She retired from the professional Australian Football League Women's competition after the 2017 season because of a shoulder injury before returning to work as an army medic. "We can prevent CTE by preventing repeated impacts to the head, and we must begin a dialogue with leaders in women's sports today so we can save future generations of female athletes from suffering."
