Conti, who was crowned the AFLW’s best player in 2023, also plays in the WNBL with Geelong United.

The multi-talented athlete won her sixth Richmond AFLW best and fairest award in December.

When she won the league award she thanked her boyfriend Davo at the time who couldn’t be there due to interstate commitments. Five years ago Conti was in a relationship with then Tigers young gun Sydney Stack.

Mansell, a promising small forward, grew up in Tasmania and was previously engaged.

Earlier this season he was controversially suspended for three matches for pushing his St Kilda opponent Liam O’Connell into a marking contest and injuring him.

He’s played 12 games this season for a total of 65 since his debut with the Tigers in 2021.
