Ash Wilson has named a 16-woman squad for this weekend’s crunch clash with Adelaide United.
Headlining the squad is the return of Libby Copus-Brown, who cut a frustrated figure last Thursday night as she watched her side fall to Perth Glory, sitting out due to suspension incurred by yellow-card accumulation.
Although she was pushing hard for a return this weekend, Nicki Flannery remains relegated to the injury list as her lower-leg injury continues to heal. Annabel Martin will also miss out.
