Giants captain Beeson to play 75th AFLW match after concussion nearly ended her career

GWS captain Rebecca Beeson plays her 75th AFLW match in Melbourne on Sunday — the last remaining player from the club's inaugural 2017 list. In 2022, her third concussion in seven months sidelined her for a full season. Her 12-month rehab involved concussion specialists and a Melbourne neuropsychologist, and coincided with her father's sudden death. She returned in 2023, won her second best-and-fairest, and was voted captain in 2024.
