2025–26 A-League Women — regular season matches

Upsides: Henry starting and McMahon back on the bench

Downsides: No Butrusball (concussion protocols)

No Dani Butrus? That's a shame, I really like her (as a person and player) and highly rate her. Born in Iraq (she's Assyrian) but seems very committed to Australia.

Karly Roestbakken also starting her second straight game for Melbourne City this season in addition to Shelby McMahon finally making her return from injury after a month out.

That's pretty poor from Keane ngl (who I've always considered a bit dirty). Lucky to only get a cheese there

This ref hates Brisbane

Holly McNamara converts a penalty in the 42nd minute to put Melbourne City 1-0 up and take the outright lead in the Golden Boot race on nine goals.

Are we agreed that was never a pen

Bryleeh Henry yellow carded in the 56th minute, becoming the third player overall to get a yellow card today after Alicia Woods and Aideen Keane got yellow carded in the first half.

Shelby McMahon finally making her return from injury after a month on the sidelines, replacing Bryleeh Henry in the 74th minute.

Ashlyn Miller scores the equaliser for Brisbane Roar in the 87th minute, with Alicia Woods getting the assist. Scores now level at 1-1 near the end of regulation time.

Dirty as a person or player? Seems like a pretty nice person.

I don't think Aideen Keane has a discipline problem especially since she only has the one yellow card this season and has never gotten a red card throughout her career in addition to not getting a yellow card altogether last season, and the most yellow cards she's gotten in a season was three in season 2022-23.

The APL should either start caring more about the ALW or hand it over to Football Australia.

The APL is running on fumes and this is to the detriment of both the women's and the men's game.

 

[FoordMustang]

1-0 Jets at home! Cass Davis with a powerful finish from close range. Adelaide really ought to have cleared the ball before it happened.

 

[rebelliousfeminist974]

Newcastle Jets leading Adelaide United 1-0 at the half after Cassidy Davis scored in the 27th minute, with Charlotte Lancaster getting the assist.

 

[FoordMustang]

Adelaide equalise! A great chance for Erin Healy and the Irish forward does what the Reds pay her to do.

 

[FoordMustang]

2-1 Adelaide! Carina Rossi's first ALW goal and what a time to get it.

 

[HonestSpursFan]

Full time: 2–1. Entertaining match!

On an unrelated note if Sydney don't win any of our next three games then I'm calling off finals. As of now we'll scrape finals.

Loving the closeness of the league with only five points separating 1st from 9th albeit with slightly unequal games played.
Melbourne City aren’t a sure thing for the premiership but Sydney FC and the Wanderers are well off the pace and probably won’t make the finals.
