Julia Teakle named Vice Captain of Port Adelaide
We love seeing local talent shine on the big stage, and Julia Teakle is doing just that.
Hailing from Northampton in WA, Julia’s journey started with back-to-back league best and fairest titles in the Great Northern Football League. Fast forward a few years, and she’s now a standout forward for Port Adelaide in the AFLW.
Since making her debut in 2022, Julia has gone from strength to strength. She’s not only a skilled and versatile player on the field, but she’s also proving to be a natural leader, earning a spot in Port Adelaide’s emerging leader group in 2023 and stepping into the role of vice-captain in 2025.
Her honours speak for themselves:
Vice-captain (2025–present)
Coaches’ Award (2023)
22under22 Final Team (2024)
Julia brings both height and finesse to Port’s forward line, and with over 30 games under her belt, her impact is clear. We’re proud to see someone from our region kicking goals (literally!) and can’t wait to see what she achieves next.
Go Julia, we’re cheering you on all the way!
