Zoe Hargreaves is a versatile and hard-nosed midfielder who was recruited by Richmond with pick 20 in the 2024 AFLW Draft. A standout for the Northern Knights in the Coates Talent League, she finished runner-up in their Best & Fairest and was known for her elite two-way running, averaging over 20 disposals and 7 tackles per game.

Her draft profile highlighted her explosive first step, defensive pressure, and ability to win clearances and rebound 50s. She also represented Vic Metro in the U18 Championships, showcasing her composure and ball use against top-tier competition.

Unfortunately, Hargreaves suffered an ACL injury during training ahead of the 2025 AFLW season and will miss the year. Despite the setback, Richmond has backed her long-term potential, and she’s expected to return in 2026 with a strong rehabilitation plan already underway.
