Dual Crows AFLW premiership player Courtney Cramey has joined the All Australian selection panel for the 2021 NAB AFL Women's Competition.
Cramey and Geelong retiree Melissa Hickey both accepted invitations to join the AFLW panel, after being high-performing senior players in the opening four years of the NAB AFL Women's Competition.
Hickey and Cramey were both members of the All Australian side in 2017 before retiring at the end of the 2020 AFLW season.
Meanwhile, Jude Bolton and Nick Riewoldt have each accepted invitations to join the AFL panel, with both having had outstanding careers at the elite level.
AFL Executive General Manager Football Operations Steve Hocking said he looked forward to welcoming the selectors at the next meeting for each respective group and thanked Luke Darcy for his contribution on the panel.
"We look forward to Courtney, Jude, Melissa and Nick's unique insights and perspectives on the game as members of the AFL and AFLW All Australian selection panels, respectively," Mr Hocking said.
"Each player has enjoyed a decorated career in their own right and their success as players has them well-placed as selectors of men's and women's All Australian teams for years to come."
AFLW All Australian Selection Panel: Nicole Livingstone (chair), Sarah Black, Courtney Cramey, Tim Harrington, Melissa Hickey, Steve Hocking, Sharelle McMahon, Kelli Underwood, Josh Vanderloo, Shelley Ware.
