FREMANTLE'S SELECTIONS



Roxanne Roux

Selected at: no.12

Age: 17

Position: Forward / ruck

Drafted from: East Fremantle

Occupation: Student

Cooper’s comments: Roxy was named 2019 All Australian in the U18s. She performed strongly for East Fremantle, starring in their WAFLW Premiership win. Roxy is an exciting forward prospect who is quick off the mark and has a very strong overhead grab. She possesses an excellent vertical leap that also allows her to pinch hit in the ruck. She was the second leading goal scorer in the WAFLW in 2019.

Mim Strom

Selected at: no.21

Age: 17

Position: Ruck

Drafted from: South Fremantle / Swan Districts

Occupation: Student

Cooper’s comments: Mim started the season for South Fremantle in the Rogers Cup (U18s) before getting a permit to play league football for Swan Districts. Mim flourished in the second half of the season leading the ruck for Swan Districts and also for WA in the U18s carnival, where she was named All Australian. She taps the ball well and is excellent below her knees. Mim possesses a huge amount of upside and has the desire to continue to improve.

Ann McMahon

Selected at: no.35

Age: 25

Position: Midfielder / forward

Drafted from: East Fremantle

Occupation: Police officer

Cooper’s comments: Ann suffered an ACL injury in the early part of the 2018 season and returned midway through the 2019 WAFLW season, picking up immediately where she left off. She made a smooth transition to East Fremantle having previously played at West Perth. Ann was an important player in the Sharks’ premiership winning team with her ability to play a variety of roles through the midfield and also forward. She is hard at the ball and possesses good skills and decision making

Emma O’Driscoll

Selected at: no.51

Age: 19

Position: Key defender

Drafted from: Swan Districts

Occupation: Student

Cooper’s comments: Emma had her season ruined by a broken finger which resulted in her missing the U18 carnival after being very close to being drafted in 2018. She is a key defender with explosive pace who plays an extremely team-oriented brand of football.

Sarah Garstone

Age: 19

Position: Key defender

Selected at: no.81

Age: 29

Position: Key defender

Drafted from: Perth

Occupation: Sport Development Manager – Netball WA

She spent five years in the US attending college and playing tennis before returning to Perth. Janelle had an injury interrupted first season playing for Perth in the WAFLW reserves competition but has huge upside with her athleticism and size being valuable assets.
