Port Adelaide midfielder-forward Jemma Charity will miss the upcoming AFLW season after scans confirmed a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in her left knee. 

The 19-year-old had recently returned to full training after recovering from an ACL injury to the same knee in 2024, before suffering the setback during a training session in the second week of pre-season. 

Charity will undergo reconstructive surgery in the coming week before beginning her rehabilitation program at the club.
