17 AFLW GAMES IN 2026

Giving women just 12 regular season games in 2025 was a blatant failure by the AFL to allow the girls to be fully functioning professionals. There needs to be a strong commitment on all sides for a 17 game season for the women starting in 2026.

GIVE THE GIRLS MORE GAMES BECAUSE THEY DESERVE THEM

GIVE THE GIRLS MORE GAMES BECAUSE THEY DESERVE THEM

Last nights performance by North Melbourne at Icon Park was a powerful arguement for more womens’ football.

The crowd roared again for Emma King’s powerful pack mark:

Savour the spectacle of Irish star Blaithin Bogue almost simultaneously kicking the ball AND bumping her opponent.

Bella Eddey’s teammates get around her after a great goal.

It is an absolutely ridiculous injustice that the wonderful football of these women can only be seen in 12 regular season games a year while the men are on show for 23.
