Collingwood AFLW Senior Coach Sam Wright has named his side to face the Saints this Sunday afternoon, with Captain Ruby Schleicher amongst the inclusions.

Schleicher, who was a late out against the Eagles after sustaining a knock to the thigh in the Pies’ Round 7 clash with the Bulldogs, will suit up to lead out her side this Sunday.

It comes as 23-year-old midfielder Carly Remmos had been ruled out of Sunday’s clash at RSEA Park following an injury to her SC joint against the Eagles in Round 8.

After being managed in Round 8, 2024 father-daughter draftee Violet Patterson will return to the side alongside defender Annie Lee, who will come in for her seventh Collingwood game.

Mikayla Hyde and Muireann Atkinson have been omitted, while Alana Porter, Georgia Clark and Selena Karlson will serve as emergencies.

While this weekend will serve as the first week of the AFLW’s Pride Round, Sunday will provide even more cause for celebration as inaugural Pie Brit Bonnici prepares to run out for her 75th AFLW game.

Recording career best numbers in her 10th AFLW season, the 28-year-old midfielder has been a stalwart in Collingwood’s AFLW side since the competition’s inception in 2017.

Collingwood fans can watch the game live on Fox Footy and kayosports.com.au, with the first bounce at 3:05pm (AEST).
