West Coast AFLW player Courtney Rowley has hard-launched her relationship with men’s AFL player Tom Gross via an Instagram post.
The Eagles star posted a photo of Gross snuggled up to a golden retriever, with the young star also commenting with a pair of love hearts on the update.
Rowley’s AFLW teammates were delighted by the news, and some left messages of support in the comment section.
‘Yes yes yes,’ fellow Eagle Ella Roberts said.
‘So much to looooove,’ co-captain Bella Lewis added.
Gross joined West Coast in 2021 and has now represented the club in 36 matches.

Gross has become one of West Coast’s young talents after debuting for the club in 2025. He was taken with pick No.46 in the 2024 national draft after playing for Kew Rovers.
The new couple aren’t the first footy stars to hook up while playing for the same club.
Sydney Roosters stars Tommy Talau and Jessica Sergis are the most notable example in the NRL.
They recently got engaged just months after Talau joined Sergis at the eastern suburbs club.
Monique Conti and Rhyan Mansell are the most notable examples in the AFL, with the pair both starring for the Richmond Tigers.
