The Devils will unleash two fresh faces against North Melbourne in the VFLW on Saturday at North Hobart Oval.

As announced on Thursday, Jemma Blair and Claire Ransom will both play their first games for Tasmania.

A proud product of the Tasmania Devils pathway, Ransom played two games for the Gold Coast Suns before joining the GWS GIANTS ahead of the 2024 season. 

The 22-year-old featured in 11 games for the GIANTS across two seasons to take her AFLW career tally to 13 games. 

Blair, a clean and skilful defender, has already proven her credentials at VFLW level having previously played five games for North Melbourne in 2021 and 2022.

The 23-year-old, who captained the Tasmania Devils at underage level, returned home to Tasmania earlier this season after three seasons playing for Bond University in the QAFLW.

Jessie Williams (knee) and Taia Lette (ankle) will miss Saturday’s encounter after sustaining injuries in the defeat to Port Melbourne last weekend.
