Greater Western Sydney


O'Dea was drafted by Greater Western Sydney with pick 71.[2][9][10] At the end of the season she was delisted after not making an appearance for the club.[11][12] After her delisting she was selected for Greater Western Sydney's inaugural VFL Women's squad, together with five more recently delisted players, so as to strengthen their chances to be re-drafted.[13] This squad played only invitational games not counted for points or ladder position during teams' bye rounds.[14]
