Featuring Commbank Matildas and Socceroos stars Emily van Egmond, Courtney Nevin, Awer Mabil, Marco Tilio and more! The Under 11s Merridale Fever are back! They’re having their best season ever, and even better – they have the chance to play as Half-time Heroes at a Socceroos game. All they have to do is make a video showing what makes their team special. Instead of working together, the team take sides and try to convince each other that their way is the best way. Can tips from some of Australia’s best footballers help the Fever agree on what makes them heroes? Part of an expansive publishing program in the lead-up to the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup™ hosted by Australia and New Zealand. "
