Player Watch #31 Laura Gardiner

She's fantastic, ruddy SA teams are going to come after her sooner or later but hope we can hold onto her.

Why would the SA teams be of interest to her? Isn't she from Geelong originally?

Huh. So she is. I was convinced she was from SA. Apparently not

Midfielder Gardiner will remain in the red and white for a further four years until the end of 2027 season, while Tarrant has re-committed for another two seasons.

Gardiner has been an exceptional addition to the club, dominating in her inaugural season to win the Sydney Swans AFLW Club champion award.

Winning the club’s highest individual honour capped off a stellar year of achievements for Gardiner, who also earned her first All-Australian blazer and finished second in the AFL Coaches Association AFLW Champion Player of the Year.

The 20-year-old featured in all 12 games for the Sydney Swans, finishing second in the league for disposals and tackles, averaging 29 and nine respectively.

Fantastic news! Really important to our core group as long termers with Chloe and Ally.

Having the club get behind me and all the girls support me in my position and role on the field really helped. It made me feel comfortable and I felt like I was at home straight away,” she shared.

Gardiner: “It was an opportunity to prove myself.”

Giving back. Fantastic.

I'm tipping Laura to go to yet another level this season. She's going to be a star for us for a long time to come. I'm not sure when she's out of contract but I can see us re-signing her for a long contract next time around (which, in AFLW terms is 3+ years) - the longer the better as far as I'm concerned.
