Jaimee Lambert and Ruby Schleicher have been selected in the AFLW All-Australian squad of 40.

Schleicher has been a pillar in defence for Collingwood this season, averaging 18 disposals, five marks, five contested possessions and three tackles a game.

Her sublime form in 2021 earned the 24-year-old her first All-Australian blazer and the attacking defender has been equally impactful in 2022.

Lambert consistently dominated through the middle, starring most notably in round eight when she kicked three goals to cement our win over the Bulldogs.

She averaged 20 disposals, 10 contested possessions, six tackles and three marks a game this season - elite numbers.

Lambert previously earned All-Australian honours in 2020.
