The Behind the Game Changers podcast returns for a massive Season Two, with Darcy Vescio and Elise O'Dea headlining the first duo of hosts.

Kicking off at 12pm at Ikon Park, the game will give a number of new Blues the opportunity to get a taste of footy at the highest level with new Blues Winnie Laing, Daisy Walker and Mimi Hill named in the squad.

Excitement will also be high among the likes of Elise O’Dea, Maddy Guerin and Charlotte Hammans who will pull on the Navy Blue for the first time after arriving at Ikon Park during the trade period.
