Bodey was raised in Brisbane. She came to the sport much later than average after playing association football for much of her life for clubs including The Gap FC and aspired to play for the Matildas. First taking part in Australian rules in 2019, she played for Saints in Cairns while on placement as a physiotherapist and University of Queensland in the AFL Queensland Women's League before being selected by Brisbane as an other-sport rookie ahead of the 2020 AFLW season.[2]
Bodey made her AFLW debut in Brisbane's round 1 game against Adelaide at Hickey Park on 8 February 2020.[3] Playing in her second season for Hawthorn in 2024, Bodey kicked a career-high 6 goals in the Round 4 demolition of St. Kilda.
