Welcome Bridie!

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Got a bit of Hosking or Loynes about her. Welcome Bridie.

Told you we would get Kennedy ...

Oh no, the bow is her trademark:

Don't mind the bow at all as long as she can play! Though a switch to a navy blue one for matchday would be nice

 

[drunkill]

Our very own ribbon girl!

 

[BlueGum]

Welcome Bridie. Run like the wind.

WITH a bright pink ribbon tied around her high pony tail – so her grandfather can clearly see her – Blues fans won’t miss Bridie Kennedy when she runs out for Carlton next season.

In only her second year playing Aussie Rules, Kennedy won the inaugural TAC Cup Girls best-and-fairest award – highlighting her talent and natural ability.

Position: Ruck

Height: 175cm

I'm guessing she won't be a ruck too often at AFL level, hopefully she can be a bigger bodied mid? Though her own comments suggest key defence or third tall.

She's all smiles in that interview, great teeth too!

Love it.

Ribbon in her hair so her granddad could see her easier. Classy individual i reckon. I rate her already.


Welcome to the Blues Bridie.

Pick 9, Collingwood: Bridie Kennedy (Cranbourne/Dandenong Stingrays, VIC)
Position: Defender/Ruck
While a lot of the draft focus has been on Chloe Molloy, it can’t be forgotten that Bridie Kennedy, who shared the TAC Cup best and fairest with Molloy, is also a fantastic prospect. Though she was dominant in the ruck during the youth competition early in the season, Kennedy proved to be strong in defence for Cranbourne, an area she is likely to play most of her footy.
Draft notes: If she’s still available, Collingwood will not be able to look past Kennedy. With Emma King developing her forward capabilities in the VFLW, the Magpies will be able to bring in another star ruck and have two versatile talls on their hands.
