Ladies football sensation Emma Duggan won't be joining the AFLW this year and insists the recent giant pay hike for Australian players won't influence any potential future decision.

Duggan's Dunboyne and Meath colleague Vikki Wall, along with Cork's Erika O'Shea, are reportedly set to join North Melbourne for the new AFLW season which begins in August.
