AN ULTRA impressive bounce back win from Swan Districts saw half a dozen players make our Round 11 WAFL Women’s Team of the Week, two more than next nearest Subiaco and Perth. Each side had a representative with six teams boasting multiple players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Captaining the side is hard-running Perth wing Jasmine Single<\/a> who had a big game against South Fremantle, racking up 29 disposals, three marks and six tackles, while Subiaco onballer Paige Sheppard<\/a> (31 disposals, four marks, five tackles and seven inside 50s) was named her deputy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Single had three other Demons in the side with her, as three-goal hero Taya Strickland<\/a> was named up forward, as was co-captain Isabella Shannon<\/a> and fierce midfielder\/forward Jorja Haines<\/a>. Sheppard was among four Lions as well, with one across each other line. Defender Beatrice Devlyn<\/a>, wing Hayley Corlett<\/a> and forward Aimee Schmidt<\/a> were the fellow Subiaco players in the Round 11 side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Swan Districts was by far the most prevalent team however, boasting six representatives including five on the field. Lead by skipper Eliza Gelmi<\/a>, the Swans also had Taylah Edwards<\/a> (three goals) and Kayley King<\/a> (two goals) up forward. Ruck Lauren Quaife<\/a> and midfielder Jaime Henry<\/a> were the other starters, while Indiana West<\/a> was named on the bench. Sophie Fisher<\/a> is the sole Falcons’ representative from the clash and can play across all three lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Peel Thunder broke through for another win and recorded three players in the side. Defenders Ebony Dowson<\/a> and Giaan Evans<\/a> lineup across half-back, while Ebony Bilcich<\/a> is on the interchange. They beat East Perth whose sole representative is Elly Sara<\/a>, while South Fremantle had two in midfielder Tahleah Mulder<\/a> and talented athlete Annalie Polimeno<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite going down to Subiaco, East Fremantle still managed three players in the side, the most of any losing side. The Sharks had bookends Leanne Gubbins<\/a> and Sarah Wielstra<\/a> as well as intercepting defender Madison Evans<\/a>. Midfielder Amber Kinnane<\/a> was one of three emergencies for Round 11 alongside East Perth’s Layla Firns<\/a> and Peel Thunder’s Chloe Wrigley<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2025 WAFLW TEAM OF THE WEEK: ROUND 11<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n B: <\/strong>Eliza Gelmi (Swan Districts) – Leanne Gubbins (East Fremantle) – Beatrice Devlyn (Subiaco) EMG: <\/strong>Layla Firns (East Perth) – Amber Kinnane (East Fremantle) – Chloe Wrigley (Peel Thunder)<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n
