Saraid spent time last year on Richmond's rookie list, and has been playing for Port Melbourne this year in the VFLW.  As well as football, she is a talented basketballer, as well as being a scriptwriter/author after graduating from VCA's film school, and also a model.  She's also very active in social justice issues.

A really needed selection after Maggie Caris left, even though she is only 183cm compared to Caris at 190.

 If Lauren Pearce goes down, we struggle to find another tall, and have to use Tayla to fill the gap. 

 

"Saraid" - Irish origin and means excellent.

...though susceptible to Crows or Power poaching forays?

(Seriously, though, looks a player, and her interview on the club's website is engaging)
