We often play "roles" as assigned to your position on the field...which can be largely misguided, as superior players are usually complete players, whom are versatile enough to play in many different positions, every goalkeeper needs to know how to play with their feet, just as well as they can play with their hands, if not better. <br/><br/>Thanks again for the post Steve, and the link Klean Sheet!

Australian GK Melissa Barbieri is another survivor:

"When she was only 19 she had made the Matildas training squad as a midfielder.

Melissa took up goalkeeping in 2000 after being misdiagnosed with a back injury. Told she would never play football again she asked, "What if I don’t run around so much?" Rather than give up the game, she made the move to goalie.

This was not such a stretch as you might think. Melissa had played basketball for some years and so her ball skills were already in place. It only took two years for her to be back in the Matildas in the number one jersey (goalkeepers traditionally wear the number one)."
