Squads for Newcastle Jets v Adelaide United, Saturday October 29 at Adamstown Oval.
Week 2: Newcastle Jets v Adelaide United
Date: Saturday 29 October 2011
Venue: Adamstown Oval, Newcastle
Local kick-off: 2pm
All eyes will be on the Jets as their star-studded team belatedly takes to the field after last weekend-s bye. The Jets have recruited arguably the biggest trio of star names in the short history of the Westfield W-League. Leading the way is two FIFA Women-s World Cup winner Ariane Hingst, while high profile Matildas Melissa Barbieri and Lisa De Vanna are also set for their Jets debut. A host of young talent has also linked with Clayton Zane-s team led by Emily van Egmond, who returns home after a couple of seasons in Canberra. It is a daunting prospect for a youthful Adelaide United team who are hunting a first victory since Season One of the competition. A 4-1opening defeat against Canberra last week was not the start new coach David Edmondson was seeking.
