K. Antonio, J. Cuthbertson, A. Franklin, T. Read, M. Seargent & B.Webb I think (???)
wait, I see you already listed them earlier in a post. So I'm not really sure what your question is?
 
Madizen Wilkins is listed on Wikipedia, but I thought she was just a top-up player?!

When are we going to find out what our compo is for Cuthbertson? I thought the AFL said it was going to be the Friday after that period but nothing has been heard.
Wouldn’t surprise me if they now don’t announce it til after the coming season and base it on how teams go.

Don't think it matters anyway, this supp draft is crap

We will end up with the first 5 picks
 
The trade period didn’t go well but it’s still a very good side if we get everyone on the park
Backs: Stannett, O’Driscoll, Low, Pugh, Verrier
Wings: Antonio, Runnalls
Mids: Strom, Miller, Bowers, O’Sullivan
Forwards: Morrison, Roux, Kauffman, Tighe, Tuhakaraina
Int: Scanlon, Gore, Seth, East, Lally

I’m sure I’ve missed someone as well
 
You're missing Gibbs, I reckon. That's a pretty short backline, and I wouldn't be surprised if they have brought Gibbs in to add some height to it, though not sure if she has actually played back at any stage.
 
Wait — I have no idea who half of these are. Anyone remember how they came to the club? Or are they train-ons, and if so, why are they listed on the team page?

They are named on team list as they were named as emergencies during your bad run of injuries.

I think you’ll draft Wilkins - who unfortunately broke her wrist 5 minutes into the WAFLW season. Not sure about the rest, maybe Webb/Flynn.

Yeah, Gibbs could be in there but she struggled to get a game for Carlton.
 
The Carlton site says she took 2022 off and played three games in 2021

and kicked a great goal against us in 2021 AFLW R7 | Gibbs finishes team play with major
I'm okay with limited games at 20/21 years old

Hopefully we can develop her


Gotta be honest though, if we develop her into anything, can already see her walking back to a Vic club, herein lies the problem with AFLW right now
 
So the list of 528 footballers who have nominated for next weeks supplementary draft is now out..... Geez I hope we absolutely nail our 4 picks.... some talent on the east coast that have nominated "all states" - I really hope we are looking not just at the WA hopefuls but over east as well.
 
Hope we have a close look at Sophie Abbatangelo - if she’s nominated for the national draft. Anyone know?
She certainly has - I reckon there's a few that a worth a second look that have nominated "All States"
Sophie Abbatangelo & Elisha King - both ex North Melbourne, both forwards who would give a bit of grunt. King very unlucky, copped a few injuries in her time at North
Yvonne Bonner & Ailish Considine - GWS & Adelaide. Bonner a natural forward (played a bit like a Cora Staunton) and Considine a premiership player with the Crows, more mid/back
Bec Goring & Gen Lawson Tavan. Goring ex captain of the Cats, Lawson Tavan was a sign on for the Swans last year. Both lock down full backs which could free O'Driscoll to go forward.... Although with Pugh and Low already playing lockdown rolls maybe surplus?

Anyway, just some ideas!
