Olympics squad will be announced on June 4 according to this. I can't read the entire article though as it's behind a pay wall. Can someone who has access please share a quick summary of what is said. Thanks in advance!

Did you see Beth Mead said she was happy she was at the champions league final and not in Australia? Ouch
What was she suppose to say? I’d rather be in Australia than at the largest women’s fam of the year? That’s look bad on the CL final. She’s saying it because she’s there. And it was to Shebahn of all people 🙄
Be diplomatic and laugh it off lol? She’s a professional who has done media training. Shebahn is a shit stirrer who always is digging for gossip instead of reporting on a game.

Why not. Australia is just a friendly, in champions league she gets to watch the final match and after the match she gets to do some fun stuff in Spain.

She can double date with Lia and Mariona, Leah and who ever the Celeb Leah is dating.
Disrespectful to Aussie fans imo. Saying she’s glad she didn’t go to a place which was an exhibition match for Australian fans isn’t professional. The rest of your comment is off topic.

Saw this on Int thread. As usual they exaggerate everything. Lyon just did not have it today.

ok? joint 3rd worst on flashscore (6.4). 3rd worst on fotmob (5.9). joint worst on sofascore (6.2). it's nothing to brag about??? cherrypicking the highest score is lame. i would say based on her being the bottom 3 on every app some people were actually being pretty nice about her performance.
You're the one who researched all the apps. Strange behaviour.
oh wow i'll never get those 2 minutes of my life back /s
it was worth it to prove that as suspected fans were just cherrypicking and trying to dishonestly prove a point in the worst way (much like you just did with this nothing ass ad hominem reply).
as usual overly defensive fans just don't know when to put their hands up and stop digging a hole for themselves and their fav player.
WTF are you even talking about. No one is cherry-picking or digging holes. It is just a game of football. Get some perspective!
another dumbass nothing reply. i'll use this line when anyone says ellie played amazing. it's just football so shut up who cares blah blah blah

So funny, when Ellie doesnt play well we get "oh it was her team all of them played bad you cant blame just her". She had a shit game she didnt win Lyon didnt deserve to win, their manager did not read the game well, i pray for Chelsea because she is really not good and reading games. But most of all I pray for Ellie because Lyon will decline after this, they will not win next season and she resolutely said ij an interview she wants to stay at lyon because they make her better and she wants to win . Well I give it 12 months and Ellie will be in the wsl mark my words, Lyons downfall begins next season.

The whole lyon was below average except for about 15 mins in the 2nd half after barca first scored. Ellie made quite a few mistakes she was lucky barca did not punish her for. She wasn't as good as she is capable of being today but that goes for many of her teammates too.

Just saw on Facebook that Caitlin flew into Adelaide yesterday afternoon. No mention of Steph or Kyra but with both being from Melb/Vic, can understand them staying the weekend and being at home.

Wonder if more will trickle in today or a lot of them will arrive from tomorrow morning.
Think macca might have left today. 22 hours ish from london to Adelaide and if she wasn’t leaving today, she probably would have stayed a little longer in Greece.

She wasn't great but the rest of her OL teammates were also not great today either so...
You can't expect the defenders to absorb wave after wave of attack when the forwards don't score and the midfield are being over run. Barcelona were too good across the board.
Put the stan gun down. All of OL were shit from the get go, you don't need to twist yourself into a pretzel to make excuses for Ellie.

To be fair, out of the couples mentioned only macca and Kirsty could have gone on holiday up to this point. Caitlin and Katie had the Aussie arsenal trip, and Ellie and daan obviously have the small (joking) matter of the champions league final to play. So hard to base what others will do on the fact Mac went on holiday already.
Wouldn’t be shocked to see those mentioned couples holiday in Europe and Kirsty join Mac out in Aus.
Then I can’t wait to see the wags + families in France for the Olympics this summer!
Last summer with the WC was slightly different because some were playing + others had pre season, whereas it’ll be different this time around.

They’ll get about two weeks off. As another anon said, the ones based in Europe will definitely be flying back and then probably going on vacation with their partners from there. The ones who don’t need to be back in Europe will probably just stay unless they have plans to holiday somewhere else. A guarantee though is probably that everyone will be having a vacation of some kind whether it’s in Aus or elsewhere
Only one we know who is staying in aus a bit longer is macca. That talk she’s doing with tony is 10th June I think, so she must be staying for atleast a week after the china games if not for even longer.
She just did a week long holiday in a very fancy place with Kirsty in Greece, so instead of going away after the break, they chose to do one before. She'll probably work on a couple of things while still here, make some of that money from the expensive trip back, and spend some time with family before flying back.
Could be that Kirsty flies out to aus after the first lot of Scottish games for a couple of weeks for a break before she heads back into Scottish camp again anyway. So instead of spending their 2 weeks off in Europe they might do the opposite and be in aus together. For those playing in euro qualifiers like Kirsty, Katie, daan etc they will finish their July window a week ish before the Olympics starts so as long as their clubs don’t want them in pre season straight away they should be good to be there during the matches. Think I saw somewhere Liverpool start pre season on the 22nd July but assume different schedules would be made for internationals.
Oh wow, that seems so ridiculously early! The Olympics haven't even started by that date, and with the July international break it doesn't seem like the players get a whole heap of time off. Arsenal and Chelsea have their USA pre-season camps, and the games being around the 19th of Aug, so guessing they'll be there maybe a week or so before? Not that I'm expecting our Aussie girls to be a part of it (or at least that's what I'm hoping). It would be hard for both teams though because quite a few of their squads will competing at the Olympics.
Would imagine that start date is only for those who have no international football this summer. No chance are players being called in for pre season a few days after their international break has finished. But really when you think about the season ending on 18th May, to July 22nd that’s actually a pretty long break for someone who’s not playing international football. Intentional players would be in from August at some point i imagine.

That early preseason date is for the players who don’t have international matches. Lyon does that too, last year their preseason was in full swing near the end of July for everyone who wasn’t at the World Cup. The ones who have Euro qualifiers will get a chunk of time off before having to join but probably not the whole tournament. The group stage and maybe the QF games seem likely

Agree with all this. I reckon the Europe players may spend a week with fam, decompress with family after their long seasons, and then as has been said, pop off back to Europe to go on holidays for a week with their partners (although now that Macca and Kirsty have just spent a week in Greece, Caitlin & Katie and Ellie & Daan are the only two that spring to mind). EVE and Torps are in-season so guess they'll go back to play in games. Same with Polks.

Looking into what they did in Tokyo (baring it mind it was Covid, but still think it'll be similar) they had a transition camp in Sweden that started a month before the Olympics did, and then 2 weeks out from the Olympics they flew to Japan for their final camp and had one last game against Japan.

Applying that to this year. A month before the Olympics is exactly June 25th, which is nicely a Monday. So potentially 2 weeks somewhere in Europe and then they'll move to France for the final 2 weeks before their first game, and line up one last prep game against one of the Olympic teams in the FIFA July window (just prob not the US, Germany or Zambia).
I do wonder who they will play a prep game against, the European sides have important matches in the FIFA July window so wonder if it'll be maybe Nigeria or Brazil?

The ones who don’t need to be back in Europe will probably just stay unless they have plans to holiday somewhere else. A guarantee though is probably that everyone will be having a vacation of some kind whether it’s in Aus or elsewhere
Only one we know who is staying in aus a bit longer is macca. That talk she’s doing with tony is 10th June I think, so she must be staying for atleast a week after the china games if not for even longer.

The ones based in Europe (especially with partners there) will definitely be flying back. Others may choose to stay home for a while or go on a holiday wherever they want before heading off to Olympics camp.

My friend just messaged me from the Panthers Cronulla match. As they were leaving they ran into Mary Fowler in the car park by herself. Said she was super sweet and took some pics with her young daughters and spoke to them for awhile. They said how they were planning to buy her Barbie and she was excited by this and hugged the girls.
Cute!! The Barbie’s unfortunately will not be for sale though. The Barbie Instagram account replied to someone asking when they would be going on sale saying that they are one of a kind and only one doll was made for each of the women. So there is only one Mary Fowler Barbie, we won’t be able to buy it ourselves
That’s so annoying! There are many people who would buy all of the dolls in that collection. Mary and Christine Sinclair would sell really well but I’m also thinking about the ones of dolls in sports that are less “mainstream popular”, how cool would it have been for girls/adults too to buy a doll representing the sport they play? Missed opportunity by Mattel on that. Surely they’d make profit off of selling those dolls, even if they just did a limited edition run

I would most definitely not be judging foords performance last night when playing jet lagged under Jonas lol. She’s a star for the national team, will probably score in the China series. Foord, raso and Fowler shine when they put on the Australian shirt. The huge support going into this tournament shouldn’t be underestimated at all. When you get the love you deserve it pushes you to another level.
💯 Agree with this anon. Listening to Cait's post match interview, it seems like she's lacking in confidence. In past interviews, it's been said she performs better when the coach has confidence in her. Luckily, Tony G has definitely got her back, so she can rest and focus for the Olympics.
It was frustrating to watch last night her be pushed out so wide. She was often hugging the touch line, while Viv and Cloe were given more freedom on the RW to drift inwards. She has so much more confidence with the Tillies because she can get centrally and create those chances.
She was a standout for me on the pitch. She is sooo fast and her ball work is insane to see in person. Arsenal just don’t have players in the box ready to score the goal. So many times the ball ended up at someone’s feet and they didn’t attempt a shot, or just entirely fumbled it.
Agreed. Every time she got the ball, she was able to move it forward and into the box. It really frustrates me that she is constantly only on the wing and never moves more centrally when she plays for Arsenal, at least this season. This was not an issue last season.
Last season with the injury crisis I think they all had more freedom to play how they like. This meant cait could play more freely across the front three and stick true to her instincts. Now with everyone back, the coaching staff clearly have very strict tactics. One of them is for Cait to stay far left on the wing to draw defenders out of the box. Cait can do this because her 1v1 and dribbling is much stronger than the average winger, but it can be frustrating to watch because she has to do the same thing over and over based on where he has her playing. Honestly hope she’ll have some good games at the Olympics and Jonas will see she works better when able to move more freely. He did mention that he noticed that in the last few games of the season, and Cait got assists in those games often from RW area with Beth in the number 9 position. But it was reverted back for the Aus game, likely due to the available squad and who can play where.

Unfortunately, that seems to be the case. It looks like that coach doesn't have any big plans for Caitlin next season, they'll probably just use her as a super sub.

I didn’t realise Real Madrid had a game on the 26th - 27th our time. No wonder Ras has been quiet. She may not be playing in Adelaide either.

Caitlin being a little shit stirring the pot 🫠
?? Care to explain what I’ve obviously missed hahaha
She commented “yeh the engagement” on Mac’s post clearly saying they are not engaged lmao
She’s a little shit 😂 I love the trio winding each other up and playing into the banter all the time. Glad to see it clearly hasn’t bothered Mac as Caitlin wouldn’t joke about it if that was the case! No harm done.
Haha, just saw Macca's comment on Cait's post. Gotta love their friendship 😂
