THE much anticipated AFLW All Australian Squad of 42 has been revealed, with a bit of history being made for the AFLW.
For the first time since the competition became 18 clubs, every single club has at least one player in the squad.
Minor Premiers Adelaide has six players in the squad, while fellow top four sides Melbourne, North Melbourne and Brisbane each had four players.
Emma Kearney is in line to earn her eighth All Australian jacket, while Jasmine Garner and Ebony Marinoff have a chance to earn their sixth each. Also after sensationally missing last year’s squad, Emily Bates makes a return to the squad and becomes the first ever Hawk to make an All Australian Squad.
Port Adelaide and Sydney has also now got their first ever nominees, with Abbey Dowrick, Gemma Houghton, Ally Morphett, Chloe Molloy and Laura Gardiner all making the squad.
The final team of 21 – including the captain and vice captain – will be revealed at the W Awards on Monday November 27.
