Tigers coach believes results will come

RICHMOND is one of only two AFLW teams yet to break through for a win in season 2025, with the Tigers and GWS Giants stranded on 0-4. Richmond has a better percentage and therefore sits 17th, with coach Ryan Ferguson of the opinion the players are potentially “overdoing” it in order to get results sooner. […]

Suns rise to first 2025 AFLW win

IT HAS been a tough couple of seasons for Gold Coast in the AFL Women’s. After finishing 17th in season 2024 and replacing coach Cam Joyce with Rhyce Shaw, the Suns have suffered an extensive injury list over the preseason and even in the last few weeks. Despite suffering some tough losses, Shaw’s side finally […]

PREVIEW | 2025 AFLW: Round 4 – Sunday

COLLINGWOOD faces the ultimate AFL Women’s test, up against the benchmark North Melbourne team fresh off a record score and win against the Dockers. The Magpies were very good in defeat to Melbourne in Round 3, but the Round 4 opponent is another level up, so it will be fascinating to see how the black […]

PREVIEW | 2025 AFLW: Round 4 – Saturday

A MUST-WIN clash between the two bottom AFL Women’s sides takes place tomorrow with the Gold Coast Suns hosting GWS Giants at People First Stadium. The Suns are reeling off a big loss to Port Adelaide where they lost three key players to injury and are the walking wounded. GWS has come close at different […]

Lions “rattled” by Blues’ second quarter burst

IT IS a term that is not often associated with the powerhouse that is the Brisbane Lions, but AFLW coach Craig Starcevich described his team as “rattled” after conceding five goals to one in the second term of its Round 3 loss to Carlton. The Lions went on to fight back to within striking distance […]

Blues gain bang for Buck in Brisbane

CARLTON produced the upset of the AFL Women’s season last Sunday when it toppled Brisbane at Brighton Homes Arena to move to 2-1 for the year. The Blues piled on five goals to one in a stunning second term which was enough to see them get home, 9.4 (58) to 6.8 (44). Blues coach Matthew […]

2025 CTLG Player Focus: Abby Hobson (Gippsland Power)

GIPPSLAND Power might have gone down in their Coates Talent League Girls quarter finals clash to Murray Bushrangers, but it did not stop marking machine Abby Hobson having a huge day out for the Power at Shepley Oval. The talented top-ager booted three goals – including back-to-back majors in the premiership quarter – and clunked […]

No “crisis” at Dockers, Suns despite record defeats

WALYALUP AFL Women’s coach Lisa Webb refuted claims her side was at a “crisis moment” when asked post-match following the Dockers’ 100-point defeat at the hands of North Melbourne. The record-breaking loss – and highest score conceded – followed on from Fremantle’s 78-point shellacking at the hands of Brisbane a week earlier. Despite it meaning […]

Swans to “throw at the stumps” for deep finals run

SYDNEY might be unbeaten and one of only four teams in the AFL Women’s that has started the season in the same fashion, but coach Scott Gowans was candid when asked about where he felt the side was at. Post-game following the Round 3 win over Geelong, Sydney had risen to top of the ladder […]

Stinear relieved to “get away with one”

FEW WOULD have predicted that last year’s wooden spooners Collingwood had the ability to push an in-form offensive juggernaut like Narrm (Melbourne) when they faced off over the weekend, but by the end of the match, AFLW Dees coach Mick Stinear conceded the Pies “deserved to win”. Narrm entered the Round 3 match having smashed […]
