I read the inclusion of Austin as being more of an opportunity to expose her to that higher performance environment and get her in the system for the future. It’s no different to others being invitees in the past like Dwan or Mundy. Agree she’s still a long way off that level, but every time she’s given an opportunity she rises to it, and this is a great development opportunity. Whereas Mannix has been included as recognition of her great season and to see if she can replicate it with the Diamonds too.
ATN comes in as an invitee.
Wonder if Hincliffe or Jenner will get an invitee spot now that Mannix may not be attending (my assumption there, slap me if I’m out of order).
I’m surprised that that’s the only invitee although I do like the choice.
I probably would’ve had another defender to replace Mannix and maybe even Tayla Williams.
Hopefully SM will be adding Tayla W to the squad!
Rudi Ellis and Ruby Bakewell-Doran have been added as invitees.

Great for those players.
I’m worried that these 2 late inclusions mean something is not right with a couple of the squad members. I won’t name names because I don’t want to jinx anyone.
I figured they’d invite another defender to replace Mannix, but interesting they’ve included both.
When does the team get announced?
A new cycle begins.

Wow, Ellis invitee one minute and into the squad the next! Weston and Bruce injured I assume.
Weston and Bruce injured according to Facebook. So only Wallam and Mundy not selected from wider squad (other than invitees. Although that doesn’t work for Ellis)
