Sam Kerr is the best talent the National Women’s Soccer League has ever produced.
I found myself in the middle of a small Twitter tornado, once, tweeting that exact sentiment without noting the W-League's (as seen, below) or the Australian federation’s roles in developing the world’s best player. Apologies, Oz. I didn’t mean anything by it, but having seen Kerr play in the United States since 2013 – having seen her develop from an insanely-athletic wide threat into a forward that seems capable of doing things the women’s game has never seen, before – it’s hard not to take some ownership, at least on an emotional level.
