Chloe Molloy set to join Sydney coaches in off-field role after suffering season-ending ACL injury

AFLW superstar Chloe Molloy is considering a possible role in the Sydney coaches’ box after being ruled out of action for the rest of the season with a knee injury.

Molloy ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee in an innocuous training incident last week and was a late withdrawal from the Swans’ Round 2 clash with St Kilda on Sunday.

Sydney coach Scott Gowans regards Molloy as “irreplaceable” on the field, but is eager to put his sidelined co-captain to good use elsewhere, and the 25-year-old is open to anything that will help her team.

“I asked pretty much straight away what I could do,” Molloy said.

“The mindset was, ‘All right, I can’t play, what can I do now?’

“I’ll push my hat into whatever the team needs from me; whether that’s insight, coaching or whatever it may be down on the bench or up in the box.

“Physically I can’t do anything, but I think I still have a lot to give.”

Molloy, who won her third All-Australian blazer last season, battled a string of serious injuries earlier in her career but felt primed for another big year in 2024.
