Taken from the AFLW website, everything reported on the AFLW website can pretty much be confirmed as official as it’s just drip fed official AFL media releases:

Can’t imagine all these months of just running around West Lakes is that stimulating for the playing group. All those months away from the football club, pay increases and majority probably studying part-time and aged in their early 20s it did make me wonder if that off-field incident with the...

Do start to wonder how many beatings of Vic Metro by SA’s underage teams will it take before AFL Victoria do away with Vic Metro & Vic Country and put up a combined Vic team instead at these sorts of championships. Smacked ‘em at under 16 and 18 level for a couple of years now. Younger sister...

Been confirmed Lauren Young unfortunately done another ACL on the weekend and will miss the season for Port. Two ACL’s is tough to come back from as a player let alone when you’re still a teenager, hope she can get back to show her talent at AFLW level at some stage. Just unfortunately very...

So it looks like Boileau saved her best for last given they said in the pre-SANFLW season media release round 5 was the cut off date for AFLW listed players… ⭐️ Thank you Port Power. Also talk about a form turn around… Would probably petition to give Tarlinton a few more games after kicking...

In other off-season news, Marinoff headed up to Queensland to participate in a special training camp with ‘Enhanced Football’, which is the organisation run by Ben Stanley who is a phenomenal skills coach, I’d say the best not tied down to AFL clubland and pretty much one of the main reasons...

Time for the weekly look over what happened with the Crows listed players in the SANFLW over the weekend… Brooke Boileau the stand out once again, pretty much gets 20 and a goal every week. Had 22 and a goal on Saturday to go with 7 tackles and 6 clearances, might have to start nicknaming her...

A few standout performances in the SANFLW for some Crows players that featured last weekend, I suppose the main positive is Glenelg are finally showing Clarke & co. what I have long thought - Brooke Tonon is a forward not a defender, kicked 2 goals 2 weeks in a row, she had 5 scoring shots on...

Looks like Boileau, Kustermann & Goodwin all solid again this week, Allen got a lot more of the ball this week compared to last week too. All the rest very quiet and little influence, worried about an injury to Levy, was on 6 disposals at the start of the 2nd quarter and that’s what she stayed on.

If Tarlinton continues to be played in the backlines by the Eagles it’s going to give me distinct pre-2014 new AFL Crows draftees being played in wrong positions or in the SANFL reserves vibes.

Yeah with the new CBA multi-year deals can be agreed to, given the CBA runs until the end of 2027 most top players are signing 4 year extensions to the end of 2027 when the next CBA will be most likely be in place. Marinoff & Hatchard’s 4 year contract extensions were pretty much announced just...

Pretty strong showing from a few of those players over the weekend. Taylah Levy turning up on the Eagles team sheet was a bit of a shock, move from the Panthers hadn’t been posted anywhere in any previews until the teams dropped, the move to a new team obviously didn’t faze her as she just...

https://www.afl.com.au/aflw/news/1074709/power-and-crows-players-to-line-up-in-this-years-sanflw-comp Some further clarity on SANFLW participation from AFLW listed players in that article, they’ll only be available to play in the SANFLW’s first 5 rounds. Whilst I agree the big break between...

Article on the AFC website stating up to 10 players will play some games in the SANFLW this year. https://www.afc.com.au/news/1484852/aflw-crows-set-to-take-part-in-sanflw Mentions Goodwin, Tonon, Allen, Kustermann, Waterhouse, Smith and new draftees Tarlinton, Henry & Boileau in the article...

Saw that a a couple of weeks ago, she did say previously she was going to do the full marathon but it looks like it got changed to the quarter late on, made me wonder if it wasn’t something to do with the club and/or more likely the AFLPA that may have prohibited her from entering a full...

Jeez 9 months is a long way out and an especially long time to wait to see if any of Clarke’s views/team mantra’s including the experience preferences he’s held over recent seasons will change and whether he jumps on to what is really becoming an obvious generational shift in talent league wide...

Helluva show of faith in Brooke Tonon to sign her to the end of 2025 considering they have a penchant for dropping her every 2nd week. Interesting the mix of who’s signed on for 2 years and those that have just signed on for the 1 year deal, feel it is either an attempt at creative salary cap...

Mentioned in the article she’s staying in Ireland until the completion of the next Ladies GAA season for Donegal which is around April so the SANFLW running March-June means she could but it’s doubtful as the Crows will probably prefer to keep her development in-house. You’d think it’s academic...

True, it also ends up being that Hannah’s and probably Rachele’s best contribution to football and the football club might be that they brought Chelsea Biddell down to West Adelaide to give football a go.

Well they further confirmed it after announcing it last week with that total “could be re-drafted” nonsense. Her first knee-reco was the one that stopped her having any possibility of a solid career at AFLW level. When she started her main weapon was her lateral movement and ability to side...

From memory though they did need talls especially after Wardlaw departed & they went and got Jennifer Dunne from Ireland and then picked up Analea McKee from Geelong’s VFLW team as their late signing instead. So it’s not obvious going by the short 1 minute clip but they must’ve not rated...

Crows have basically already gone national this draft, it’s actually such short sightedness by the Vics considering this SA having multiple top 5 talents in the land is not going to last long and was more just an anomaly compared to most draft classes, it will quickly correct it self to be an...

Looking at Tamara Henry’s highlights the one thing that stands out more than anything is the strength through the hips, just powerful. I know they listed her standout athletic traits as the main highlights and some inconsistencies with ball in hand but looks like an out and out footballer who...

Looking at Lily Tarlinton’s highlights they posted and they look pretty promising, looks very nimble for a tall, got some footy smarts and has pretty good coordination. Was a train-on for the Lions and around their squad in the past so do wonder why no contract was ever offered, hopefully a...

Yeah screamed like a ‘behind closed doors’ deal

Lily Tarlinton certainly has some interesting ‘tough stickers’ on the arms…

Tarlinton has played a lot of ruck as a junior apparently so looks like a McKinnon replacement to me. Doubtful she would’ve been in their thinking without McKinnon’s departure. Well I wanted them to draft Boileau, a forward and tall coverage and they have, can’t complain. Also again further...

They’ve finally gone to raid the Amazonian Queensland Athletes

Like Smith looks like they have selected her a lot off the back of her athletic profile, if she matches her profile could be handy. 170cm is kinda in between height at AFLW.
