Early life and state-league football

edit

Burchell spent her formative years in Ocean Grove, a seaside town 23 kilometres outside Geelong.[1]

She played VFLW football with Geelong in 2017 and 2018.[1]

AFL Women's career

edit

Burchell was signed by Geelong as a pre-listed free agent in August 2018.[1]

She made her AFLW debut during round 7 of the 2019 season in a match against Greater Western Sydney at UNSW Canberra Oval.[2] She was omitted from the Geelong side that played in a losing preliminary final the following week.[3] At season's end she was delisted by Geelong, having played just one AFLW match.[4] Burchell joined expansion club Richmond as delisted free agent later that month.[5]

In December 2022, Burchell was delisted by Richmond after spending 2022 season 7 on the injury list.[6]
