AFLW season kicks off with a roaring crowd of over 20,000 at Docklands, as Carlton and St Kilda battle in a landmark double-header alongside the men’s games — a bold move aimed at boosting exposure and unifying the club experience. Players like Hannah Priest celebrate the moment as a triumph for the sport, while fans split opinions: some revel in the stadium energy and roofed comfort, others miss the intimate suburban vibe and feel the women’s game is sidelined. With attendance surging past recent international matches, the debate rages on — does this shared stage help or hurt AFLW’s identity? The big question now: how to harness the buzz without losing the league’s unique soul.
