Switching back! AFLW convert Simmons returns to netball
Verity Simmons is returning to netball, with the West Coast Eagles AFLW convert set to make a comeback in her original sport with the NSW Swifts next year.

Real late to the party on this but I just wanna say, I hope as a serious AFLW club we do away with these kinds of signings. Nothing against Verity, she was signed as a rookie and played 7 games. But if we're gonna be a serious football club we can't be signing athletes from other codes who haven't touched a footy until they're in their early 30's surely.
That was a years worth of time and resources flushed down the crapper that could've been used on a younger player.
