Just days after representing Williamstown against North Melbourne's VFLW side in early April 2023, Tripodi was taken by the Roos with the 23rd pick of the 2023 Supplementary Draft.

Mainly stationed inside forward 50 in her debut season, she went to work adding power and endurance to her game, transforming herself into an emerging inside midfielder with a huge defensive work ethic in 2024.

Having watched from the sidelines as the team lost the 2023 Grand Final, she became a crucial cog in the team’s mix, playing every game across 2024-25 to earn two premiership medals.
