Collingwood will face North Melbourne in a VFLW practice match on Saturday at Arden Street Oval.

With just two weeks remaining until the scheduled season opener on February 12, Saturday's hitout will give Pies fans an early look at last year's minor premiers ahead of our 2022 campaign.

10 of the VFLW’s 12 teams will be in action this week as the season draws within sight.

While all other matches have been scheduled for the normal season times of four 20-minute quarters, our match against the Kangaroos will be played in 18-minute quarters.
