We're dropping an episode of our sister podcast, Good Weekend Talks, into your feed today as it features an interview with Real Footy star panellist - Libby Birch - ahead of the 2025 AFWL season opener on Thursday.

Since joining the league in its inaugural season, Birch has played 91 consecutive games of AFLW (only two women have played more), and at just 27, has more than a few years left.

She's a media performer of note, bringing sharp analysis to a TV special commentary role, as a radio pundit for 3AW, and as a columnist for The Age – not to mention a buoyant voice on our own Real Footy podcast.

Birch has also become a published author, just releasing “Libby’s Footy Adventures” – the first ever children’s book by an AFLW player. Hosting this conversation is Good Weekend senior writer Konrad Marshall.
