Every AFLW Grand Final in history has featured either (or both of) the Adelaide Crows or Brisbane Lions - will that change?
Also, the Swans’ failure to make the finals means there still has never been an AFLW final played in Sydney where fans have been permitted to attend (the only such final, between GWS and Melbourne in 2020, saw a crowd lockout due to COVID; the season was ultimately cancelled).

First semifinal is locked in: 4 Hawthorn vs 5 Carlton.
Next Saturday either 3.05pm or 7.30pm. Pretty much the only two options.
Winner will dodge the Roos in preliminary stage.

But the Hawks or the Blues will have to travel to Brisbane in the prelim, if the Lions beat the Dees tomorrow.
It’s better by a mile. If my team was to be eliminated, at least they will go out with a goal.
Just my thinking.
In this afternoon’s finals, Brisbane overcame an early deficit to defeat Melbourne 56-43 at Ikon Park, then Adelaide thrashed St Kilda 60-16 at Norwood Oval.
The result is that the Lions are straight into a preliminary final at home, while Melbourne will host Adelaide in the semi final next weekend.
