AFLW silly season - trade period starts 7/12/23

Former Carlton players Maddi Gay and Charlotte Wilson are both looking to get out of the demons as well.

Jess Hosking has been given the flick by the tigers. We could do worse with targetting her back, but dont think shes on our radar.

Thankfully Abbie McKay has signed up for another few years today.

Charlotte Wilson was pretty good for Melbourne this season; she had finally returned to something of the form she showed with us early in her career. I think Melbourne will miss her.
Melbourne, after years of keeping the list more or less intact, is suffering hugely, with a lot of players looking to play elsewhere. Money? Possibly. Maybe they think Melbourne has peaked and is on a downwards trend?

I am disappointed to see Mua go, but her form this year was ... ordinary, to say the least.

I don't quite see the need for Celine Moody, who has never reached the heights her sister has. We have quite a good second ruck in Jess Good. However, it does give us some marking power.

I understand the need to improve our list, but what are we going to lose to get these potential ins?
