The VFLW teams for Round 15.

Lambert-Pearce medallist and two-time Big V representative Dom Carbone will return for Collingwood’s grand final rematch against North Melbourne Werribee at Arden Street Oval.

Carbone will be joined in the Magpies’ line-up by fellow AFLW-listed duo Zara Neuwirth and Amy Smith, in what shapes as a vital clash with progression directly through to the preliminary final the likely prize for the winner.

The Kangaroos have included dual premiership ruck Emma King for her first VFLW game since 2018, alongside Tessa Boyd and Sarah Ingram, with the later set to play her first match of the season.

Ireland representative Niamh Martin has been named for the Box Hill Hawks’ clash with Port Melbourne at Box Hill City Oval.

The Borough have recalled Keeley Fullerton but will be without Olivia Barton and Maggie McKellar.

2025 draftee Charlie O'Connor-Moreira will play her first match for the Western Bulldogs when they take on Darebin at Preston City Oval.

The Falcons will be without Lulu Beatty, who is unavailable.

Tayla McMillan will play her first game for Carlton since being drafted by the Blues in December when they host Geelong at IKON Park.

A Blues win would sew up a top-four finish, while the Cats must win to stay in the finals race and will need to do so without young midfielder Renee Morgan who has an ankle injury.

New Melbourne recruit Aoife Horisk will play her first game in the red and blue when Casey Demons take on Tasmania at Casey Fields on Sunday.

The Devils regain Georgia Nicholas among three changes.

STREAMING: All matches in the 2026 VFLW season will be live streamed free via the AFL website, AFL Live Official App and VFL App.
