Developing small defender Abbey McDonald showed she can be a valuable prospect the Cats following an impressive 2023 VFLW campaign. An attacking defender, McDonald showed plenty of encouraging signs across her first seven appearances in the Hoops at VFLW level.

Will be looking to break through for her first AFLW appearance in 2023.
