Erin Phillips says she was shocked to be named co-captain of the Adelaide Crows women’s team.
The team voted on the captaincy following a group leadership session at a players camp in Darwin.
“It was just unbelievable,” Erin told the FIVEAA sports show. “It didn’t really sink in for a good 24 hours — I couldn’t believe it. Just absolutely honoured.”
