Carlton defender Harriet Cordner and midfielders Dayna Finn and Erone Fitzpatrick have been selected for the Australian and Irish squads respectively for the inaugural AFLW Australia v Ireland match in August.

Finn had an extraordinary 2025 season, earning her first All-Australian blazer and claiming the coveted Best and Fairest medal. An elite runner and nimble winger, Finn was influential on the wing, averaging 347 metres gained and almost four score involvements per game.

Cordner led the competition in intercept marks (3.7) and intercept possessions (9.5) per game, cementing her reputation as one of the competition's premier defenders. She earned her place in the 2025 All-Australian team and finished second in the Blues' Best and Fairest.

Cordner & Finn on AFLW Season 10

Sit down with Harriet Cordner and Dayna Finn as they reflect on their All-Australian seasons.

AFLW Senior Coach Mathew Buck said he was proud of all three players for their selection.

"Harriet, Erone and Dayna have put in tireless work to get themselves to where they are and we are thrilled to see it recognised on the national stage," Buck said.

"Harriet's work ethic sets the standard for the rest of the team. She is relentless in her preparation and the epitome of a true professional and that shows in her ability to perform at her best when it matters most.

"Erone has shown what it truly means to put in the work and be resilient. To come back from a full season out, earn a leadership role, an All-Australian nomination, and now represent getting to represent Ireland, it is a testament to her character as much as her ability.

"Dayna is the ultimate professional, disciplined, determined and in the form of her life. To win our Best and Fairest and earn an All-Australian blazer in the same season is a remarkable achievement and we can't wait to see her represent her country.

"We are absolutely thrilled to have Harriet, Erone and Dayna selected for their respective sides and can't wait to watch on in August."
