#i think people also don't realize that Tobin plans on using this body for other things as well

There’s nothing wrong with assuming retirement, I hope we’re wrong but just think logically where we’re at:

- she left arsenal as soon as she could to be closer to her wife. She wanted ACFC but Loserville wouldn’t give up her rights so she settled for Seattle as that was at least the West Coast.

- She had a 2023 player option at OL Reign that she’s clearly declined, she wouldn’t of declined it without a better option available

- it’s a week until the season and she’s still not training or signed to a team. All she’s doing is being a WAG attending events with Christen, and working on Re inc stuff.

So the logical conclusion is only one of two things. A) she’s going to sign with ACFC eventually, but not until she’s completely healthy. Or B) she’s decided to retire.

Yup.

Until very recently we have all been going with option A, but the longer it takes the more likely option B becomes.

If she isn't completely healthy at this point she hit a wall somewhere, which isn't surprising. For some reason people just can't deal with the fact that players, especially 34 year old players often retire due to their bodies not being fit enough anymore for pro sports.

If she does sign for ACFC she clearly decided to give it another try. If she doesn't then she may have simply not wanted to put her body through more grueling rehab and training.
