Deanna Berry (born 7 May 1998) is an Australian rules footballer playing for the Western Bulldogs in the AFL Women's (AFLW). She has served as captain since the 2024 season.
Berry was drafted with the ninth selection in the 2016 AFL Women's draft by ‹See Tfd›Melbourne.
Early Life
[edit]Berry grew up in the Whittlesea region of Melbourne, playing her junior football for the Mernda Demons, alongside the Demons, she was selected to represent Vic Metro, as well as playing for Montmoerency and Melbourne University in the Victorian Women's Football League. Her leadership saw her captain the Calder Cannons Youth Girls academy.[1]
Her junior career saw her drafted by Melbourne with their second selection and ninth overall in the 2016 AFL Women's draft, ironically ensuring she remained a Demon.[2]
Career
[edit]Berry would make her debut in a fifteen point loss to Brisbane at Casey Fields, during the opening round of the 2017 season, the inaugural season for the AFLW.[3] She played every match during the season and after the final round match against ‹See Tfd›Fremantle—in which she recorded eleven disposals, three marks and two goals—she was nominated for the AFLW Rising Star.[4]
After one season with Melbourne, Berry was traded to the ‹See Tfd›Western Bulldogs during the 2017 trade period.[5]
During her first year with the Dogs, she would play six games, on her way to the Grand Final against the ‹See Tfd›Brisbane. Going into half time 6 points down, she would kick the first goal of the second half to level the scores, before the Dogs would kick away to enter the last quarter ahead by 13. A late comeback by the Lions was too late to earn the Bulldogs their first AFLW Premiership.[6]
During the Bulldogs 25 point win over ‹See Tfd›Greater Western Sydney she would suffer a ACL injury, ruling her out of the remainder of the 2021 AFLW season.[7] She would go on to sign a contract extension with the club on 16 June 2021, after playing 5 games for the club that season.[8]
Prior to the 2024 AFLW season, she would replace Ellie Blackburn as club captain[9], before playing her 50th AFLW match in a 11 point loss to ‹See Tfd›West Coast at Whitten Oval.[10][11] She would claim her first win as captain in a 42 point win over Collingwood.[12]
