StreetSmarts SUNS Academy duo Lucy Single and Dekota Baron have been named finalists for the 2026 Coles AFLW Goal of the Year and 2026 Virgin Australia AFLW Mark of the Year, respectively.
Single’s unforgettable fend and finish from the boundary in the SUNS historic QClash win has placed the SUNS skipper in contention for the 2026 Coles AFLW Goal of the Year and a $50 000 cash prize.
Baron’s soaring specky in Round 5, just her second AFLW appearance, has landed the young forward a place among three finalists for the 2026 Virgin Australia AFLW Mark of the Year, with $50,000 and two million Velocity Points up for grabs.
Baron was back in the air in Round 7, with her strong hands against St Kilda earning the 19-year-old a second Mark of the Year nomination, as well as Rising Star honours. She is one of just two players to earn multiple nominations this season, alongside West Coast’s Charlotte Riggs (2).
SUNS fans, vote for your favorite goal and favourite mark for your chance to win $5000 thanks to Coles and $5000 thanks to Virgin Australia.
The overall winners will be determined by the AFLW All-Australian selection panel and announced at the 2026 W Awards on Monday, 23 November.
