would we want any of the current Nix women to front up for an AFC XI, surely that's giving AFC the chance to poach them?
That would be churlish. Why would you stop some of Esson, van der Meer, Pijnenburg, Jale, Main, Barry, Fraser, Vlok or whoever playing against a big European club.

Who knows they may have a standout game, and get signed by Chelsea! Then a fee for the Nix (if they are under contract).

AFC women won't exist until season 2027/2028.
Vlok will be overseas by then. Likely also Barry (who reportedly had an overseas offer on the table prior this season).
I would imagine there could be (unless is clashes with something the Nix put on) and hopefully adequate insurance (if applicable) in case of any injuries. It wouldn't surprise me if the women's team isn't afc branded as well.
