@catswomens drafted Apollo Bay's Gabbi Featherstone at pick nine of this week's AFLW draft, where she will link up with former @colacimperialsfnc teammate and last year's first-round draftee Darcy Moloney.

Gabbi told the Herald about her shock at being a top-10 selection, while family members spoke about her following in the footsteps or her late dad and local football legend Peter and her former coach likened his celebration to that of Ariarne Titmus' swimming coach.
