Frankie joins a select group of just 48 girls from around the country invited to participate in a high-performance camp and Futures match, taking place September 12-14 at IKON Park. From her early days wearing the Greyhounds colors to training with dedication, skill and heart, Frankie has been a shining example of what our club stands for.

This national selection is a direct result of her hard work, sportsmanship and passion for the game – qualities that our community knows so well. Born in 2008, Frankie is now eligible for the 2026 Telstra AFLW Draft, making this an incredibly exciting step in her football journey.
