North Melbourne Wins 22nd Straight, Crushes Crows to Move Within One of All-Time Record

Whole‑ground defence plus record‑level ball control has powered a league‑best scoring pace this season.

Overview

  • North beat Adelaide 10.11 (71) to 5.1 (31) at Arden Street Oval, where a ground‑record AFLW crowd of 3,282 watched the 40‑point result.
  • The Roos blitzed the opening term with five goals and held the Crows scoreless until early in the third quarter, asserting control across all four quarters.
  • Across 2025 they average 322.6 disposals with 67.4% efficiency and an AFLW‑record 73.7 points per game, built on a defence that has conceded the fewest average points in each of the past three seasons.
  • Jasmine Garner amassed 41 disposals and a goal, falling just short of Ash Riddell’s 45‑touch AFLW record and continuing North’s midfield dominance.
  • Adelaide slipped to sixth with tightened finals prospects while missing Chelsea Randall (concussion) and Caitlin Gould (wrist), as North next heads to North Hobart Oval to face St Kilda.
