THERE'S no shortage of talent in the AFLW competition, but there's also no shortage of personality either.
As we head into the finals for AFLW season 2024, AFL.com.au posed some curly questions to a handful of the competition's best players.
Next up is gun Port Adelaide forward Gemma Houghton, who is a two-time All-Australian and sits in the top five of the all-time leading goalscoring list.
From why she likes to travel solo to her biggest fear, some of the answers did surprise us.
But there's more to Gemma than her footy ability.
