Ah, the old "the players we chose were exactly the ones we were after" - that's the second time this year I've fallen for that!

Jokes aside, and admittedly I don't have as big a grasp on the AFLW draftees as I do the guys (and that's limited anyway), but Sarah and Grace seem good options. We want to play and run and carry style, to which both of those players seem well suited. Sarah is assessed as complementing our inside mids primarily in Alyce Parker and Bec Beeson, and hopefully she and Kaitlyn Srhoj can form a partnership to help that part of our game. Grace appears to be more of a utility, so a good option who can be thrown into any of the three lines to both attack and defend. Potentially added firepower in midfield, or in defence.
Both Sara and Grace have what you want in AFLW recruits which is speed/evasiveness and footy IQ. So hopefully they can aid the likes of Parker, Goldsworthy, Evans, and Srhoj in turning the club around.

A short clip, but a lot to like in what's there!

Your club's best 21: Who's in, who's out, who's new
Gemma Bastiani has compiled her predicted starting 21 for each team after the conclusion of the Trade Period and Telstra AFLW Draft

If the Giants can get defensive duo Chloe Dalton and Eleanor Brown back to their fit and firing best, it will do a world of difference to the side's back 50. Isabel Huntington looks at her best when playing as an intercepting key defender, so is expected to stay in that half of the ground, so too Cambridge McCormick and Pepa Randall. The run Kaitlyn Srhoj adds coming out of half-back is crucial, while she can also move up through the wings as part of a rotation with Madison Brazendale and draftee Sara Howley. With added depth in defence, Tarni Evans can make her home in attack where she adds a sense of dynamism both in the air and on the ground, and Taylah Levy can also offer some support through the forward line and midfield. This unfortunately pushes Jess Doyle out of the best side, while Irish recruit Grace Kôs is an unknown at this stage of the year.
B: Cambridge McCormick, Pepa Randall
HB: Emily Pease, Isabel Huntington, Kaitlyn Srhoj
C: Madison Brazendale, Bec Beeson, Sara Howley
HF: Zarlie Goldsworthy, Georgia Garnett, Tarni Evans
F: Alicia Eva, Brodee Mowbray
Foll: Eilish O'Dowd, Alyce Parker, Mikayla Pauga
I/C: Chloe Dalton, Eleanor Brown, Haneen Zreika, Katherine Smith, Taylah Levy
Depth: Aliesha Newman, Meghan Gaffney, Claire Ransom, Daisy Walker, Jess Doyle, Indigo Linde, Fleur Davies, Grace Kôs, Grace Martin
No doubt just a glitch with the profile of Bernasconi but wouldn't mind it being more than that.
