Season 7 AFLW preview: Collingwood

IT was a tough pill to swallow last season for Collingwood, with the Magpies coming off a kick away from a grand final, to losing two of their best players and limping to the line in Season 6. Now looking ahead to Season 7, Collingwood will still be without star onballers Brianna Davey and Brittany […]

AFLW clubs dust off cobwebs ahead of season

THOUGH the official practice matches kick off next weekend, 16 of the 18 clubs engaged in either unofficial practice matches or match simulations over the past week.

2022 AFLW 10 under 10 to watch: Bridie Kennedy

IN a unique series for the lead-up to the 2022 AFL Women’s Season 7, Rookie Me Central will look at 10 players to watch this year who have played under 10 games. Whilst it would be easy to pick those who finished high in last year’s Rising Star, or top picks this year, we have […]

AFLW Hypothetical teams: Odds vs. Evens

AS Season 7 of the AFL Women’s approaches, Rookie Me Central has taken a fun spin on a hypothetical match: jumper numbers.

AFLW REWIND | 2017 Trade Period

IT is amazing to think that more than five years ago the first AFL Women’s season came to a conclusion and the first official off-season commenced.

AFLW Sunday Talking Points: Round 7

IN a game that had important implications shaping the top six on the ladder, North Melbourne continued to show why it may be a dark horse, getting the chocolates over Collingwood at North Hobart Oval by 23 points, 6.2 (38) to 2.3 (15). With teams such as the Gold Coast Suns and Western Bulldogs wanting […]

AFLW Sunday Talking Points: Round 6

ONE premiership contender held firm against a bottom four side, whilst another went down in one of the tightest days of AFL Women’s action this season. Brisbane managed to starve off a determined St Kilda at Trevor Barker Oval and Collingwood proved too good for West Coast in Perth, while Western Bulldogs caused the upset […]

AFLW Friday Talking Points: Pies survive Cat fight

IT was far from an easy win, but Collingwood travelled back up the highway with the four points after a tackle-slog with Geelong. In what was a game on a knives edge for the most part, both sides were neck-and-neck right until late in the final term, when the Pies were finally able to gain […]

AFLW Round 3 to go ahead despite challenges

ANOTHER round of AFLW action is upon us, and COVID-19 protocols have again popped up, forcing another game to be cancelled.
