Wallis Randell’s journey from a cane farm in Carmila to the AFLW will add its next – and greatest – chapter when she makes her Gold Coast Suns debut against West Coast on Sunday.
Randell, 19, has been named to play for the first time since she was taken with Pick No. 61 in the 2020 AFLW Draft, and will become the third Mackay product after Lauren Bella and Emma Pittman to play for the Suns.
Like many in the AFLW, Randell’s sporting background is not founded in Aussie rules.
Before she was lacing up for Magpies in the AFL Mackay competition, Randell was a member of the Mackay Meteorettes’ Queensland Basketball League side.

Subscriber only A judge has dealt a long-term Mackay drug user a sobering message - you will either clean up, die or spend the rest of your life in jail. Nathan John Melody, who has a 20-year drug history, tried to sell ice and cocaine to a number of people - although he told police the drug messages were about bike parts, chocolate and Coca Cola. He also tried to convince police a set of nunchucks found in his possession were wind chimes. Crown Prosecutor Tiffany Lawrence said police raided the man s Bakers Creek home on May 27 last year and found drugs including ice and marijuana, as well as a taser, the nunchucks and used drug utensils.
 The remains of the truck that veered off the Bakers Creek bridge south of Mackay. Picture: Fraser Lewis  I didn t see ⦠at that time, I didn t see anyone, I blacked out. But I want to thank those two guys. I heard two people at the scene screaming. Those men, Fraser Lewis and a backpacker named Thomas, pulled Charlie from the cabin inside which he was suspended by his seatbelt. They raced the incoming tide that threatened to swallow the truck that was partially submerged in the water after it veered off the Bruce Highway about 5.20am Sunday. Charlie was barely 3km from his destination - a depot next to the BP.
