Maddie Kennedy GA.
Reliable and explosive in the goal ring. Predominantly plays GA and works the front space perfectly, making the defenders pay if they double on the GS.
Chloe Wheaton GD/GS.
Versatile and can play both defence and shooting end. Gives height and can out rebound her opponent with her strength.
Eliana Martin GS/GA.
El has become a pivotal target in the goal ring. Her height is difficult for any team to match. Has shown huge improvement throughout the season.
Annalise Grinter C
Fantastic footwork. Great leader and experienced player in the defence end. Is able to read play beautifully, especially under pressure.
Emily McNamara
Great hands over pressure, often takes important clean intercepts. Is strong, calm and reliable throughout the midcourt.
Jackie Oswald WD
Fearless leader of the group. Versatile midcourter who provides talk all day, drive out of defence and amazing hands over pressure. Cool, calm and collected. A finals specialist!
Amy Barnes
A talented defender known for her impressive leap and go-go gadget arms! Very dynamic and always willing to give 110%.
Mylah Kennedy GA
An extremely accurate goaler with exceptional shooting range. Able to stay calm under pressure. This talented young gun is one to keep your eye on!
Georgie Hemphill
An explosive pocket rocket who provides great drive and defensive pressure up the court. Has the ability to read play and intercept cleanly.

Caity Whitelock WA.
The energiser bunny who does not tire. A WA specialist who feeds beautifully into the goal ring and creates drive up the midcourt.
Macey Hicks
Ring defender with great footspeed and ability to read the ball. Fantastic addition to the B line up and you know Mace will stay calm in pressure situations.
