Demons cult figure Tayla Harris and fiery Tigers midfielder Kodi Jacques, 21, have been dating since late 2020 and are seen by their supporters as a power couple.
Since the AFLW’s first season in 2017, its popularity has skyrocketed, with women increasingly being recognized as great athletes in their own right rather than just football WAGs. Although many people were initially reluctant to disclose details of their relationships for fear of heinous abuse, this has gradually changed.
The two train together frequently and hang out with their border collies, Beans and Elaine, on their Instagram profiles. Instead of sappy, romantic messages, these images usually feature amusing banter, like Harris poking fun at Jacques.
The top athlete frequently questioned why she was a target given the image which showed off her incredible athleticism and connection to her spouse. The Harris documentary remembers being mocked shortly after his now-famous 2019 kick.
Having lost three consecutive AFLW finals since 2017, the talented striker will be aiming to lift the Premiership trophy with the Demons later this year.
