She's 22 while Arnell's 30 so she has the potential to be our captain for many years.
The thing is, we really don't know about the longevity of the women compared to the men.
I suspect many will play well into their thirties.
I suspect you're right about setting up Davey. There's a good article about our AFLW leadership in the Age today and one sentence that stood out was:
Quote:Arnell said she was rapt to move into the mentoring role while Davey and Hosking are in their early 20s.
I don't want to derail this thread but I wonder if Marc Murphy will take on a similar role.
