Hannah Munyard (born 4 August 2001) is an Australian rules footballer who plays for Adelaide in the AFL Women's (AFLW).[1][2]

Early career

Originally from Strathalbyn, South Australia, Munyard played for Christies Beach and Mount Barker in her youth before being recruited by South Adelaide to play at amateur level.[3][4] She won back-to-back premierships with the Panthers in 2018 and 2019 in the SANFLW as an under-18 player.[1]

AFL career

Munyard was signed to the Western Bulldogs for the 2020 season as a free agent after missing out on the draft.[5] She made her league debut in round 4 of the same year during the defeat to West Coast.

After 3 games with the Bulldogs, Munyard was traded to Adelaide prior to the 2021 season.[5][6] She missed out for selection in the 2021 Grand Final against Brisbane, but returned the following year to be an integral member of the season 6 premiership team.[7] Munyard kicked one of the best goals of the 2024 season in round 6 against St Kilda with a checkside goal on the run.[8]
