PLAYERS TO WATCH and THE OPPOSITION

Elly Sara continues to firm as one of East Perth’s best, picking up 25 disposals against Peel last round. Summer Mollross had 10 tackles against the Thunder, and Charli Bassett had 15 disposals and a goal. there will also be two debutants – keep your eyes peeled for an announcement!

Claremont are a side who need no introduction. Since the WAFLW’s inception, they’ve consistently been one of the top sides, and have taken home the premiership in 2022 and 2024. Dual Dhara Kerr medallist Jayme Harken is in sensational form again, averaging 25 disposals and starring in the state game against South Australia. Matilda Sergeant, Juliet Kelly, Sasha Goranova, and Sarah Viney have all been major ballwinners for Claremont this year and a reason why they are undefeated so far in 2025.
