VFLW 2026 Squad

Possible junior top-up coming off a big game (mostly mid, but also stints forward and back).

Gladman has been assistant coaching at Oakleigh Chargers.

From Dom Carbone (fellow NT-er) – TayHartAluni finally playing after breaking her leg at the end of 2024.

And a few of us in support:

Named in the bests with two goals in Fitzroy Stars’ 130-2 destroyation of Hurstbridge.

Based on tonight’s MaggieG production:

  • Tyrell back to at least full-running
  • C Hunt and Prpic laps
  • Bateman still has right shoulder strapped, but participating fully?
  • Albrecht active
  • Some are still wearing wrong numbers :enraged_face:

Ended on the EDFL site today and:

  • Isabelle Porter 2 bests and 3 goals from 3 games
  • Gilcrist our only current player represented: 3 goals from her 1 game with Strathmore
  • Liv Lacy is still 18yo and has been playing seniors premier league at Keilor for four years

For future reference as top-ups from either team:

That’s a fat-arse texta.

Key players lost since 2025: Abbey McDonald. That is all. Numerically smallest loss of important players since this team was created, by a long way.

She’s individually a ■■■■■■■ huge loss, though, and our season will probably depend on who stands up in the midfield. Injury permitting, I am MUCH less worried about the backs and (gasp!) forwards.

Balance may be an issue (too tall/too slow – conflict between “best players” and “best mix”).



(After her first practice match quarter I would have included Eva Harris as a big loss, but she showed no form after eventually returning from that knee injury. And the additions of Owen and Hishongwa-Gibb look to have covered that.)

Once she arrives from Dublin, Emma Dineen is now an extremely likely AFLW top-up.

Lots of videos etc from Photo/Launch Day, including a short one on Prpric coming back from a right knee injury:

Let’s hope this year we don’t run out of crutches…

(Not all of) the people who keep it ticking over.

Haven’t seen Hales or Robinson for a bit (including at the launch).

Available numbers are 53, 69, 76, and 78. Robinson has lost #80 to SpringBrown.

Has now played 3 games in succession. 2/2/0 goals and each time named in the best six.
