I was pondering the line up too.

I broadly agree. Carter may hold her place at right back.

JRK may start at the expense of Fleming, with James pushed infield. Lauren has been given the number 10 shirt, after all.

Ingle is looking very much a back up this year.

For me, Buchanan and Perisset have been the most impressive of the new arrivals - no huge surprise there.

Kerr and Fleming are playing not one but two friendlies Down Under (Buchanan has passed due to injury) - so I wouldn't be surprised to see both start on the bench for the first WSL match. But I would also imagine that the club is making sure they're not flying back from Oz in steerage!

BTW, I'm intrigued by the Sunday morning "ghost game" at Cobham. It's common for US college women's teams to practice against men - is this something that's done by WSL teams?
