Exciting Saints duo Caitlin Greiser and Georgia Patrikios have been named in the 2020 AFLW All Australian squad.
The pair were given the nod to the select 40-woman squad after remarkable debut seasons in St Kilda's first year of AFLW competition.
Greiser quickly turned into Moorabbin's newest hero after her match-winning major against Melbourne, before going on to top the league's goalkicking during the home-and-away season.

Further up the field, the electric Patrikios lived up to the hype.
The Saints' top draft pick dazzled at every turn, piecing together eye-catching displays through the midfield, complete with her silky ball-use and lethal sidestep.
Both are well in the running to take out the NAB Rising Star award alongside Olivia Vesely, and were last week picked in the inaugural 22Under22 squad.

2020 isn't the first year of accolades for the dynamic duo, with Greiser selected in the 2019 VFLW Team of the Year and Patrikios crowned the MVP of the NAB AFLW Under-18 Championships back in July.
Greiser and Patrikios make up two of the three first-year players picked in this year's All Australian squad.
The 21-woman All Australian side will be announced at the 2020 W Awards at a date yet to be confirmed.
