Need to target 3 points here - Glory are okay but much better at home than away, chance for us to rebuild momentum after some tough fixtures and push up the table.

Yes hope to see a more attacking line up for this one . Prob don't need two DMs. Can bring in Main or Tanaka
McMeekon prob deserves a start at RB. With Kelly to the bench. Jaber and Barry as CBs.
And FFS can Whinham have some luck. Be great if she can get a goal in front of home crowd.

Not impressed with Perth,we should win if we can find a damn goalscorer from somewhere.

Templeman was exposed in goal for Perth,but I'm not over impressed with her replacemen Dumont either.

Gale force winds forecast of course.

Jeez - thats a crazy list of unavailable players for Perth - hopefully we can make the most of it! And probably lucky not to face Brown, with the wind and the history with us, I think she could have caused us a couple of problems

Gee we look lively so far. Tanaka hit the post after a cross eluded the Glory keeper. The wind is clearly lifting a bit and we're using big looping crosses well to give them trouble. Keep playing like this and we will hopefully score soonish.

Jaber having a rough old game.

Annoyed to be stuck home rather than at the game. An enjoyable watch so far

Not a bad attempt. Great work from Jale.

Been a close game in the middle but we look sharper going forward. Love to get one before half time it would be deserved. And man is it refreshing to see a Nix team play positively and on the front foot!

Tough against the wind,but we have put ourselves under pressure too often by going back.

We need Elliott and Main in for Ferguson and Tanaka.

Tanaka is getting into good positions, but agree that some more pace in the final third would help. Whinham is playing well, running into the space between their midfield and back lines

Tanaka is looking like she wants a goal this week. We seem to have good intent but occasionally not making the best choices

What’s the apple chant about? I thought it was air ball when I arrived but it’s obviously not 😂

The number 9 got a fine for bringing an apple across the border 🤓

Jale! Really finding her feet now for us. Brings something different too in a team with quite a few slighter more technical players

And now she's had to go off, this has not been a good week for her.

Holy shark that was close! Cracking effort that hit the crossbar for Glory. Warning shot for us, time to focus

The balance for us is really important imo. Particularly in midfield and attack we have options - players with excellent technique and vision, players with pace that can make a run, players with physicality that can hold the ball up and win a challenge. Really keeps opposition teams guessing.

I like the depth we have. Temple made a bunch of subs and they all had an impact.

Only seen second half but solid all-round performance. 1000 percent better than previous displays.

The women getting one over the men once again.

They are a refreshing watch right now, especially with how poor the men performed last night and against Newcastle.

It would also be nice if people supported them throughout thick and thin like they do for the men. The praise is good but the good vein of form this team is in is about so much more than just dunking on how poor the mens side are at the moment.

Pretty good from us today, but out of all our recent games it was definitely the easiest on paper as Glory are one of the weaker sides and tend to struggle on the road. Good to get the job done but still a few work ons ahead of the next few games which are all winnable too.

Definitely, just want to make it clear, I'm not just watching the women because of how poor the men's performances have been lately, I've been following since the very first game.

Like with the men, if I've missed a game or not had the chance to watch it live, I'll follow along with the live score or watch the game later when I get home.

Enjoyable and comfortable win,but should have been considerably more comfortable really.

We need to see more Elliott and Main I think.

I'd play Jale central,she can hold the ball up better than Ferguson. Ferguson with a good finish for sure today, but I'm not a fan.

Longo was excellent today, enormous work rate
