ROUND four sees many TAC Cup Girls stars come into line-ups for their first ever stint in the Victorian Football League (VFL) Women’s. The Western Bulldogs, Williamstown, Casey and Essendon are the teams without wins at the moment and would be keen to get on the board this weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Coming off the bye, Melbourne Uni have made no team changes with all players well rested after their round three bye. Calder Cannons’ jet Madison Prespakis<\/strong> has been named as the 23rd player and will no doubt be one to watch throughout the season.<\/p>\n On the other hand, Thunder have made seven changes to their side. They have called upon five debutants to take to the field including Sally Riley, Kylie Duggan, Jemma Iacono, Sophia Mauboy<\/strong> and Sue Nalder<\/strong>. Also pulling on the Thunder jumper for the second time this season will be Adelaide AFLW players, Sophie Armitstead<\/strong> and Marijana Rajcic<\/strong>. However, the Thunder do lose Palmerston Magpies talent, Janet Baird<\/strong>. Lucy Adam, Michelle Ellis, Tahlia Holtze, Rhiannon Metcalfe<\/strong> and Deni Varnhagen<\/strong> will all be rested while Eloise Jones<\/strong> is out with illness.<\/p>\n Melbourne Uni<\/strong><\/p>\n B: 20.

Their opposition will be looking for their third win of the season after last week\u2019s pumping against Richmond. Collingwood AFLW defender, Sarah D\u2019Arcy<\/strong> will be a big out for the Magpies, however the addition of Collingwood’s AFLW vice-captain, Brittany Bonnici<\/strong> should bring experience back to the side. Collingwood also look to bring in Bianca Jones<\/strong>, Grace Knox<\/strong>, Ally Bild,<\/strong> as well as Oakleigh Chargers’ pair Hannah McLaren<\/strong> and Daisy Bateman<\/strong> in place of Paris Davey<\/strong> and AFLW players, Ruby Schleicher<\/strong> and Sarah Dargan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Western Bulldogs<\/strong><\/p>\n B: 18.

GWV Rebels defender, Georgia Clarke<\/strong> has been named as 23rd player, replacing Bianca Cheever<\/strong>. Lara Williams, Emily Ramsay<\/strong> and Maddison Janssen<\/strong> have also been named out for round four.<\/p>\n Carlton have made six bold changes to their line-up. The biggest of them all is perhaps Gippsland Power co-captain, Tyla Hanks<\/strong> making her debut for the side. She has been part of the AFLW Academy and will hopefully bring the Blues the class they missed against Hawthorn last week. Also coming in is newly appointed vice-captain, Katelyn Cox<\/strong> and AFLW players, Sarah Hosking, Kerryn Harrington<\/strong> and Lauren Brazzale<\/strong>. Jorja Borg<\/strong> has also been recalled to the side as 23rd player.<\/p>\n Geelong Cats<\/strong><\/p>\n B: 26. R. Pearce, 44. R. Goring, 35. K. Woodroffe In: M. Klingbeil , M. Maguire, G.

Dandenong Stingrays defender,\u00a0Shelley Heath\u00a0<\/strong>has been named as an emergency.\u00a0<\/p>\n Essendon’s ins include an exciting TAC Cup Girls product in Oakleigh Chargers ruck, Bridie Winbanks<\/strong>. Winbanks has been named as the 23rd player and would be hopeful of a debut at Sandringham. However, there is a massive out in the side with key forward, Danielle Ponter<\/strong>\u00a0taking to the sidelines.<\/p>\n Southern Saints<\/strong><\/p>\n B: 11. T. Annear, 14. I. Quintal, 26. A.

The side also has no shortage of TAC Cup Girls talent with\u00a0Bendigo Pioneers captain, Megan Williamson\u00a0<\/strong>and GWS forward,\u00a0Sophie Van De Heuvel\u00a0<\/strong>making their debut for the Seagulls.<\/p>\n Richmond have made four changes in the lead up to their contest against Williamstown.
