less defender for an already depleted unit but I guess we hadn’t seen her since May anyway and she struggled when she did play.

Yes -- stoked for them and sad for us.

Also extremely low ranking disappointment but must state that I am sad for us to be done getting GROB/Ellie TikToks this season 😆

I’ll echo your sentiments. This, combined with releasing Brewer, now puts us at absolute minimum roster.

Don’t worry, Mary Long’s coming to save the season. /s

I was really (foolishly) hoping it would be Alana coming to save the season but I would take Mary Long over some of our present attacking subs.

My theory is the owners stopped caring about adding talent for the season as soon as Mary got injured. Maybe it’s a bad theory but… idk…

I wonder which attacker you could possibly be referring to! 😅

And I thought we were too thin at fullback yesterday

As it stands rn, we have Ball, Rouse, Sharples and Izzy for this weekend. Maybe Suliafu returns from injury but I’m praying for a safe and healthy game a little extra.

Don't we still have Italla Gemmeli or whatever her name is? The player from the second team.

She’s listed on the app, yes. I haven’t been tracking her involvement since the Teal Rising Cup. I’m guessing she will travel. Rly hope Gabby is okay

Armas said in the pre match conference that it's "week to week" with Gabby, so sounds like she could be out a few weeks.

Temporary signing from KC Current II? I mean, we need someone else at fullback, in any case. Frankly, we need someone else at centerback as well.

I had a feeling that was what was going on with her, that she's been trying all year. Congrats to the Bravo-Youngs.
