Julia Crockett-Grills (born 28 October 1994) is an Australian rules footballer with the Geelong Football Club in the AFL Women's (AFLW).

Crockett-Grills grew up in Kyabram, Victoria and played football as a child before leaving the sport due to the absence of women's teams. [1] When she was older, and living in Melbourne, she returned to playing local football with Scoresby and Knox. [1]

Crockett-Grills was recruited directly by Geelong from the VFL Women's league, where she played with the Box Hill Hawks, prior to the club's inaugural season in the AFLW. [2] She made her AFLW debut during the first round of the 2019 season, against Collingwood at GMHBA Stadium. [3]
