Really can't wait for this, I will be a club member for both sides 100%

Same. Surely we can package both teams' memberships for a win/win situation.

They're chasing women from all sports...very few elite female athletes have ever picked up a sherrin

I reckon Tas, Vic, SA and WA women are likely to have picked one up and kicked with family and schoolmates at least. They might not have had access to comps and chose other sport pathways where their talents could be applied.

That's the whole point right? Create something that attracts some elite athletes to the sport. The only problem is that chasing people from other sports will be at the expense of some people who have been playing the sport their whole lives.
