Its a night, but it’s all about her! AFL stars take on a supporting role for their WAGs on the 2023 Brownlow Medal red carpet

On Monday it was the night of nights for Australia’s biggest AFL stars.

But at the 2023 Brownlow Medal, the footballers were once again thrown out of the spotlight as their wives and girlfriends stole the show in their stunning designer gowns.

Many players took on supporting roles for their partners as they helped the women on the red carpet – adjusting and adjusting their dresses before posing for photos.

Richmond star Daniel Rioli was one of the first noble gentlemen to help his partner Paris Lawrence.

He was seen carefully adjusting her satin skirt and the sheer fabric that floated down her shoulders.

Daniel opted for a sharp suit, while Paris made sure all eyes were on her in a corseted light blue satin dress.

It included glittering embellishments and sheer panels, as well as ruched skirting with a daring slit.

Elsewhere, Geelong captain Patrick Dangerfield had his partner Mardi Harwood by his side.

Essendon star Mason Redman followed the evening’s trend in a black tuxedo, while his partner Emma Shepherd wore a daring black dress.

She smiled as she patiently waited for her date to drape her long black train across the red carpet.

Emma’s dress featured sheer panels and corset detailing, as well as a thigh-high slit and a flowing satin base.

Carlton captain and 2022 Brownlow winner Patrick Cripps and his wife Monique were a lovely couple, with Monique in an embroidered halter dress in a deep shade of grey.

Patrick’s efforts followed naturally from the couple’s previous red carpet appearances at Brownlow, where he carefully held the edges of Monique’s dress.

Monique looked glamorous and styled her hair open before the pair smiled and hugged each other.
