Saints continue rise up AFLW ladder
SINCE slipping to 1-3 after month one of the 2025 AFLW season, St Kilda has racked up four consecutive victories to move to 5-3 after month two. Though Saints coach Nick Dal Santo conceded the 4.6 (3) to 2.4 (16) win over the Giants was “not the best spectacle”, he said it was a “great […]
Dees “do enough” but Stinear concedes work to be done
MELBOURNE is churning out wins and continuing to arguably be the biggest threat to the North Melbourne juggernaut, but coach Mick Stinear is still searching for more improvement from his side. The latest win was a 14-point victory over Essendon, winning 5.6 (36) to 3.4 (22) at Ikon Park on Friday night. Stinear said he […]
Dockers’ déjà vu in “disappointing” loss
FREMANTLE coach Lisa Webb was once more left ruing some key missed opportunities after her side’s spirited loss to Hawthorn down in Frankston. It marked back-to-back defeats during the Dockers’ 10-game homestay in Victoria, with the mentor drawing comparisons between last week’s defeat to Carlton, and the 5.3 (33) to 2.6 (18) result last night. […]
Forward thinking for draft bolter Neyland
COMING off an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury last year, few would have predicted just how much of an impact Sydney Swans Academy member Alex Neyland could have made in her top-age season. The Cardiff Hawks tall expected to play in defence like she did prior to her knee injury, but instead was thrown forward, […]
Hawks tough it out in “resilient” win over Dockers
INCREDIBLY blustery conditions in Frankston are nothing new to Hawthorn coach Daniel Webster and his side, and they drew on that experience when the brown and gold overcame a determined Fremantle by 15 points last night. The victory made it three on the trot and moved the top four Hawks to 7-1 on the season […]

Swans “not intimidated” by facing red-hot Roos
USUALLY the last side you want to face when needing to find form again is North Melbourne, but Sydney Swans coach Scott Gowans is “excited” by the prospect of taking on the 21-game unbeaten ladder leaders. The two sides face off at UTAS Stadium on Saturday, with the Swans sitting sixth despite losing their past […]
Dockers determined to make more of their “moments”
FREMANTLE will head back to its roots in a bid to bounce back from another AFLW loss, this time to Carlton at Ikon Park. In the first of a two-game roadtrip in Victoria, the Dockers had their chances but failed to capitalise, while the Blues went on to do just that and win by nine […]
