[Aristarchus]

Excellent, our most important forward. Always amazed how quickly she picked up Aussie Rules.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Going to be interesting
Youd assume stratton gets shown the door, and exom is a fill-in so probably doesnt get another contract (she is a fill-in for thebplayer that walked out)
Leaves 1 more player to move on from the out of contract players.

WE may see a player being shown the door while still in contract, as i just d9nt see the club wanting to show the door to the remaining players

 

[streetspirit]

in addition to Exon, train on BHH VFLW players Matilda Van Berkel and Paige Price have been given #30 and #32 now with our injury crisis. Van Berkel has been named an emergency for the final

Still a lot to play out with which of the more high profile players are likely to leave due to facing pay cuts with the fixed tiered player contracts and other changes (TLR, Gilroy etc) and how hard we feel we need to cut, but yeah at first glance I would imagine it would be players like Exon, Stratton, Kemp and Butterworth on the outer and feeling nervous.

Seems like tilly will go, purely based on the media is speculating, and when that happens in the aflw, it tends to happen.

Gilly told me at the start of the year that 2026 was going to be it, but media again says she may retire (change of heart after an injur interrupted year?)

Ill be surprised if butterworth gets delisted.
She is rated internally, but still has a bit to work on. If it was a 40 player list like the mens she gets kept on.

Ainslie will get kept if she isnt chased by another club. This is a training standards thing and not necessarily a personel thing.
Aflw has a very strict no contact clause on players, so it is up to the players to organise their own off-season. Kemp is the leader of this, and i know webster rates this

 

[Aristarchus]

Without trying to shade the specific players, but if we're going into next season without TLR and Gilroy, but keeping Ashmore and Sheriff I'll be very perplexed especially if as a team they're meant to take that next step.

 

[streetspirit]

Ashmore is already contracted for next year though so guess it’s more a process of elimination on those believed to be out of contract - including Sherrif, TLR and Gilroy

Just because shes contracted doesnt mean she wont be moved on.
Would be a ballsy move, but webster isnt afraid of making tough choices

 

[streetspirit]

Stratts and Exon the first confirmed departures

In what everyone here probably understands is likely a last hurrah, Gilroy signs on for next year

Gilroy to go again

Aileen Gilroy has signed a one-year deal to remain at the club in 2026.
