AFLW trade/poaching period begins

[kruddler]

Damn! I rally rate Hardiman. She may not be that quick, but she is a great competitor and was an excellent defender for us in the last 2 years. Gillespie-Jones was also a very solid defender for us.
Nor will they be easy for us to replace.

Yep.

KGJ was one of the targetted KPF on the infamous whiteboard that got leaked. Turned into a defender. While good size, nothing to really write home about with footy smarts.
Hardiman on the other hand is probably not quite the size of KGJ, but has a better footy brain. Managed to get in the votes a few times last year.

Still, with Davey (hopefully) coming back, we will require one less of them in the team every week.

Better losing from an area we are abundant in rather than say, mids.
