I might consider Balcer instead of Weaver based purely on production. West wins because they win the midfield battle. Assuming the game is played as a friendly with only light tackling, the final score could be 7-5.
Thought about that too. Settled on Weaver cause she’s both the better overall player and actually has more contributions (7 G/A vs. 6 G/A) than Balcer.
Hmm good point. I'd probably give her the Fishlock spot given Fishlock hasn't played as much....but I'm also trying to avoid having two teams playing with two 10s and havin too many Thorns.
Totally OT, but here's what I want:

Not sure why this hasn't happened yet honestly. Hosting it in California or Portland the first years would be amazing.
Alright gimme the West (PDX, Seattle, ACFC, SD, Houston, KC) vs. East (Chicago, Gotham, DC, Louisville, Orlando, NCC), traditional 4-3-3s:
West: Weaver-Morgan-Soph (Yeesh)
Debinha-Coffey-Fishlock (Yeesh x2)
Vignola-Girma-Lind-Huerta (There are not many good left backs so I threw ACFC a bone)
Sheridan
Subs: Hina, Thompson, Kizer, Sanchez
East: Rodman-Kerolin-Williams (Yeesh x3)
DeMelo-O'Sullivan-Sanchez (a lil too attacking tbh)
Fox-McKeown-Erceg-Krueger (again, a real shortage of good defenders)
Lund
Subs: Sullivan, Borges, Adriana, Bruninha
Who wins?

What about Dunn?
