Squad

Players are listed by guernsey number, and 2023 statistics are for AFL regular season and finals series matches during the 2023 AFL season only. Career statistics include a player's complete AFL 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 the Grand Final of the 2023 season (30 September 2023) and are taken from AFL Tables.

Squad

Players are listed by guernsey number, and 2023 statistics are for AFL Women's regular season and finals series matches during the 2023 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 round 10 of the 2023 season (5 November 2023) and are taken from Australian Football.
