A classy ball winner, Ponter successfully made the transition from the AFLW Under-18 tournaments to her first senior AFLW season in 2019. One of the most efficient ball users, she kicked 13 goals in eight games, including three in the 2019 Grand Final victory against Carlton. After receiving a Rising Star nomination in Round Four, Ponter won her first AFLW Premiership in 2019. She then claimed the Crows’ leading goal kicker award in 2020, before playing a pivotal role in the Crows’ Season Six Premiership. Ponter is the niece of former Essendon great Michael Long and the cousin of former Hawthorn Premiership star Cyril Rioli. In 2023, Ponter kicked 20 goals, the most memorable of which was one from the centre square against Richmond. This tally allowed her to overtake Erin Phillips as the Crows' all-time leading goal kicker. In the same year, Ponter earned her first All-Australian selection. She kicked a career-best five goals in 2024 against Hawthorn at Unley Oval.
