This is a list of players from Western Australia to have played in the Australian Football League (AFL) and the AFL Women's (AFLW), the two pre-eminent competitions of Australian rules football.
Note that prior to the full professionalism of the game and the expansion of the Victorian competition nationally during the 1980s, most top level Western Australians played in the state-based WAFL competition and represented Western Australia in interstate matches.

Women's
editFremantle was the first professional women's team in the state in 2017, therefore the majority of the professional players have played there, the West Coast women's team was not awarded a license until 2020. Due to the large distance to the eastern states, most West Australian female players are drafted to one of these two teams.
