VFL Women's team
Шаблон:Infobox AFL club season
2017 was the first season of women's Australian rules football contested by the Geelong Football Club, with the club competing in the second season of the VFL Women's competition, after failing to secure a licence to compete in the inaugural AFL Women's competition that began in 2017.
Background
The first season of the VFL Women's (VFLW) league was held in 2016, and consisted of ten teams from the now-defunct Victorian Women's Football League.
In October 2016, Geelong announced that they would be taking over the licence to operate a VFL Women's team, replacing the Geelong Magpies who had competed in the 2016 season.[3]
Season summary
Paul Hood was appointed the club's inaugural VFLW coach, having previously coached Geelong's VFL team in 2015. Rebecca Goring was appointed captain, with Maddie Boyd and Lily Mithen named as co-vice captains.[4] Mithen won the club's VFLW best and fairest award for the season.[5] The club would finish the season fifth on the ladder, not qualifying for the finals.
