MELBOURNE CITY

Ins:

None announced.

Outs:

Emma Checker, Emily van Egmond, Kyah Simon, Ellie Carpenter, Lydia Williams, Steph Catley, Claire Emslie, Rebekah Stott

The big question:

Will they bring a marquee to the W-League? Lisa de Vanna, perhaps? Yukari Kinga and Lauren Barnes are also potentially available, as they never secured WSL deals.

Analysis:

Well, no prizes for guessing who this offseason's big loser has been. Having lost practically the entire spine of their squad (and then some) it's hard to feel sorry for the W-League's perennial powerhouses but you have to feel a little for Rado Vidosic.

The good news is they always invest heavily in their program, so expect the next generation to come through in style at the Melbourne club. Very exciting viewing indeed.

Last season's squad:

Chelsea Blisset, Emma Checker, Melissa Barbieri (GK), Sofia Sakalis, Emily van Egmond, Kyah Simon, Nia Stamatopoulos, Rhali Dobson, Tyla-Jay Vlajnic, Ellie Carpenter, Lydia Williams, Lauren Barnes, Yukari Kinga, Steph Catley, Claire Emslie, Milica Mijatovic
