Seems to be a trend in the AFLW: borderline players leave for greener pastures, often before they've had a chance to develop.
No matter what the assertions are, AFLW is very different from AFL. Some aspects of AFLW still seem very semi-professional, which always exposes itself as a chicken and egg debate when you talk dollar$ and contracts.
If AFL was like AFLW, we'd have the McKay twins in house with the Hollands, Fisher and Cripps would be a package deal, Setterfield would still be at Carlton.
