There's no shortage of talent in the AFLW competition, but there's also no shortage of personality either.

As we head into AFLW season 2024, AFL.com.au posed some curly questions to a handful of the competition's best players.

Next up is Irish-born forward Aine McDonagh, who has become a key part of Hawthorn's team.

From her opinion on chicken parmigiana to her biggest fear, some of the answers did surprise us.

But there's more to Aine than her footy ability.
