AFLW action returns to the Coffs Coast this weekend, with the Sydney Swans hosting St Kilda Saints in the third round of the latest AFLW season.
The Swans and Saints play off at the C.ex Coffs International Stadium on Saturday, 29 August, from 4.35 pm.
It’s the third time the Swans have played in Coffs Harbour, but the side is yet to record a win here after losses to the Richmond Tigers in 2024 and the Essendon Bombers last season.
The Swans have won their opening two matches of the season to sit in fifth spot on the ladder, while the Saints have yet to record a win as they sit in last place.
The Swans women are coming off an emotion-charged game playing in front of a club record crowd of 16,672 at the SCG. They claimed their first win at the iconic venue – a 24-point victory against Essendon.
The match was part of the Swans’ first AFLW-AFL double-header.
Saturday’s AFLW match headlines a huge day of footy at the C.ex Coffs International Stadium, with the AFL North Coast senior grand finals to be played as a curtain-raiser.
