Raise a Shoey!

The Outer Sanctum

We’re at the pointy end of the AFLW season, and as we count down to Saturday’s Grand Final, we review the preliminary finals and preview what’s to come. We reveal the inside word from the W awards, and consider the challenges of expansion and the trade season. In the melee we discuss allegations of racism from Cyril Rioli about his time at Hawthorn, and unpack some of the many issues raised. And we bid a sad farewell to women’s footy giant, Ann Rulton. Vale Ann.
