I see that Mel hasn't played since week 36 and hasn't gone on an Australian trip late in the year like the last couple of years, although none of the girls has.
Injured, I think - earlier this week she tweeted: "Got news from my surgeon today things are looking good with my wrist,progressing well & going to be hitting with normals balls next week "
