AFL Queensland is pleased to announce the team for Round 2 of the 2019 Bond University Under 18 AFL Women’s National Championships.
AFL Queensland will host the second round of the national championships on the Gold Coast, with players from Victoria, Western Australia, New South Wales, Tasmania, South Australia and the Northern Territory travelling to compete in matches at Metricon Stadium, Southport and Bond University.
Queensland’s team of 24 will come up against Victoria Country, Victoria Metro and the Eastern Allies over the five day round.
Daisy D’Arcy, Allanah Phineasa, Zimmorlei Farquharson and Georgia Eller have been brought into the team, ensuring 26 of the initial 36-player squad will have played over the championships.
Queensland Coach James Gellie said the opportunity to round out the national carnival in a familiar setting such as the Gold Coast would provide a definitive boost to the team.
“It’s probably a bit more of the norm for the girls to play in their home state so we’re really looking forward to that challenge,” Gellie said.
“We just need to concentrate on what we need to do on field and hopefully the home ground advantage will help us.”
