West Coast Eagles superstar Ella Roberts has continued her remarkable rise by claiming her third-straight AFLW Club Champion award.
The 21-year-old produced another outstanding campaign in blue and gold, averaging 21.7 disposals, 5.8 tackles and a career-high five clearances per game.
Roberts delivered one of her best performances in round five against Brisbane, amassing career-high tallies of 34 disposals and 11 clearances.
She was also instrumental in West Coast’s historic first victory over Fremantle in round eight, claiming her second Derby Medal following a dominant display.
Adding to her impressive haul, Roberts was also crowned the Fan MVP for the second consecutive year and received the Players Trademark Award.
Elite defender and co-captain Charlie Thomas finished runner-up in the Club Champion count for the third consecutive year after another excellent season.
Thomas recorded career-high marks and spoils in 2026, with her ability to read the play and halt opposition momentum remaining a hallmark of her game.
Speedy midfielder Jaide Britton earned her first podium finish, rounding out the top three following a strong season showcasing her endurance and work rate in the Eagles’ engine room.
Co-captain Bella Lewis and former skipper Emma Swanson finished in joint fourth place.
Powerful forward Amy Franklin was recognised as Leading Goal Kicker after booting 13 goals – the most by a West Coast player in a season.
Second-year Eagle Charlotte Riggs received the Emerging Talent Award after an impressive breakout year leading the ruck.
The 20-year-old used her strength, agility and aerial presence to compete against some of the competition’s leading rucks, while continuing to show exciting development around the contest.
Retiring ruck Liz McGrath was honoured with the Best Club Person Award, recognising the impact she has made across her two seasons in the blue and gold.
Fellow retirees and inaugural Eagles Belinda Smith and Sophie McDonald were also celebrated on the night for their contributions helping to shape the Eagles’ AFLW program.
McDonald played 37 games across seven seasons at the club, while Smith finishes her career with 72 games in the blue and gold and 87 AFLW appearances across 11 seasons.
Outgoing Head of Women’s Football Michelle Cowan was recognised for her significant contribution to the AFLW program as she transitions to a new role at West Coast.
