Three pairs of staring eyes in the Glover household have instantaneously been glued to every single step the Matildas take on the football pitch for close to a decade now.

They only break their steely focus to let out the customary raucous cheer the moment their idols go forward with the ball.

The Indigenous devotees of the world game know the women's story all too well and identified before the rest of the nation caught on and took the team to their hearts.

From the couch in front of the telly inside their South Coast home to the vocal terraces at one of Sydney's newest coliseums, the triplets fixate on the Matildas' generational-changing ways waiting one day to emulate their deeds.

"They know heaps about them, and they love to imitate them," Dad Jason Glover says.

But the Wiradjuri 16-year-olds are more than just gushing fans wanting a selfie.

They are more like three of the leading Indigenous players of their state.

Laini, Hailee and Bridie Glover starred in the statewide Indigenous NAIDOC Cup prior to watching their heroes perform up close on the recent Women's World Cup.

They mimic not only the moves when it is their turn to pull on the boots, but the little detail right down to the mannerisms.

"They know they have their own favourite players – each of them," Jason says.

"They do a lot of their little things."

For the Glovers, their guiltiest indulgences of vanity is about the hair and how to wear it.

Laini loves Ellie Carpenter to the point that she wears this "funny little" ribbon, dad explains, just like the blonde defender.

Hailee is Hayley Raso for obvious reasons, and she copies her namesake tying up the hair up in a bow.

Bridie, especially proud of her Indigenous heritage, has adored Anaiwan, Biripi and Kamiloroi veteran, Kyah Simon, who straightens the hair under a headband.

"You know the whole you can't be what you can't see," Jason says.

But that adage would have forced Bridie to glance repeatedly to the bench after the omission of Simon from the Matildas lineups across the tournament on the back of nine previous months out with a serious knee injury.

The curls have got a good working out in their own backyard internationals between two apple trees at one end and the garage door for goals opening at the other end.

That advanced to a bigger playing field over the years, with the lounge room window the best stand for viewing and the safest from cannonfire shots in the growing years.

"If you ask anyone in my street, we've always had pop-up goals out in my frontyard because it is square shaped," Jason says.

"It's funny because they'd be up all year round, and the goals would be so sun-faded, we would have to get a new set again.

"It would be common for them to see me park the car anywhere else because there would be shots flying left, right and centre at these pop-up goals."

This progression has moved to the NSW National Premier Leagues 2 competition and South East Phoenix youth where the best of a greater Illawarra area take on rivals across every football hub in Sydney.

While Jason coached his daughters in their early days, his wife Lisa takes to the roads as the designated driver from the tranquility of Sussex Inlet to playing in the pockets of the many busy suburbs, and as far north onto Gosford.

The car departs in the darkness for hours-long drives when the top-level matches kick off the chilly dew.

"At our local club soccer, it felt like we were taking them everywhere," Jason says.

"There are times now my wife and myself are on the Albion Park bypass at 4:30 or 5 in the morning, looking at each other as the girls sleep in the back."

The fraternal triplets are unsure where the game will take them, but their direction is as unified and committed as the early morning starts.

That's where the rivalry of their childhood fun games go out the front door, turning the fraternal triplets into bonded teammates walking to the pitch behind one another.

"On game days, they are really supportive of each other out there," Jason says.

"They might occasionally give each other a bit of a razz when one does something a bit silly, but you can hear them talking directly to each other on the field.

"If one does something good, you'd hear Bridie at the back yelling out to Laini."

That's where Bridie stands staunchly in defence, Laini covers a hectic midfield and Hailee's ready to pounce up front.

"We know that each other has each other's backs and know we can pass the ball down the field to one another, knowing that the other will be there in support," the triplets collectively say.

They rise and fly as one Phoenix together in one of the most competitive levels of the regional game in Australia.

The triplets admit the advantage of having an identical bloodline does not just benefit their aptitude for the sport that comes from a sports-loving dad, who returned to what was commonly called soccer in his day after short stints in rugby union and Australian rules footy.

But they do surprise their gawking opponents, who couldn't be blamed for losing the lookalikes.

"We are not identical, but do look similar," the Glovers say.

"We don't play tricks, but we do know that a lot of people get us all confused when on the field.

"Maybe that's why our current coach has put us in different positions, so she can tell who we are and where we are on the field."
