KerrUnch

The West must be in panic mode.
For months there has been only one story of the FIFA women's cup: Sam Kerr.
One player. One team. With occasional mention of some other team that has been set against Sam and "us".
Now Sam Kerr is injured! Oh no :-(

Sports writers scrabble for a story. Describe the injury in detail. Guess about time to recover.
In journalists' pubs across the city: Does anyone know the names of any other teams? Players? Are there any foreign players with acceptable names and nationalities?
Will any of these foreign players talk to a journalist? I have my chequebook.
No more easy "local" stories.
Desperate times for lazy reporters.
