Is there anything Brisbane Roar star Jenna McCormick can’t do?
The freakishly talented dual sportswoman has played in the Westfield W-League since 2012 and made her Australian rules football career debut in 2016 for Adelaide Crows.
And she has won silverware in each code: earning the Westfield W-League Premiership with Canberra United (2016/17) and the inaugural 2017 AFL Women’s Premiership with Adelaide.

Westfield W-League stars re-unite
There could be as many as six Westfield Matildas on the pitch involved in the top of the table clash between Portland Thorns and Reign FC in Saturday afternoon’s National Women’s Soccer League clash.
It looks as though Portland players Ellie Carpenter – a second-half substitute in last weekend’s win over Houston Dash – Hayley Raso and Caitlin Foord are in the frame to return to action after the club posted this picture of the Aussie trio on Twitter earlier in the week.

Reign FC players Lydia Williams, Steph Catley and Elise Kellond-Knight missed last Saturday’s 2-0 win against Utah Royals but could return to the fold as Reign aim to wrestle the NWSL lead off the Thorns.
