I had the chance recently to speak with Adelaide based footballers Katelyn Rosenzweig and Nikki Gore after their AFLW draft combine experiences, and ahead of the AFLW Draft on October 23. Both girls had full on years, including the National Under 18 competition representing South Australia and the Central Allies, a full season of the SANFL Womens competition, and short stints for both in the VFLW with the NT Thunder, and of course while still completing their year 12 studies.

Katelyn Rosenzweig played for North Adelaide in the SANFLW comepetition this year, and led the goalkicking for the season.

Nikki Gore played for South Adelaide in the SANFLW competition, where they won the premiership in their first season, and she also took out the club best & fairest award.
