2024 Coates Talent League Girls: Round 17 & Wildcard wrap
THE final round of the Coates Talent League Girls season – and Wildcard Round for metropolitan teams – took place across the weekend with some nail-biters and breakthrough performances. Here is the recap from the six matches.
2024 AFLW Season Preview: Sydney
AFTER a debut season to forget, things turned right around for Sydney in 2023, winning four of its last five home and away matches to make the finals for the first time. The Swans then won that first final, but although things did not go to plan in week two in Adelaide, it was still […]

2024 AFLW Season Preview: St Kilda
IT truly was a case of so close, yet so far for St Kilda in 2023. The Saints got so close to making the finals for the first time, but were denied a spot in the finals by less than five percent. But heading into 2024, did they learn the right lessons from the heartbreak […]
2024 CTL Girls Players of the Week: Round 17 & Wildcard

The Bushrangers defeated Bendigo Pioneers by 17 points up at Queen Elizabeth Oval, ensuring they finished the season on a high. Hall […]
2024 AFLW Season Preview: Richmond
ON paper, 2023 did not exactly go to plan for Richmond. Long-term injuries to key players right through the year did not help the Tigers at all, who after the highs of a top four finish in 2022 did not even make finals in 2023. But with key players back and a good mix of […]
