Overview
- North Melbourne are undefeated minor premiers, with Hawthorn, Melbourne and Brisbane locked in for finals as the top four.
- Carlton face West Coast in Perth in a match that effectively leaves room for only one, with Ella Roberts’ hamstring status pivotal for the Eagles and Tara Bohanna flagged as a key Blues weapon.
- Adelaide host Fremantle in the last game of the round in an elimination-style fixture where the winner is well placed to progress and the loser likely exits.
- St Kilda can secure a first AFLW finals appearance by beating the Western Bulldogs, with percentage still a factor for positioning.
- Sydney need a win over Essendon then favorable results elsewhere, with AFL.com.au’s predictor tipping the Swans to squeeze in and West Coast to miss.
