TAHLIA Fellows will play her first game of AFLW in Demon colours on Saturday, confirmed to make her club debut when Melbourne faces Gold Coast.
The 26-year-old joined the Dees in August, on the eve of the 2026 season, and has settled into the club with ease, earning her selection in Round 9.
Fellows arrived at the club with 18 AFLW games under her belt, having been a member of Hawthorn's inaugural AFLW squad, playing across three seasons between 2022 and 2024.
Following her time at Hawthorn, she remained in the football world becoming a standout player for Collingwood’s VFLW side.
In 2025, she was named in the VFLW State Team representing the Big V in their match against the SANFLW. She earned best-on-ground honours during the historic match, kicking four goals and spurring on a Big V win.
Her speed and agility will add further depth to Melbourne’s forward line, as the Dees travel to Mackay to face the Suns in search of an eighth win.
