The AFLW Sydney Derby III came to Henson Park on Sunday 22 September. Fans and locals flocked to the hill at Henson Park as the Swans searched for a win after back-to-back losses and the Giants were out to defeat their crosstown rivals. Ably led by co‑captains Lucy McEvoy and Chloe Molly, the Sydney Swans started the season with a bang defeating Collingwood before losing to St Kilda and Richmond. After a tight, challenging game the Swans emerged victorious in this nail-biting derby with a 3 point victory only certain in the final minute of the game. The Swans have two more home games for this season, Saturday October 19 against the Gold Coast Suns and Saturday November 2 against the West Coast Eagles. I encourage everyone to come along and support these talented sportswomen and enjoy some local Inner West hospitality at the AFLW at Henson Park.
