The Roos withstood a wet-weather Launceston clash against Richmond last weekend, keeping their 2024 undefeated streak alive with a 12-point win over the resilient Tigers.

The opposition
The situation looked dire in Footscray after the Bulldogs succumbed to a fourth straight defeat to start the season, but back-to-back wins over Collingwood and Sydney have rocketed the tri-colours up to 12th on the ladder.
With Ellie Blackburn absent due to injury, Isabelle Pritchard has been a shining light for the Dogs, while ruck Alice Edmonds currently leads the League in hitouts per game, averaging 30.7.
