BEFORE launching into the second half of the 2021 NAB AFLW season, it's time to take a look at the individual statistical leaders.

Collingwood (Brianna Davey and Britt Bonnici) and GWS (Alyce Parker and Bec Beeson) are well represented in the midfield statistics, while Freo powerhouse Kiara Bowers is averaging 4.4 more tackles than her nearest competitor, young Saint Tyanna Smith.

The Dockers are also leading the way in defence, with the unheralded Janelle Cuthbertson topping the competition for average intercept possessions.

It's a three-way tie at the top of the goalkicking tally, featuring two NAB AFLW Rising Star winners in Izzy Huntington and Chloe Molloy and the two-time AFLW best and fairest Erin Phillips.
