Lachie Neale’s new flame Emma Field was all smiles on Saturday as she showed her support for the Brisbane Lions player as his team won the 2026 AFL Grand Final.
The 29-year-old was spotted in the stands at the big game, wearing a jacket with his name and jersey number emblazoned on the back.
Field uploaded photos to her Instagram page during the match which showed her sitting with friends Milly and Sophie Shepherd close to the footy field.
It comes just hours after the Lions star’s estranged wife Jules Neale was also making her grand final loyalties clear, delivering a not-so-subtle jab at him in a post uploaded to her Instagram stories.
As the countdown to the highly anticipated game unfolded at the MCG, Jules posed in a Dockers scarf alongside a friend, a playful show of purple pride as her ex-partner ran out in Brisbane’s colours.
It’s worlds away from where the family unit once found itself, with Jules lapping up the Lion’s grand final win in 2025, in a now-infamous photos featuring Tess Crosley – the woman at the centre of Lachie’s cheating scandal.
The couple separated after seven years of marriage following allegations of an affair involving Neale and Crosley, who had previously been close friends with Jules.
The former Fremantle Dockers player later apologised for his actions, stating: “I have let my family down, and I apologise for my actions that have let down those that are closest to me.”
Jules subsequently moved back to Perth with the couple’s two children and has removed all references to Crosley and Neale from her social media accounts.
Lachie has since moved on with his new girlfriend, who he was spotted out on a date with on Wednesday.
The couple were photographed packing on the PDA in Melbourne as they enjoyed a meal in the al fresco area of a café, dressed all in white.
