Carlton’s forward line will be in safe hands, with Darcy Vescio joining the Blues women’s team as a marquee player.

The 22-year-old full forward currently plays with the Darebin Falcons, which is touted as the most successful women’s team in Australia.

Vescio, who started playing footy when she was five, is a three-time premiership player with the Falcons and has represented the Victorian state team on two occasions.

After being selected with pick three in the 2014 draft, Vescio has played for the Western Bulldogs for the last two years.

She is known for her clean hands and regularly puts herself in dangerous positions, making her a handful for opposition defenders.

Vescio works at Carlton three days a week as a graphic designer, and is fittingly working on the design for the inaugural women’s guernsey.

Apparently Cane Kornes has tweeted she wants a clearance to Fremantle.

As Darcy was responsible for designing the club's women's guernsey, she has to held at least partly accountable for the inclusion of the light blue strips on said guernsey.

Why the Club would allow this to go through, beats me.

I think this is a really important issue.

Only for those interested/concerned about what colour(s) the club's guernsey incorporates.

Apparently the light blue stripes were made from wild bovine.

No. That'd be the light blue tripes.

hree teams had two representatives. Collingwood had Emma King and Nicola Stevens, Carlton had Darcy Vescio and Brianna Davey while the Western Bulldogs had Ellie Blackburn and Emma Kearney.

Melbourne skipper Pearce was named captain of the All Australian team, with Crows co-captain Phillips her deputy.

Vescio's brilliant grab versus the Western Bulldogs in round five saw her take out the Woolworths Mark of the Year with 36 per cent of fans' votes on AFL.com.au.

The Blues star cleaned up on the night after also taking home the prize for being the season's leading goalkicker, with 14.

Didn't finish as high in the B&F as I expected, given the season she had.

In my Uber driving I picked up Darcy after the Essendon* game earlier in the season. It was very surreal to pick up a new footy star. The trip was short, but she was very delightful. She loved the season and loved playing for the Blues. I am sure she will stay. I had two other players in the back as well, but have forgotten their names. One was a vice captain. I see we had two. They all had their Blues clothing on and had been barracking hard.

Great to see she’s staying for another 2 years.

Now needs to get herself a running coach this offseason to straighten herself up coz she looked like an 80yo granny out there at times.

Get the best out of yourself Darc ! :thumbsup:

Just asking...A woman isn't necessarily female, is that correct?


Otherwise the name of the comp (AFLW) will have to be changed, right?



Maybe this answers my own question:

Quote:
Some people identify as nonbinary and as a binary gender such as woman. They may see themselves as almost but not quite fitting into the category of womanhood, feel an association with being a woman or femininity, or not mind being seen as women. Depending on how the individual defines their identity, they may consider themself to be nonbinary women if they also consider themself to be partly female (demigirl), femme, a gender nonconforming queer masculine woman (butch), someone who only wants to be in the active role of sex without being touched (stone), androgynous, having a gender identity that often changes (genderfluid), having more than one gender (bigender), having a form of womanhood that is itself queer (genderqueer), or other kinds of identities.

That paragraph raises more questions than it answers, I'm afraid.
