Finally, Sacha McDonald was named the Mavs Reserves first-ever Best and Fairest winner.
Paying tribute to the entire squad, Mavs general Manager Shae Bolton Brown said: “While 2025 may not have delivered the results we hoped for on court, tonight was a powerful reminder of what we’re building off it.
“The passion, resilience and care shown by our players, staff, volunteers, and so many other key stakeholders is what makes this club special. Every award tonight tells a story of growth, grit and connection - and we’re proud of every person who contributed to our journey this season.
“Molly in particular has had a season that was nothing short of exceptional.
“Her work ethic, leadership and ability to lift those around her are what make her a true Maverick. This club is built on heart and hustle, and Molly embodies that in every way.”
