Yeah I was going to say, she didn’t play at all this past season?

Not sure how accurate it is, but Teen Wolf (who seems to get a bit of AFLW info) posted on the main board that they have heard we have secured Kaitlyn Ashmore which would be a nice pick up. AFL site is also saying that we are interested in Pheobe McWilliams who I know nothing about.I am just so sick of being pillaged.
Didn’t Kaitlyn play for us originally? Edit: Yeah we drafted her in 2013, then she was taken by Brisbane and then North Melbourne. She is 30 now.Not sure how accurate it is, but Teen Wolf (who seems to get a bit of AFLW info) posted on the main board that they have heard we have secured Kaitlyn Ashmore which would be a nice pick up.

Great. Now Lochland is going to Sydney.
Three forwards down since the end of the season.
Don't know if Ashmore is secured, but "most likely" destination is the latest I heard (though she has received, and reciprocated, lots of interest from other clubs).Not sure how accurate it is, but Teen Wolf (who seems to get a bit of AFLW info) posted on the main board that they have heard we have secured Kaitlyn Ashmore which would be a nice pick up.

McWilliams is an old pro (particular emphasis on the old at this stage--turns 37 in late August), albeit a bit of a frustrating player even in her prime. Fairly textbook key forward who can play a role for any team really in need for the next year or two. Led Geelong's goal-kicking last season with 1 per game.
Not even interested in the women’s league now that they have screwed us over so hard.
AFLW players: "we want to be recognised as professionals like the men, and be compensated better."
Next minute, Toogood and Prespakis leave because "I want to play for the team I barracked for years ago".
It would be a bonus for them that they get to play for the team they barracked for, but wouldn't be the main reason why they left for.Hahahaha. What a sh1tfully administered competition. F*** off Livingstone.
Also, AFL players by and large are drafted and remain with clubs. Who they barracked for as kids becomes largely irrelevant.

Amateurs all round.

It's hard to judge because form can fluctuate so much week to week and across the season, especially with the younger girls.Disappointing but I guess more poaching was/is expected. Lochland is 31 now and we've clearly got the best out of her physically but she still was an important cog in the leadership group.
I broke down our 2022A list last night into three separate groups and came up with the following, would be interested in your thoughts.
Sorry for misquoting and thanks for the infoDon't know if Ashmore is secured, but "most likely" destination is the latest I heard (though she has received, and reciprocated, lots of interest from other clubs).

Only in exhibition games. She was drafted to Brisbane for the AFLW.Didn’t Kaitlyn play for us originally? Edit: Yeah we drafted her in 2013, then she was taken by Brisbane and then North Melbourne. She is 30 now.
Which ones exactly? Going back to your home state, which also appears to be less prevalent than previous years, is not the same as leaving to join your childhood club.Male players join childhood clubs all the time
Half the trade board is about x player grew up supporting us so we should trade for him
That's a relief, AFLW team can only lose 2 more players to expansion teams this year. Clubs have had a go at extracting Blackburn and Lamb, so I guess Fitzgerald, Brown or Morris-Dalton are next to be targeted, and if any go to expansion teams there's SFA the club can do about it.Some more details on how many players clubs can lose.
