We first joined in 2009 with our first tweet by editor Ann Odong.

4 ½ years, 33,600 tweets, 5 W-League seasons, 1 Asian Cup and a World Cup later, we are still here with a team that has grown to 12 passionate members.
We also thought that this would be a chance to look at some of the first tweets of some Australian footballers.
