Ms JODIE HARRISON (Charlestown—Minister for Women, Minister for Seniors, and Minister for the Prevention of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault)— It's not just at the women's football at the international level which is sparking the imagination of sports fans across Australia—club membership and A‑League Women's game attendance is climbing, and women and men of all ages are finding new sporting heroes to cheer on.

Cass Davis is a Kotara local and veteran of the Newcastle Jets. She's the team captain, the team's most-capped player and an absolute legend of the women's game in the Newcastle area—and in the Jets' Round 3 clash against the Western Sydney Wanderers, she once again proved her football bona fides with a scorcher of a goal in stoppage time.

It was a hard-fought game, possession pretty closely evenly matched between the sides. The first goal didn't come until the seventy-ninth minute, with the Wanderers' Vicky Bruce finding the back of the net with a header—but the Jets did not let up. Two minutes into injury time, Captain Cass kicked a legendary goal—in her milestone 132nd game, she scored one for the ages to take the game to a tie. What a moment! Good on you, Cass!
