Hard to believe you even contemplated taking the captaincy off her, let alone actually following through with the thought, given your team name.

THE WESTERN Bulldogs and West Coast will play two games in five days as the AFL seeks to condense the NAB AFLW fixture in response to the Western Australia border changes.
Collingwood and Fremantle will play in a twilight match this Thursday at Victoria Park, with GWS and the Bulldogs' clash switched from Sunday to Friday twilight.
The Dogs will then back up against Fremantle at VU Whitten Oval on Tuesday night – in a game shifted from round 10 – while the Pies will take on the Eagles in a twilight affair at Victoria Park on the same day (shifted from round six).
The W Show: Why star Dog was 'distressed', condensed fixture coming

Bonnie Toogood joins Nat Edwards and Sarah Black to dissect round three of the NAB AFLW competition
Suitable broadcast lighting at night is an issue at Victoria Park, hence the twilight slots.
The WA state government last week announced it would not open its borders on February 5 as first planned due to COVID-19 outbreaks around the country.
>> CHECK OUT THE UPDATED FIXTURE BELOW
Both Fremantle and West Coast had previously agreed to temporarily shift to Victoria for a three-week stint, and given players' and coaches' external work and family commitments, the AFL is keen to stick to that schedule.
The Western Bulldogs have two games to make up after a COVID-19 outbreak hit the club, rendering player numbers so low a team could not be fielded.

Collingwood v Fremantle at Victoria Park, 5.40pm AEDT

I think some options could be
- ignore the additional games
- add the additional games to round 4
- add the additional games to round 5
- split rounds 4 and 5 into 3 weeks something like 5+6+5 or 5+5+6 depending on what the week 5 fixture looks like which is only speculation and very tricky to guess
Because of average scores being used in previous rounds it makes DGW scores very tricky, if they do go with DGW scores letting teams get the HIGHER of 2 scores may be fairer than letting teams get BOTH scores.

I think this isn't a bad outcome in the end. Averages to be applied to the game week they have the "bye" I think this suggests.
Originally scheduled:
Collingwood vs West Coast - Round 6
Fremantle vs Bulldogs - round 10
