General Manager Women’s Football Nicole Livingstone OAM said the final round of the Season Seven competition would be a suitable way to finish the season, while also spring-boarding the league into their first eight-team finals series.

“The Round 10 fixture is a fitting conclusion to a remarkable home and away season and a perfect lead to Week One of the AFLW Finals series,” Livingstone said.

“If the matches are anything like we witnessed last weekend, with four matches decided by four points or less, then I am sure it will be one of the best rounds of the season.

AFL EGM Clubs, Finance and Broadcasting Travis Auld thanked the industry for what has already been a great season.

“On behalf of the AFL, I want to thank all our passionate fans. I’d also like the acknowledge all 18 clubs, the AFLPA, coaches, umpires, officials, broadcasters, venues, state and territory governments and corporate partners on what has been a terrific season already,” Auld said.

“We’ve seen fantastic contests across six rounds already, and I have no doubt that the remaining four rounds and four weeks of finals will be just as spectacular.”
