I think your odds have just improved mate... here's (approximately) how it will all go down...
Culina has a 'career ending' injury but he believes he can get back, even though everyone else has written him off. Some miracle happens and he gets better, but nobody wants to believe him, and he can't get a job in any A-League team as their highly overpaid marquee player. So he starts training the house down, Rocky style, but still... no takers.
So... what now? Bad wig, lipstick, skirts and stint in the W-League with whichever team is bottom of the league, disguised as a foreign player from Estonia, that's what!
Initially, nobody in the team likes Culina (who would?) because he has a bad attitude and personal hygiene issues. But as the season goes on, he learns the hardships of being a female football player, to empathise with his fellow team mates on and off the field, and starts to become a better person. He falls for his captain, and she falls for him, which puts her in an awkward position of thinking she bats for the other team now.
Culina also teaches his teammates a thing or two about believing in themselves, not to mention some of his thug tactics on the field, and successfully manages to lift his (her?) team to top of the table and a grand final win.
Everyone is so happy, and at the grand final celebration dinner/dance, out on a fancy yacht in the middle of Sydney Harbour, with guests including all the A-League and club bosses (including Tinkler), he lets his captain know his true identity. At first she isn't happy about being lied to and tries to leave the party. But, (as mentioned) because the party is out on a fancy yacht in the middle of Sydney Harbour, she doesn't get very far.
Culina shocks the whole party now, taking his wig off in front of everyone and revealing he really isn't a weird looking chick from Estonia, gets up and makes a heartfelt speech about how he is a changed man and blah blah.
He wins the girl and the A-League bosses back, Tinkler offers him his old position back as Marquee player for the Scum, and the captain moves in for a kiss (finally) but he politely declines both.
He then has a sex change and moves to Thailand, fulfilling his original destiny.
The End.
I think I might watch a few too many movies....
