The first of 2 Queenslanders in the initial Matilda's line-up is the latest to join the GFP.

Sue Monteith, Matilda #9, has nominated the Newmarket SFC from Brisbane's inner northern suburbs as her GrassRoots club.
The girl from McCook Park picked up the first of her 23 caps at Seymour Shaw Oval in Miranda in 1979 and would be a mainstay of the Australian midfield till 1987.

Sue coached the Australian Schoolgirls in 1988, a side that included no less than 8 future Matildas, including Cheryl Salisbury.

She is the 3rd of the first Matildas to join the Project and it is truly an honour to have her aboard.

    the author

    Greg Werner began playing in 1965, with the GrassRoots club of Socceroo skipper Murray Barnes, a change of suburb at age 6 and a new club, one that would become the GrassRoots club of Rob Wheatley & after a 27 year hiatus came back to playing with the GrassRoots club of Socceroos Steve Perry, Richie Bell, Chris Iconomidis & Matilda, Justine Fisher, one could say that the links with the NT are ingrained.
    At age 55, when his body gave up on playing, he took up the whistle to stay actively involved. In November of 2014 he created the GFP on Facebook to fill the void left by those in control of the game & in January 2016 launched this website.
