Giants are playing 8 of their AFLW listed players (including Jess Doyle and Georgie Fowler) to our two.

Completely lopsided team lineups?

Completely lopsided team lineups?

Talent-wise yes. They have access to Southern NSW/ACT for players while we don't. This doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

Agreed. I figured we'd get walloped but didn't expect it to be that bad though

Season seven of the AFLW will now commence in the last weekend in August, and consist of ten home-and-away rounds and a four-week finals series, with the Grand Final to be held on the last weekend of November.

The CBA deal will result in a substantial pay rise of an average of 94 per cent across all four payment tiers, with players having been particularly keen to have their unpaid hours (maintaining fitness, recovery etc) recognised in the new deal.
