The GIANTS’ AFL Women’s team received a welcome visitor at training on Monday night with AFLW Head of Football Nicole Livingstone visiting the club for the first time in her new role.

The former Olympic swimmer was appointed the AFLW Head of Football in November 2017 and used her visit to talk to the GIANTS’ playing group and staff, and fielded some questions.

Following a historic inaugural season last year, Livingstone told the GIANTS they had inspired a new generation of footballers and asked them to do the same again in 2018.

Livingstone’s visit was a boost to the playing squad ahead of their practice match with Brisbane on Saturday, January 20, while the GIANTS’ round one clash with Melbourne at Casey Fields is just 25 days away.
