Collingwood has elevated Lily-Rose Williamson to its AFLW list for the 2025 NAB AFLW Season.

The 20-year-old midfielder has been a standout for the Magpies throughout the 2025 rebel VFLW campaign, averaging 16.9 disposals, 5.8 tackles, 3.6 clearances and 2.4 inside-50s across 13 matches.

She joins the Magpies' AFLW list as a replacement player for injured midfielder Mattea Breed.

Williamson played eight AFLW games for Essendon prior to joining Collingwood this year.

She also featured in the inaugural rebel VFLW State Team in April, playing a key role in the team's win over the SANFL.

Collingwood Executive General Manager of Women's Football Jess Burger said Williamson had worked hard to earn a second shot at AFLW level.

With injury comes opportunity, and we are pleased to welcome Lily-Rose to our senior list,” Burger told Collingwoodfc.com.au. 

“Since arriving at Collingwood in our VFLW program, she has shown great drive to improve, bringing with her valuable football knowledge and experience.

“We’re excited for Lily-Rose’s attributes to be transferred across from the VFLW program and embedded further into the Club and AFLW squad.”
