2019/20 AFLW off-season review: West Coast
WEST Coast might have the biggest question mark against itself for the 2020 AFL Women’s season. It is not a question of talent – the names on the Eagles’ list attest to that – but it is more a question of how the team will adapt to the structures in place and with one another […]
2019/20 AFLW off-season review: St Kilda
IN the next of our expansion club AFL Women’s off-season reviews, we take a look at St Kilda.

IN the first of our four AFL Women’s expansion clubs off-season reviews, we take a look at the Gold Coast SUNS, the second Queensland team to join the competition.

2019/20 AFLW off-season review: Adelaide
REIGNING premier Adelaide is a deserving favourite of chasing its third AFL Women’s flag in four years after keeping together an already impressive list, and adding a host of young and experienced stars to its roster. There were plenty of tears when two-time Most Valuable Player (MVP) Erin Phillips went down with an anterior cruciate […]
2019/20 AFLW off-season review: Carlton
CARLTON might have had the most talked about departure of the off-season, but as a whole, the Blues retained the majority of their list, whilst heading to the AFL Women’s Draft in a really strong position to pick up a heap of youth prospects for the future. The Blues lost captain Brianna Davey to Collingwood, […]
2019/20 AFLW off-season review: Fremantle
FREMANTLE was one of two non-Victorian clubs forced to share the state pool of players this year, with the introduction of West Coast Eagles to the AFL Women’s competition. In doing so, the Dockers lost nine players to their cross-state rivals, with Dana Hooker the most notable of the departures. Elsewhere, Maddy Collier headed to […]
2019/20 AFLW off-season review: Geelong
IN arguably the most stable club off-season in the entire AFL Women’s competition, Geelong was quiet on both on the recruiting and trading front. The Cats delisted six players from the inaugural 2019 list that took Geelong to the finals series, while Erin Hoare retired. They did not lose anyone to expansion or through trade, […]
2019/20 AFLW off-season review: North Melbourne
HAVING made a splash in its inaugural season, North Melbourne had a relatively quiet trade and draft period, retaining the majority of its list and heading to the draft just looking to top up with some readymade talent to go one better than in 2019 and make finals – hopefully pushing for a flag. The […]
2019 AFL Draft club review: West Coast Eagles
A PREMIERSHIP 12 months ago, another finals series and a huge inclusion over the off-season with Tim Kelly crossing from Geelong, West Coast was always going to be a quiet achiever in the AFL Draft period. The Eagles picked up two players – both West Australian as predicted by Draft Central prior to the draft […]
2019 AFL Draft club review: St Kilda Saints
AFTER a massive trade period, St Kilda was one of the quietest clubs in the AFL Draft, picking up just two players in the National Draft, and an additional player in the Rookie Draft. They had also met needs by bringing in the likes of Brad Hill, Dougal Howard, Paddy Ryder, Zak Jones and Dan […]
