"It feels like Pride runs through everything we do."
As the designer of this year's Pride Ball, Darcy Vescio reflects on the significance of Pride Round and its impact on the league.
It’s taken 10 seasons to get here for two giants of AFLW.
Universally respected on field & off, from teammates to opposition to fans, & the two most fitting players to hit this milestone first.
Plenty more to come from Ally & Noffy, and the rest of the players chasing them.
Have thoroughly enjoyed the AFLW analysis of the last few weeks from this gang.
The below on increased wages linked to increased scoring is obvious within the playing cohort and wider player movement, but nice to see it picked up here.
Active + practical support of women’s sport leads to tangible outcomes + progress for the athletes, the clubs, the leagues. 🙌

I’m still recovering from last night. Poppy Scholz, Sophie McKay, Ash Centra, Havana Harris, Lucia Painter 🥹🥹 I cannot wait to watch the rest of the first gamers over the weekend. This is going to be an epic opening round! #AFLW
@marnievinall Agree. On point.
"The talent is rising,the personalities are shining,& the stories behind the game–the banter, the gossip, the resilience –are worth sharing. We don’t want to be just like the men’s league. We’re building something that’s our own –more connected & more grounded."
Teammates say they'll do anything for each other, but Brisbane Lions AFLW star Nat Grider has taken that to another level... being the midwife for her teammate Kate Lutkins.

"It's really important that we identify & foster these footy brains".
It's tempting to always say there's "a long way to go" when it comes to women's involvement in coaching in AFL clubs, but I love this video's reminder that a lot has been achieved in a short time @aflwomens
Daisy Pearce and Erin Phillips represent two very different, but equally worthy versions of women in footy pre-AFLW. Erin pursued other sports after being told no, Daisy raised the standard of the then-VWFL to force the AFL’s hand. Two outstanding people who I am grateful for.
