All just in a Courtney Webb hectic new Sunday-to-Friday sporting schedule.

The Launceston Blues best-on-ground premiership hero ran out for her AFLW debut just days after rolling the arm over for Tasmanian Roar in a different state.

While it wasn’t a maiden appearance to remember, the 18-year-old was rapt to get the call up from Carlton coach Damien Keeping.

“It was very exciting obviously,” Webb said. “I didn’t really have much of an idea.

“I knew there had been a couple of injuries in the squad, which isn’t great.

“But I was excited to get an opportunity to run out.”

Webb had been drafted to the AFLW Blues as a rookie, but a top-six run in their 2km preseason time trial brought attention to her progress.

The club lodged the paperwork on Tuesday to promote Webb before making a first game a reality 24 hours later.

“Towards the end of training, the coach had a word and told me I was selected for the round,” she said.

​It was a good news story after her Launceston TSLW teammate Daria Bannister was ruled out for the Western Bulldogs’ season on debut.

Bannister ruptured her anterior cruciate ligament in the final term of the season opener at the Whitten Oval.

Webb 19 days on earned four kicks, one handball, one mark and put on four effective tackles at the same venue. But a heavy 73-point loss to the Western Bulldogs marred Webb’s efforts off the bench on Friday night.

She had flown straight back to Melbourne from Hobart after bowling six overs on Sunday against ACT, as Roar coach Julia Price looked for answers to break their winless state campaign.

Webb played down the difficulties of transferring her skills from one sport to another at the top end. 

“I have always played at least two, even three or four sports, my entire life, so as far switching between the two codes I am kind of used to that now,” she said. “But moving over to Carlton has been really great for my footy. 

“I’m obviously training a lot more, but still keeping up the cricket training with Melbourne Cricket Club – I’m training just as much as I would have back in Tassie.

“It’s been a lot more hands on with the footy, which has been great, but there is really good support staff to manage my [training] loads to make sure I am not overdoing it.”

Webb is enjoying the taste of the landmark women’s football competition after once being named a Hobart Hurricanes WBBL rookie.

But she has no intention to give up one sport to pursue the other on a full-time basis.

“I am definitely going to do both sports for as long as I possibly can,” Webb said.

“I have already been in the high-performance programs for cricket for the last four or five years, which has been fantastic, but it’s also been great to experience the elite level of a different sport.”
