Fremantle’s AFLW leaders have made a powerful statement in unanimously committing to the club at the start of the sign and trade period.

The entire 2019 leadership group have re-signed at the earliest opportunity in a huge boost for the Dockers as West Coast try to lure away up to eight players ahead of their entry into the competition next season.

The West Australian understands Gun pair Dana Hooker and Kellie Gibson are among those still weighing up their futures amid offers from the Eagles.

But captain Kara Donnellan declared the group were focused on team success after storming into a preliminary final in their first season under coach Trent Cooper this year.

The club’s best and fairest winners of the last two seasons, Kiara Bowers and Ebony Antonio, as well as defender Evie Gooch and forward Gabby O’Sullivan have also been locked away.

“I want to be a one-club player,” Donnellan said.

“To have all of our leaders commit, I suppose it shows where the group is going. To make a real statement on day one I think is pretty powerful to the rest of the competition that we’re in pretty good hands and we’re all ready to go for next season.

“Success is at the top of our radar. Money is one thing but I think success is way more important for us at Freo. We fell one short this season and we are determined and driven as ever to, I suppose, take that next step next year. This is the start of it and we’ll see where we go.

“Money is not really a factor for me. At the end of the day, I want success. Whatever that looks like and whatever I can do to make that happen, on-field and off-field, I’m willing to do it.

“Adelaide are very similar, they want to keep their group together because once you start something pretty special you want to keep going. Girls are here because they want success, not big dollar contracts.”

Donnellan said she still had a week left rehabbing a quad injury that kept her out of the preliminary final loss to Carlton.

The 27-year-old said she wouldn’t need surgery on a knee problem she carried for much of the season.
