The team is in.

Essendon's AFLW lineup has been confirmed for round one, where they'll face reigning Grand Finalists Brisbane in a massive clash at Windy Hill.

Debutants Maggie Johnstone and Nalu Brothwell are set to don the sash on Sunday, and former Crow Zoe Prowse will line up in defence for the first time as a Don.

Bonnie Toogood leads the line up forward in her 75th AFLW game and her first as sole skipper of the Club.

Get down to Windy Hill from 12:35pm AEST on Sunday as the red and black open their campaign.
