All the teams for Week Two of the rebel VFLW Finals Series.

Williamstown and Port Melbourne have both suffered significant blows to their premiership chances with star players being ruled out for the rest of the finals series due to injury.

Seagulls captain Eliza Straford, who kicked a crucial goal in the qualifying final victory over Western Bulldogs, received an unfavourable scan on a knee injury on Monday and won’t play again this year, while the Borough have lost three stars.

Key forward Emily Harley hurt her achilles in the elimination final win over Box Hill Hawks, while Jessie Williams, who kicked two crucial goals, has entered concussion protocols and can’t return unless they make the Grand Final. Tackling machine Courteney Bromage also succumbed to a knee injury.

Mikayla Plunkett has been named to replace Straford for Williamstown’s second semi final against an unchanged North Melbourne at DSV Stadium on Sunday.

Port regains ball magnet Ava Seton from suspension for the first semi final against the Bulldogs at Mission Whitten Oval on Saturday, with Georgia Pruden and Abbigail Rabot also earning recalls to replace their three injured teammates.

The Bulldogs recalled Jorja Livingstone in place of Jaime Henry for the sudden death final.

All matches in the 2024 rebel VFLW season will be live streamed free via the AFL website, AFL Live Official App and VFL App.
