Whitney Souness
I’ve been a fan of AFL Giants maintaining their connection with Australian netball and not quitting like Collingwood. But I was completely confused by the naming of Whitney Souness as Captain. A player brand new to the club. And its not like they don’t have players who had been there longer and could have stepped up, like Amy Sligar or Sophie Dwyer.
Now Souness has left Giants (I’m gonna keep calling them that til their new name is announced, which is hopefully today) and I’m really curious if anyone knows why she was given the Captaincy? I’m not hating on her, I just dont get why someone who wouldn’t have any connection to the rest of the players was given the main leadership role? Is it simply that it was extra enticement to get her to join the club? 😕
