Current official WBBL directory
Hobart Hurricanes Women WBBL|12 squad tracker
The official WBBL directory currently lists these 17 players and marks Elyse Villani as captain. It includes new-season names such as Suzie Bates and Chloe Tryon, but the club has not labelled the page a final WBBL|12 squad, so this is a current tracker rather than a falsely finalised roster.
