Meet our 23 - Mary Fowler

Making her international debut at just 15 years old, Mary Fowler spent the majority of her teenage years in the public eye. Punters calling her ‘the next best thing,’ a ‘teenage prodigy’, ‘the next Sam Kerr,’ she felt the pressure of expectation from a young age.

mary fowler's movement with the ball and off the ball is amazing, moreover her footwork is just incredible and i think she's definetly gonna be the next world superstar

[@AussieLove30]

I'm french and I think she is by far your best player !

[@Funny_jokeman108]

@@AussieLove30let’s have a good game tmr good luck

[@BigCarso]

She has that calm state where nothing is rushed and she just makes the play that she needs to. To be relaxed in that way takes some self control

[@happyolddude]

Hmmmm!@@AussieLove30

[@L.I.V.V.Y]

She is absolutely amazing, Hundred percent going too be the next Kerr, I also cant believe she is only 20 x

Her skill and football IQ is incredible. She gives me a feeling i had watching Maradona, when she gets the ball, you know something is about to happen. Wish her all the best.

[@KFCenthauiast]

Mary Fowler is definitely one of the best in the Matilda’s. Thank you sooo much Mary.

[@nickstoic2944]

Good on you Mary, you are on the right track. Football is a team game. The whole country is behind and proud of you.

[@allanoleary3435]

Wow Best of luck Mary Fowler and the Aussie Matildas. Very grounded, mature, positive and philosophical lady. Aussie, PNG and Irish heritage you are making us all proud Mary. Seeing you hugging your grandfather in the Tallaght stadium in Dublin was very endearing. Even though you play for Australia i think you transend one nation and you represent PNG and Ireland too....in my opinion. Very best of luck against England tomorrow. Work your Magic ☺

[@OzzyTragic]

How can you not love her? Keep going Mary, good on ya

[@sienaa.mcinness2910]

She is one of my biggest inspirations and i love how she is so humble about herself. We love you, Mary!

[@leokimvideo]

Stunning to watch Mary in the World Cup in Australia. Especially more so when Sam Kerr was injured, Mary really shone out.

[@kevinyowait2463]

We'll done, Mary. Greetings from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬

[@alanmills7935]

It’s great to see Mary’s confidence growing on and off the field. I get excited to see how far she will go with the Matildas.

[@hbpencil88]

We love and admire Mary even more after watching this interview. She is an inspiration to my daughters they get electric when she has the ball.

[@dennispack4119]

I get excited every time Mary gets the ball ... you just know something good is going to happen 👍🏽

[@CastledarkDweller27]

Well said!!🎉

Mary was fantastic against France

[@jacksonvanharte9729]

So much wisdom at a young age. Very humble and such an old soul. Cannot wait to watch her career blossom !

All Australians are very proud of you Mary!

[@Football_Squad17]

Let’s gooooo Matilda’s ⚽️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 beat France tomorrow!!! 🙏

[@talitemjenimchen3048]

She is so calm and consistent during the game. What’s even more surprising is that she can score under immense pressure.

[@hubertlaboi7862]

Love her closing words..the music blended in so well. Give her a couple more years and she will be the best midfielder the world has ever seen in women soccer.

[@teamrangnok]

Watching you guys play live right now on TV from states. Good luck 😊

How is she this well spoken at only 20?

I'm gonna start writing a journal

EDUCATION

[@penniemcnamara5094]

Good parental skills

[@arthurmandas7500]

Make no mistake about it, in recent history when Sam Kerr has performed for the Matilda's,so has Mary Fowler. She's picked up the slack in various roles in the midfield & attacking midfield. She's the unsung hero of this campaign up to date & realistically, if she wants it & stays healthy/in form, could play another 4world cups! Class player & obviously a very mature, well spoken young lady.

[@warapletmarn6015]

Great interview 👍 She's a great & talented soccer player. Love watching her play. Go Mary Boio Fowler 🏆 ⚽️

[@timharrap7500]

Goal scorer yes, but her passing is a delight to watch

[@CAPTAINLF]

Mary can change a game, a true football talent.

She will be the best in the world and win Ballon’s D or. Mark my word

[@barth4891]

Mary Fowler is a complete footballer, she and Kerr are my favorites. I wish Matilda's all the best , go and win the female cup 2023. Remember to come to Chelsea so I can always see you. Beautiful lady ❤❤❤

Marry Fowler is one of the best in the squad but sometimes the light is put more on the other players. Now is imported, Matildas to beat England and to play in the finals!!!

Incredibly mature.

[@crazysithslave]

The aflw should take a page out of the matildas book, no need to be obsessed with being lgbtqi friendly and inclusive, just be yourself and enjoy it for what it is, a sports journey that's inclusive for everyone, it's so refreshing to see their games, no rainbow uniforms, no rainbow flags, no rainbow lines on the ground, no sponsors symbols changed to rainbow, just great women representing us all! Love these girls! So proud to be represented by them!

[@BillSaltbush]

Well, they did agree, as a group, to have their numbers displayed in the rainbow colours.

I always knew indigenous talent was not being utilized in soccer enough. I think AFL and Rugby gets pushed onto the youth more. Maybe it's due to a lack of grassy areas? Give the kid a choice between dirt and grass, and they will choose grass everytime.

[@tenpercentfordabigguy8550]

She isnt indigenous. She is PNG and Irish.

[@SmartDumbNerdyCool]

@@tenpercentfordabigguy8550 Well that's even worse then? No indigenous talent being utilized according to your definition

[@tenpercentfordabigguy8550]

@@SmartDumbNerdyCool If they were good enough , they would be playing. They arent so claiming someone just because their skin is about the same shade is just sad.Fowler is proud of her heritage including the Irish part. Maybe thats your problem.

[@SmartDumbNerdyCool]

@@tenpercentfordabigguy8550 What makes you think they aren't good enough, and not an institutional problem? Are you racist?

[@tenpercentfordabigguy8550]

@@SmartDumbNerdyCool Well everyone's a racist according to racists . So you just answered my first question. Let me explain something about professional sport to you and anything that relies on you making money for someone else . This will be a big eye opener as you have obviously not left your moms couch yet. People employ other people who will win games and have the ability to keep improving. They dont give a shit whether you claim falsly to have a right to anything. Only if you are good enough. See any abos in the Matlidas? Try working it out .

[@user-hr1yy4do3d]

Mary you are the best soccer player

[@peterkirgan2921]

Great player & only the straight person in the matildas! Think they basically fkd up pretty ordinary didn't put on a show!! Oh well what do you expect?when soccer is played overseas? Nrl rugby league is our passion!!!

She will be better than Kerr

[@bennuballbags2]

I just love her style, so relaxed and light footed. No ego, no purple hair or hatred of anyone....no feminisms, she is going to go very far just like the Matildas. She has great ball anticipation.
