2023 AFLW Draft preview: Western Bulldogs
AFTER a season to forget which included collecting the wooden spoon, sacking coach Nathan Burke and having four best 21 players walk out the door, the Western Bulldogs are set to build from the ground up once again. The Dogs might still be searching for a coach, but picked up some experience this offseason with […]
2023 AFLW Draft preview: West Coast
AFTER another disappointing season, West Coast has entered the dawn of a new era with Daisy Pearce replacing Michael Prior as coach for the 2024 AFLW season. Having already made a move in her first week at the club recruiting ex-Tiger Jess Hosking, there is optimism out west for what the future holds with a […]
2023 AFLW Draft preview: Sydney
IT WAS almost a dream year from Sydney who went from winless debutants in Season 7, to finalists in Season 8. The Swans forced their way into a semi-final, and while ultimately they did not quite have the class to knock off the more experienced Adelaide, showed the building blocks are there for the future. […]
2023 AFLW Draft preview: St Kilda
ST KILDA had a season of two halves, starting slowly before a remarkable come-from-behind victory over Collingwood sparked a late season revival. It was not enough to get the Saints into finals, but they came close, and given they had one of the quietest Trade Period’s showed that they are happy with building on their […]

2023 AFLW Draft preview: Port Adelaide
PORT Adelaide’s season did not quite go to plan with the Power finishing 15th, picking up two wins and a draw throughout the 2023 AFL Women’s season. That disappointment was off-set by the arrival of the two best players in the draft, and another top 10 talent along with rising young gun Matilda Scholz who […]
2023 AFLW Draft preview: North Melbourne
GRAND finalists North Melbourne came agonisingly close to an inaugural AFL Women’s flag, and remain a contender in 2024. Bringing in a strong readymade defender, the Roos are set to go again, having moved on five players to open up a further four list spots at the club heading into the AFLW Draft. OFF-SEASON CHANGES […]
2023 AFLW Draft preview: Melbourne
SEASON 7 premiers Melbourne went back to the AFLW Draft well again, clearing out a quarter of its list – by either choice or request – to position itself high up in the draft. Boasting two picks inside the first 12 and three inside the top 23, the Demons can collect a trio of talented […]
2023 AFLW Draft preview: Hawthorn
SECOND-YEAR club Hawthorn showed marked improvement throughout the 2023 season, and though the Hawks did end up finishing 14th with three wins, were able to take advantage of the club’s ties with Eastern Ranges. Hawthorn picked up three talented top-agers – including one of the best Victorian prospects – in an otherwise relatively quiet off-season […]
