​
Still at the peak of her powers in 2018, and after achieving over a decades worth of international accolades including 46 Diamonds caps, Sharni made the ultimate decision to move away from netball and pursue a career in the AFLW with the Collingwood Football Club.

A part of the Pies’ VFLW Premiership winning team in 2019, Sharni’s growth in the game of Australian Football was recognised, named the AFLW All Australian ruck in 2020.
