Not a 1:1 replacement for Maddison Gay... but she seems useful. Welcome aboard Amelia.
Looking at the stats between the two clubs to see how Barden stacks up against Gay; Collingwood are in trouble.
These two lists are sorted by top scorers for each club.

Collingwood are hitting the draft heavily this year... the same year two victorian teams are joining and have higher picks than the Pies. I wonder who'll be scoring goals for them next season.
Carlton have lost 3 in the top 10 scorers: Lauren Arnell (Lions), Maddison Gay (Dees) and Kate Shierlaw (delisted)
