WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2.1 | 3.2 | 5.4 | 6.4 (40)<\/strong> GOALS: RMC BEST:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n WESTERN AUSTRALIA:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n #1 <\/strong>Indi Slocombe<\/a> Loved the fact that the sister of Ella<\/strong> (North Melbourne) took her chances by foot and was a high-risk, high-reward prospect. She did sometimes bite off a bit too much, but the vision to go into the corridor and risk turning it over in getting the ball to the open side or keeping it fast in transition was very good. Has some top-end traits with her technique and athleticism and finished with 11 touches and four inside 50s for her troubles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #16 <\/strong>Tiama Collard<\/a> Was very good on debut for Peel Thunder last week and brought that back to her own age group. She is so clean at ground level and attacks the contest hard, spending most of her time through the midfield but also playing at half-forward where she could link between the two areas. Racked up a game-high 27 disposals and was often seen in multiple disposal chains, while also picking up four clearances and laying seven tackles. Ticks so many boxes and has a nice balance of offensive and defensive attributes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #17<\/strong> Charlie Fletcher<\/a> Another Peel debutant from Round 1 and unlike her stint on the wing for the Thunder, got more of a shot inside and then at half-back. She accumulated the four clearances and laid a game-high 10 tackles, really signalling her intent from the start. Her simply elite athletic traits where she can turn on the explosiveness then go to another level mid burst leaves any opponent in her wake. She is raw, but naturally talented and once she gets going she impacts the game with high metres gained and a frantic defensive element too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #31 <\/strong>Bella Nelson<\/a> Played the Under 16s last year as a double bottom-ager and is still a bottom-ager in 2025, Nelson just always looks that class above with her combination of power, strength and skill. She has great vision, takes risks and though a right-footer, does not avoid putting it on her left if she needs which is a great trait to have. Playing off half-back and taking the kickouts most of the time, Nelson finished with 23 disposals, four marks and seven rebound 50s, often directing traffic from the back half and starting scoring chains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #32<\/strong> Hannah Seaborn<\/a> Her athletic traits are off the charts for a player of her size, and the way she is able to scrap at ground level makes her damaging in a number of ways. A big-bodied midfielder who competes well in the air or on the deck, Seaborn reads the play well and is able to get involved in transition. She can work back to help out behind the ball or present a target in the front half. Still developing some fundamental areas, she has some great upside given that size-athleticism scope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SOUTH AUSTRALIA:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n #2 <\/strong>Lillian Thomas<\/a> Really caught the eye with her work up both ends even though she was primarily a pressure forward. Thomas soccered home a goal from point-blank range seven minutes into the match and should have had another in the last term but her quick snap – which she roved off hands – was marked on the goalline. Thomas’ footy IQ and pressure stood out on the day, and while she did not rack it up, seemed to just keep being involved and her work rate was enormous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #4 <\/strong>Charlotte Maurits<\/a> The Central District midfielder predominantly played forward and has that class which indicates she is destined for bigger things in the future. Kicked a goal in the opening 30 seconds after a fantastic holding the ball free from a tackle, then finished off a play running into goal from a 45-degree angle. A left-footer with class, Maurits not only kicked two goals, but set up Thomas for her major as well. Had 10 touches, three clearances, three inside 50s and two goals, running at 75 per cent by foot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n #7 <\/strong>Lani Cocks<\/a> Cocks ended the match with the most disposals of any Croweater with 21, while also taking four marks, and having four inside 50s and three rebound 50s. The Redlegs junior won most of her ball behind the play and looked to. take the game on, but covered the ground well and found it at half-forward too. She has some great speed off the mark, and while there could have been a touch more composure at times, did set up a goal to Gribben early and got into the right spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #8 <\/strong>Maia Freemantle<\/a> Has become a regular in Woodville-West Torrens lineup and though it was not her most effective game in terms of disposal – she has been very impressive in that regard at SANFLW level – she still got involved, often fishing off handballs to release teammates around the contest. Freemantle looks comfortable under pressure in traffic and was one of a number of South Australian midfielders who shared the load, managing 20 touches, three clearances and four inside 50s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
