The following players I have listed as INACTIVE for 2020 and won't be eligible to be drafted in either the keeper league or draft league TS comps in 2020 Hannah Martin ADELAIDE Chelsea Randall ADELAIDE Maisie Nankivell ADELAIDE Ruth Wallace ADELAIDE (also inactive in 2019) Ann McMahon FREMANTLE (1st year) Bianca Jakobsson MELBOURNE Katherine Smith MELBOURNE Shae Sloane MELBOURNE Jess Duffin NORTH MELBOURNE Aisling Utri WESTERN BULLDOGS Rosie Deegan WEST COAST (1st year) Alicia Janz WEST COAST Are there any others I have missed ??
https://www.westcoasteagles.com.au/news/556138/aflw-gilmore-elevated-to-west-coast-squad We will add this player to the TS AFLW database, however they will not be available in the keeper league pre-season draft as this was announced after it was commenced. They will be eligible to be picked up pre AFLW Round 1 in the supplementary draft. Positional eligibility will be determined and they will be available for the annual draft league before it kicks off. - edit - it seems fairly clear that she is a Key Forward so Fwd only it is.
What is the reasoning for these players being unavailable to draft in the keeper league? I think it’s too late to change it now anyway, but I wish we’d discussed it pre-draft because I feel it would’ve been better for them to be available to draft.
It makes next years drafter deeper, and we can better gauge the inactive players list impact. It is a one-off for our first year.
https://womens.afl/news/42084/freo-facing-ruck-crisis-after-tighe-s-acl-blow Tighe is therefore removed from the 2020 ORFFW draft pool as an INACTIVE player for 2020
