Richmond have made their first AFLW signing a big one, with former Western Bulldogs captain Katie Brennan joining the club on a two-year deal.
The 26-year-old is one of the league's best players, and was a marquee signing for the first AFLW season.
โIn Katie we see a wonderful person and a talented footballer who sets elite training standards,โ Richmond Head of Womenโs Football, Kate Sheahan told richmondfc.com.au.
โWe view Katie as one of the best players in the AFLW competition, and weโre excited by her talent, skill and drive to succeed.
โWe have done a lot of work through our VFLW program to build a culture that players want to be a part of, and it is fantastic to now add some experience to our ranks.
โWe will continue to look at all opportunities to build a strong AFLW list and are incredibly excited about the next couple of weeks.โ
Brennan will also play for Richmond in the VFLW.
