But the AFL will do it for an expansion club, which is why I suggest her manager has touted standing out for a season.
Dawks, Cheats, Port or Swans enter the comp in 2022 with Tayla as one of the star recruits, I suggest most likely the Swans!

Well they have to get players from somewhere, like the last round of expansion, they pinched most of them for existing clubs.
This is a bone I'd like to pick with the likes of Daisy.... Where are the players going to come from Daisy? The pool seems to have plateaued, certainly in my area, recruitment and numbers are a real issue. What I believe is being covered up is how the AFLW is cannibalising other summer sports - I know that one U18 girl who will be drafted in the first couple is an absolutly elite cricketer, others are elite netballers and tennis players. Bet those sports are real happy about the AFLW summer season being expanded. I just don't believe that the overall pool of girls playing sport is bigger now due to AFLW, it's just shuffled the numbers around across different sports.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

When buddy was going to leave hawks to go to gws, the afl was going to throw plenty of money at him to do so.....like they did with izzy folau, and karmichel hunt.
Then buddy did the switchers at the last minute and on his 9 year deal the afl cracked it and said Swans must pay it all, even if he retires early.
The afl have the capacity to get players where they want them if they want them there at all.....remember how dusty was signed sealed and delivered at gws but then it somehow fell through and nobody knows why.....afl stepped in.

I just read the Crows, Pies, and Bulldogs have confirmed they will not be pursuing Tayla. That phrase "the latest clubs" means others have already ruled themselves out. I wonder who.

All eyes will be on the out-of-contract Tayla Harris, with Adelaide, Collingwood and the Western Bulldogs the latest clubs to confirm to womens.afl they will not be pursuing the high-flying forward.
