- Players are listed by guernsey number, and 2024 statistics are for AFL Women's regular season and finals series matches during the 2024 AFL Women's season only. Career statistics include a player's complete AFL Women's career, which, as a result, means that a player's debut and part or whole of their career statistics may be for another club. Statistics are correct as of week 10 of the 2024 season (2 November 2024) and are taken from Australian Football.
