Early life

Vine was born on 9 April 1998, in Shepparton, Victoria, to parents Heidi and Gary Vine.[2][3] She began playing football at the age of five, alongside her brother Jayden, at St Georges Road Primary School.[4][5] When Vine was seven, her family moved to Mango Hill, a northern suburb of Brisbane, Queensland.[2][4][6] She continued her football with Deception Bay Dragons and Redcliffe Dolphins, initially playing on her older brother's team.[4] By the age of 12, she had earned a spot at the Queensland Academy of Sport and was playing for Peninsula Power before eventually signing for Brisbane Roar in 2015.[4][7][8]

Club career

Brisbane Roar

Vine made her debut for the Brisbane Roar on 25 October 2015 at age 16 in a match against the Western Sydney Wanderers.[9][10] She made seven appearances for the team during the 2015–16 W-League season. Brisbane finished in fourth place in the regular season, securing a berth to the play-offs.[10] In the semi-finals against regular season champions Melbourne City, the Roar lost 5–4 on penalties after 120 minutes of regular and extra time produced no goals for either side.[11]

In the following 2021/22 season she contributed a total of six goals in 10 games. In the two playoff games, she scored another three goals, and she and her teammates became premiers again. She won the championship and premiership double with her club in the 2022/23 season, scoring seven goals in 21 games.[15]

On 14 June 2024, Sydney announced that Vine would leave the club to pursue an opportunity in the NWSL in the United States.[16]
