AFLW 2022.2 - First practice match - Dees vs Blues - curtainraiser.

[DJC]

I was looking through an article about leadership groups this year. A few teams haven't announced theirs yet (Inc. Pies, dons and us) it made for some depressing reading.

- Tilly lucas-rodd is hawks inaugural captain.
- Sarah Hosking is vice captain at the tigers
- Kate shierlaw and Bianca Jacobson are vice captains at the saints, with Nic Stevens the 4th member of the leadership group. Rhi watt was co-captain at one point, but she left.

- Pies had co captains last year with Bri Davey (and former csc girl herself, Steph chiocci)
- bombers look to at least have prespakis in the leadership group as she is the face of the club from a marketing perspective thus far. Probably captain. Potentially Gee in the leadership group as well.

All former Carlton girls.
Ouch.

Hawthorn would have to be scraping the bottom of the barrel; Tilly couldn't command a regular game with us, let alone a leadership role.

I'm not sure whether other teams having former Carlton players in their leadership groups is a bad thing, particularly when many of those players clearly weren't natural leaders when they were at our club.
