2024 AFLW Season Preview: Fremantle
ON paper, 2023 was not much better than Season 7 for Fremantle, with those in purple recording only half a win more than they did in 2023 than they did the previous season. But, like seasons prior, injuries were again a big issue for Fremantle, with most of their biggest names missing at least one […]
PREVIEW | 2024 WAFLW Round 2: Sunday
THREE matches complete Round 2 of the WAFL Women’s on Sunday with a Perth Derby and a couple of other fascinating contests. We preview all three games in action.
2024 WAFLW Team of the Week: Round 1
SUBIACO dominated this week’s Rookie Me Central WAFL Women’s Team of the Week following its 95-point belting of East Perth. The Royals were the only side without a representative, as South Fremantle (four players) and Peel Thunder (two) were the slight differences with the remaining four teams recording three players apiece. It is no surprise […]
2024 WAFLW R1 wrap: Sharks rip victory from Dogs’ jaws

Though the Dockers managed to stabilise as the season went on, some disappointing early losses, combined with an ever-growing medical room meant they never really had a chance to challenge for the flag. Though Fremantle ended the […]
2023 WAFLW Team of the Week: Round 3
LAST year’s WAFL Women’s grand finalists in Claremont and East Fremantle along with a gallant Subiaco all recorded a league-high four players in the Rookie Me Central Round 3 WAFL Womens’ Team of the Week. In an even spread for the round, six of the eight sides had three or more players, with Peel Thunder, […]
WAFLW R3 wrap: Sharks tame Lions
EAST Fremantle became the first side to defeat a much-improved Subiaco in season 2023 of the WAFL Women’s in what was a hard-fought six-point victory. The Sharks – who struggled with inaccuracy at times throughout the opening fortnight of the season – found the big sticks more often than not, then survived a second half […]
