Matildas Receive Boost, New Zealand Eyes NRL Licence


The Australian women's football team, the Matildas, have received a significant boost ahead of their upcoming matches. After more than a year out due to injury, 21-year-old sensation Mary Fowler is set to return to the team. This news comes as a welcome relief for the Matildas, who have been dealing with several setbacks recently, including the emotional support needed for star player Sam Kerr[1].

In other football news, a New Zealand consortium has joined the race for an NRL licence. This development indicates a growing interest in expanding the National Rugby League beyond its current Australian boundaries. The consortium's bid highlights the increasing popularity of rugby league in New Zealand and the potential for new teams to join the competition[5].

Additionally, there have been notable updates from individual players. Josh Addo-Carr, a prominent NRL player, has been spotted trying his hand at a new job, showcasing his versatility off the field. Meanwhile, Jarome Luai had a dramatic experience at URBNSURF, where he needed to be rescued, highlighting the unpredictable nature of athletes' lives outside of their sports[5].
