Nat Exon was a favourite of mine, and many really, and will be tough to replace.
Jakobsson is an excellent mark, but an average kick. Our 'female casboult'. I think she is a bit older too IIRC.
Bella Ayre gave us some good moments but has a lot of limitations for the long term. Speed, endurance and overall athleticism is lacking in comparison to Harris.
So basically, Harris is a big upgrade up forward on Ayre/Jakobbson. It gives us the best 1-2 forwardline in the league with Vescio. We already have the best defender in the league (Davey) and upgraded that area with Stevens, B+F winner from Collingwood. Giving us the best 1-2 backline in the league.
Our midfield stocks are not too shabby. Sarah Hosking is a better version of Nat Exon, and hopefully getting her twin sister Jess back from injury provides the cover we need there.
Put money on us to win the flag now.

If nothing else, think of the marketing this girl can bring us....

She is/was a marquee player and a face of the AFLW.

The Club is making a massive statement by luring over the best young key forward in the comp, along with Collingwood's All Australian B&F winner. With Harris, Vescio, Stevens, and Davey, we'll be star studded next year, and the flag is a realistic objective.
The old days are back, albeit in the AFLW!!

Its not just about luring someone over, its about being a place that they WANT to come too. Something our blokes are struggling to setup.
