Squad

Players are listed by guernsey number, and 2021 statistics are for AFL regular season and finals series matches during the 2021 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 Round 23 of the 2021 season (22 August 2021) and are taken from AFL Tables.

Squad

Players are listed by guernsey number, and 2021 statistics are for AFL Women's regular season and finals series matches during the 2021 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 the preliminary final of the 2021 season (10 April 2021) and are taken from Australian Football.
