Pleased to share the first of four parts of my new #AFLW analysis series ahead of the 10th season. Taking a look at how each line has strategically evolved since that first year, starting today with the forward line ✨ afl.com.au/aflw/news/1321…
The 2025 #AFLW season begins in 18 days. Most goals kicked in AFLW finals history: 18 - DAKOTA DAVIDSON, DANIELLE PONTER 11 - Tahlia Randall 10 - Gemma Houghton, Eloise Jones, Alice O’Loughlin
Matt Johnson, that is brilliant! 🎥: Watch tonight's Smithy's VFL match live and free on 7mate and 7plus
Grace Brooker’s rugby skills coming into play. Just broke the tackle of three Pies in tight to set up Chloe Adams’ equaliser. #AFLW
Kalinda Howarth proving to be a handy addition to the Pies’ forward line- very dangerous on the deck I50 #AFLW
Schleicher being helped from the field after a knock to the back. Looks very sore #AFLW
Ruby Schleicher a class above so far. Dominant out of the middle. #AFLW
Sabrina Frederick starting in the goal square for Collingwood, Imogen Barnett in the ruck #AFLW
No Sophie Van De Heuvel, Brooke Walker, or Brooke Brown for Essendon #AFLW
No Ash Centra out there for Collingwood’s match sim against Essendon this morning. Kalinda Howarth, Georgia Knight, Airlie Runnalls, Kellyann Hogan all warming up to play their first hitout in the black and white. #AFLW
The 2025 #AFLW season begins in 19 days. Biggest cumulative positive margin in AFLW finals: +194 - CHELSEA RANDALL +188 - Sarah Allan, Anne Hatchard, Ebony Marinoff, Stevie-Lee Thompson +182 - Danielle Ponter +156 - Eloise Jones +144 - Erin Phillips
Emma McDonald tearing it up for the Bulldogs in tonight's match sim you say? #AFLW
Half time at Ikon Park, Richmond leading 4.5 (29) to Carlton's 3.1 (19). Erone Fitzpatrick fit and firing has been a standout, while Richmond's transition footy is exciting. #AFLW
Getting ready to call today’s #AFLW match sim between Carlton and Richmond from 5pm. Will be 4x flat 20min quarters, and you can watch via the club websites ✌🏼
Indy Tahau will play in Port Adelaide's match sim this weekend nearly two years since rupturing her ACL. #AFLW
The 2025 #AFLW season begins in 20 days. Zarlie Goldsworthy was selected with pick No.20 in the 2022 AFLW draft. Her first career goal was GWS’ 200th AFLW goal. Since joining the club for 2022 S7, Goldsworthy has kicked 21.5 per cent of the club’s goals.
Sophie Conway has revealed she was harbouring a significant injury during the 2024 finals series. afl.com.au/aflw/news/1372…
