Is there anything Brisbane Roar star Jenna McCormick can’t do?

The freakishly talented dual sportswoman has played in the Westfield W-League since 2012 and made her Australian rules football career debut in 2016 for Adelaide Crows.

And she has won silverware in each code: earning the Westfield W-League Premiership with Canberra United (2016/17) and the inaugural 2017 AFL Women’s Premiership with Adelaide.
